man knoweth not what is meant by this words Apostata it may here be said that Apostata is he that forsaketh either the faith whiche in Baptisme he promised to keepe or that Rule and Order of Religious life whiche by solemne vow and open protestation at his entrie into Religion he promised to leade his life in Of the first sorte Iulianus that wicked Emperour and Porphyrius are examples So are the great Soldans Mammaluches and many of the great Turkes Ianizaires Of the second sorte be suche Moonkes and Friers and al other whatsoeuer Religious that foresake their habite willingly departe out of their Cloister and returne vnto the order of secular personnes Of whiche sorte there be mo seene abroad in the world at these daies then euer were in our Forefathers time If I cal these Apostates I cal them by that common name by whiche al the worlde hath euer called them And therefore the offence is very smal if it be any at al.

licensed our most reuerende brother and felowe Bishoppe Menna to returne home after he had made his Purgation and was assoiled of the crime laid to his charge specially sith that after long enquirie made concerning those thinges whiche were reported of him we founde him culpable and blame worthy in none And he him selfe besides making satisfaction vppon his othe at the moste holy body of the blessed Apostle S. Peter hath declared him selfe to be free and cleere from al those thinges that were obiected to impaire his good name For as it was conuenient that we should seuerely haue pounished him according to the Canons if he had benne giltie in any thing So it was not meete that we should staie him or trouble him any longer seeing his owne innocencie did so helpe him Notwithstanding we haue geuen charge that he him selfe taking before two Priestes vnto him make his purgation when the accuser hath geuen ouer his action before you at your arbitrement Thus farre S. Gregorie But this proueth not your intente and purpose M. Iewel For I beseeke you Sir M. Iewels forgeries where is it said in al this Decree that the Pope committed a spiritual mater in a cause of Simonie to be heard and ended by a woman Where is it said that Brunichildis being a woman by vertue of the Popes commission summoned a Bishop to appeare and solemnely to make his purgation before her In the texte it is not nor in the glose that you so solemnely allege Or if it were had your lawier forgotte to tel you or were you so simple that you could not conceiue that whiche is commonly said Maledicta est Glosa quae corrumpit textum it is a cursed glose that corrupteth the texte But seeing you builde so muche vpon the Glose let vs see what the Glose saith Iewel 638. In your Glose vpon the same place it is noted thus Fuit tamen hoc nimium papaliter dispensatum The Pope vvas to Popelike in this dispensation Harding To let passe your scoffing and ministerlike interpretation let vs come to the matter M. Ievvel corrupteth his Glose by nipping avvay the ende of the sentence alleged What dispensation is it that the Glose speaketh of Why suffred you not the authour of the Glose to tel forth his whole tale Ye alwaies make your aduantage among the vnlearned of falsifying and corrupting your testimonies It followeth there Quòd Episcopus expurgatus coram Papa cogitur adhuc coram muliercula se purgare that a Bishoppe hauing made his purgation before the Pope is forced to purge him selfe before a woman And this is the dispensation that the Glose misliketh as to popelike according to your interpretation But if either the Gloser had considered the reason that moued the Pope or you that followe the Glose would haue marked the litle cause that standeth by the Glose in the margent in the last printe of Paris where it is said hoc totum ideo fuit vt fama eius clarior appareret al this was done by the wisedom of S. Gregorie to the ende his good name might appeare more cleare neither he would so rashly haue controlled S. Gregories order in that behalfe nor you so fondly alleged it And of a worde spoken in ieast as the Canonistes sometimes speake you take a weake holde as of a matter spoken in great soothe Notwithstanding you wil saie the wordes of the Decree are plaine tuo cōmisimus arbitrio We haue geuen a commission to your arbitriment that he purge him selfe before you If you make this obiection we answer that if the wordes were exactely sifted by the true and grammatical construction you would hardly maineteine this interpretation But I wil not contende about wordes Let it be as you would haue it Let Brunichildis haue a commission from the Pope to see that Bishop Menna made his purgation before her Your purpose and saying is nothing proued by it For first you saie The Pope committed a spiritual mater in a cause of Simonie to be heard and ended by a woman And this is a vaine tale and vntrue fansie of yours not hable to be gathered by any worde of that decree For the cause of Simonie whereof Menna was accused was heard and ended by the Pope and he not founde faultie in it was absolued and sent home And a cause once heard and determined by the Pope is not wonte to be committed afterward to the hearing and determination of a woman After this as though this lie had not ben lowde ynough you tel vs that Brunichildis being a woman by vertue of the Popes commission summoned a Bishop to appeare and solemnely to make his purgation before her and for your credite you referre vs in the margent to Gratian. 2. q. 5. Mennam It is 2. q. 4. But that Brunichildis did either summon a Bisshop to witte Menna to appeare or required him to make his purgation before her it is not to be found there nor any where elles that M. Iewel hath alleged or can allege as I doubte not For Brunichildis Queene of Fraunce being so holy so vertuous so religious a Lady as S. Gregorie reporteth she was it is to be presupposed that she would not disquiet a good and an innocent man nor put him to farther trouble who when his cause was heard and ended by the Pope was founde in nullo culpabilis blame worthy in nothing that was laid to his charge by the euident testimonie of S. Gregorie declared in his epistle sent of purpose to Queene Brunichildis Wherefore M.

Iewel at Tyrus and they were written vnto them vppon the complainte of S. Athanasius that worthy Patriarke of Alexandria made both against the iniuries and violences that Flauianus Dionysius the Emperours Lieutenant attempted against him and also against the sclaunders that his enemies the Arians had wrongfully laied to his charge And these sclaunders were not of Faithe maters but that Athanasius had murdered one Arsenius Ruffin in Histor Eccles li. 10. cap. 17. Socrates Li. 1. c. 29. and had committed a foule rape with a woman and that with an Arme cut of from Arsenius bodie he practized Witche crafte for the whiche crimes these Arians sought Athanasius death Wherefore no marueile if that good Emperour being
