call him so ever came to be canonized for a Saint Euist. Spondanus will tell you Deo utique gratissimam navare operam coronis dignam non solùm qui pro Fide Catholica illibata servanda à persecutoribus necantur sed etiam qui pro juribus bonisque Ecclesiae conservandis repetundis ablatis occiduntur Bath This indeed is at the bottom of all the Pope's Canonizations the Wealth and Interest of the Church for which they have framed and contrived their Religion that whole mass of Superstitions and Idolatries Whence I should think that Thomas a Beckket and Thomas Aquinas are Saints altogether upon the same score because they advanced the worldly Interest of the Church Hyl. That 's likely enough Bathynous But I pray you Euistor goe on Euist. The same Pope Innocent the third excommunicated also the Emperour Otho the fourth and deprived him of the Titles of the Empire And Pope Honorius the third excommunicated and deposed the Emperour Frederick the second as also did Gregory the ninth after him and that in most abominable Circumstances For the Emperour being gone into Palaestine upon the Pope's own errand yet he takes this opportunity of anathematizing of him and by his Preaching Friars of raising him enemies in Germany that taking the advantage of the Emperour's absence and those Combustions he might with better success send an Armie into Apulia and seize there on his Land Pope Innocent the fourth also excommunicated this Emperour and after his death gave away the Kingdome of Sicily from his Son to Richard Brother to Henry the third of England Boniface the eighth excommunicated King Philip the Fair of France and by a Decree of a Council deprived him of his Kingdome and gave it to the Emperour Albert. Philop. This is that Philip that answered that insolent Letter of the Pope with this couragious Preamble To Boniface calling himself Sovereign Pontif but little greeting or rather none at all Let thy most egregious Folly know that in Temporal things we are subject to no man Cuph. I believe the King spoke truth and declared but the Right of all the Secular Princes of Christendome as well as his own But did not that Vejovis of Rome shatter him all a-pieces with his Thunderbolts Euist. No such matter Cuphophron Resist the Devil and he will flee from you Philip the Fair held his own and made such friends in Italy that the Pope was surprised at Anagnia and disgracefully mounted on a poor Jade was brought Prisoner to Rome no man rescuing this terrible Thunderer either out of fear or love but Pride and Regret taking vengeance of him burst his swollen heart within a few daies and thus ingloriously he died his Successour Benedict the eleventh not onely absolving Philip but highly complementing him For the Popes use to fawn on those Princes whom they cannot bite without manifest danger of breaking their Fangs But to proceed The Emperour Ludovicus Bavarus was excommunicated by Pope Iohn the twenty third and deprived of his Empire which Sentence was also renew'd by his Successour Benedict the twelfth but so vehemently pursued by Clement the sixth that the Electours were at last prevail'd with to chuse a new Emperour Philop. That was Charles Son to Iohn King of Bohemia which was the occasion of great and bloudy Wars But what is most observable the Election of this Emperour was the very breaking of the back of the Empire Charles pawning the Tributes of the Empire to the Electours and swearing also that he would never disengage that Pawn Moreover he made that authentick Capitulation with them whereby without the crime of Rebellion or Disloyalty they were enabled to take up Arms against the Emperour and his Successours in defence of their own Rights This huge weakning of the Empire had the strong working Policy of the Popes at length brought about they ever phansying that the bringing down of the Power of the Emperour was an exaltation of their own But the wicked were here taken in their own Nets For the Power thus invested in the Princes of Germany proved at last mainly serviceable for the Reformation there and the Humiliation of the Pope it being not in the Emperour's power to succour him against that noble and Heroical Champion for the Truth Martin Luther But let me not interrupt you in your progress Euistor Euist. This is a very material Interpellation O Philopolis and such as I dare say Hylobares will thank you for who by this time surely is glutted with my so copious recitall of Instances Hyl. I do thank Philopolis for his so judicious Note on the Capitulation of Charles the fourth but desire you to hold on in your recitall till I say I am glutted Euist. That I will not promise However I will add some few Examples more seeing you have not yet said that you satisfied as that of Benedict the thirteenth who sent a Bull of Excommunication against Charles the sixth King of France But the bearers of the Bull were very coursly disgraced and sent back again to their Master with a flea in their ear Iulius the second laid about him like mad with both Swords and particularly against Lewis the twelfth of France whom the excommunicated and put his Kingdome to Interdict as Pope Innocent served Iohn King of England But he came off much better then this For the Emperour and the King of France having called a General Council at Lions which yet presently removed to Pisa Iulius was there condemn'd for an Incendiarie and deprived of his Papal Chair Philop. Was it not there that the King coined golden Crowns with this Motto Perdam nomen Babylonis Euist. It was so Philopolis and a well-boding Omen towards the Reformation For Truth was a-dawning afar off and at last rose to broad day But in Henry the eighth's time King of England it was but as yet a dim Twylight in comparison of after-years And yet that King could discern that the Pope's Excommunications were but a flash without a bolt and therefore contemned the Thunderings of both Clement the seventh and Paul the third How Pius Quintus excommunicated Queen Elizabeth and deprived her of her Kingdomes I intimated before And Gregory the thirteenth drove on the same designs against the Queen which his Predecessour had begun The memory of that Pope will for ever stink in the nostrills of all posterity for the abetting and applauding that devillish Contrivance against the poor innocent Protestants under the colour of celebrating the Nuptials of Henry King of Navarr and the Sister of Charles the ninth of France This Gregory sent Cardinal Vrsin as Legat into France to return thanks and bestow Blessings and spiritual Graces upon the King and the rest of his ungracious Complices for their successfull acting this worse-then Thyestean Tragedie Philop. You mean that horrible Massacre in France Euist. I do so which yet I think that train of Villany laid in the Gunpowder-treason-plot if it had taken effect would have far
