to breake it downe and to bring it vnto them in the Consistorie which they quickly dispatched and did accordingly When the Pope saw it he said strike it batter it breake it in péeces like a potters vessell and cast it into Tyber togither with the Porphirie stone which was immediatly done according to his gracious will and commandement This being done the Pope said to the Cardinals it followeth now that we come vnto the third and last point but the time is past and therefore we will omit it till the afternoone I commaund you therefore vpon your fealtie and obedience to Peters chaire to our mother church and to the catholike and Apostolike faith that you faile not to appeare héere againe in the afternoone by two of the clocke that we may finish and absolue the third point as we haue done the two former Thus the Pope departed with a great and pompous traine towards his Pallace the Cardinals followed him and the most part of them dined with him but Cardinall Allen went home to his owne lodging hauing some attendant vpon him to watch sée to him After they had well fed and filled their bodies with manie daintie cates and dishes the Pope and all the Cardinals came againe into the Consistorie and tooke their places as they had done before when they were sate the Pope thus Orator-like debated with them In the forenoone my louely Cardinals we discussed and contriued fully and effectually two points which I proposed vnto you The third point cōcerning the English Catholikes Now it resteth that we procéede likewise to the third and last which is whether the English Catholikes are to be maintained and farther retained or else without longer delay to be expelled and banished I say and say againe and maugre the stoutest champion that liueth I will defend that they are iustly to be banished and I will produce for it such euident demonstrations and alledge such apparant reasons that you likewise shall both say it and sweare it what thinke you of it couragious Cardinals Néeds must we said they say and sweare as your holinesse doth especially since you are led thereto with many weightie and great reasons I denie it said Cardinall Allen if they be exiled they shall not iustly be exiled I will neuer agrée to it Dum spiritus hos regit artus while I liue Probo probo I will proue it quoth the Pope yea I will proue it so euidently and shew it so expresly that thou shalt not denie it and therefore marke what I tell thée Didst not thou perswade me in my last procession to take my iourney straight forth and to passe by the marble image of Dame Ioane I denie it not said the Cardinall Note that good Cardinals quoth the Pope you know what followed and what a perilous agonie I was driuen into thereby doth that deserue nought I pray Nay farther hast not thou detained monny that I allowed vnto thy countrimen It is false said the Cardinall Be not so obstinate quoth the Pope thine owne countrimen haue spoken and affirmed it I doubt it said the Cardinall Thou shalt finde it true thou runnagate quoth the Pope A proper kind of disputation Dost thou reproue me of a lie O thou noisome baggage Doost thou snufe and scorne my power and authoritie and disdaine my words that be of force to throw thée downe to the bottomlesse pit of hell Haue I deserued this at thine hands thou banished brat well well thou shalt repent it and that bitterly for thou thou curst caterpiller and thy cancred countrimen haue brought more charges to me then any other nation haue caused more troubles and hurleburlies to me then any other nation and haue deceiued and cosoned me more then any other Nation whatsoeuer Trouble not your sanctitie ouermuch said the Cardinall you cannot proue this you haue spoken I will proue it thou scald begger quoth the Pope and I will rightly proue it and therefore heare me good faithfull Cardinals If there were no other thing that were of force lawfull and reasonable to make vs reiect and roote out the English fugitiues yet the strange and noisome accident of the woman Pope Ioane were sufficient both to accuse them of iniurie and infidelitie towards the holy citie of Rome and also to expell them our of our regions and dominions for euer Vntruth she was a Dutch woman for she was an English woman borne and shée it is and none but she that hath decayed and ruinated our high iurisdiction and brought such a pestilent downefall to our Apostolike regiment that I feare me with all our art cunning and policie it will not be amended Shall we fauour the stocke and genealogie of them that haue bene such crackes and discredites to our power and authoritie Shall we kéepe and maintaine them that haue brought great persecution horrible confusion and bloudie massacres to our trustie and faithfull seruants And shall not we eradicate and cut off those Iudases which cleaue to vs and to our faith onely for their owne gaine and refuge and neuer do such homage seruice and obedience to our worthinesse as is requisite and expedient for them O most worthy Cardinals looke from the beginning that euer our religion was professed in England and you shall sée what small zeale loue and affection it hath there receiued And first looke vpon their kings and rulers and you shall finde them to be the verie maules of the Romaine bishops Cambra the daughter of Belin that married the Almaine prince made long and sharpe warre against this sacred citie and was like to spoile and sacke it So did Brennus the brother of Belin and others more as we finde it recorded King William the Conquerour Matthias Parisiensis Anno. 1094. vpon displeasure
