to offend but also to ruine effectually all Policies as well Ciuill as Ecclesiasticall There haue bin found some vngodly persons which being so bold as to speake blasphemie against heauen haue employed their Pens and swords against the Church which is the Bride of Iesus Christ But some wicked men considering that the Secular powers are not without reason armed with the Sword haue by an other manner of way set vpon the policie and haue tryed to extirpe and annullate it by the meanes of execrable bookes executing their wicked designes more couertly by the meanes of such embuscados The marke which Saint Iudas proposeth vnto vs to know such persons is that they contemne the soueraigne powers and blaspheme against the Maiestie It were to bee wished that they rested themselues with their contemning andspeaking ill but it is so farre from it that to the contrary these damnable writers vnder the pretext to establish in the Church a certaine temporall power they teach and affirme that it is in the power of those which gouerne Ecclesiasticall matters to put Kings out of their Thrones yea euen for small and ridiculous matters and to substitute in their places either Soueraigne or annuall yea euen daily Magistrates as they shall thinke fit Therefore the Diuines of the Vniuersitieof Paris considering that they intend by such meanes to ruine the Ciuill Policies and especially the French Monarchie which is gouerned by our Most Christian most Gracious and most Iust King they to follow the steps of their predecessors haue to shew their affection which they beare to his Maiestie and all this Kingdome and to satisfie the generall desire of all good persons chosen amongst other a Booke which is newly come to light vnder the title of Antonij Sanctarelli Iesuitae de Haeresi Schismate Apostasia c. in the generall congregation which hath extraordinarily beene kept on the sixt day of the Moneth of March which is last past appointed some Doctors which they haue particularly named to reade and examine the same Booke But seeing that it treateth of many things which concerne not the matter which is now principally questioned and haue resolued that but two chapters of the same Booke should be examined namely the 30. and 31. of the treatie of Heresie So it is that on the first day of the moneth of Aprill in the yeare 1626. after the Masse of the Holy-Ghost the assembly being made according to custome in the Hall of the Colledge of the Sorbonne there was heard the report of the Doctors which were appointed by the Diuines and delared that in the two chapters which were shewn vnto them are contayned the following Propositions namely That the Pope may punish the Kings and Princes with temporall paines and that he hath power to Depose and bereaue them of their Kingdomes and States for crime of Heresie and to discharge their Subiects of their obeisance and that such hath alwayes bin the custome of the Church and that not onely for heresie but likewise for other causes viz. for their sinnes if it be fitting If the Princes be negligent If they be incapable and vnprofitable Moreouer that the Pope hath power both ouer spirituall and temporall powers and that hee hath such power by Gods law That man must belieue that there is giuen power to the Church and her Soueraigne Pastor to punish the Princes which offend against the diuine and humane lawes with temporall paines and that especially if their crime be heresie They haue likewise said that the Author of this Booke affirmeth That the Apostles although they were in effect subiect to the secular Princes were not by right their Subiects as likewise that as soone as the Maiestie of the Soueraigne Bishop hath beene established all Princes haue beene subiect vnto him To be briefe they haue reported that this man explicated these words of Iesus Christ All that whatsoeuer you shall binde vpon earth c. are not onely to be vnderstood of the spirituall power but also of the temporall and that he hath corrupted the Text of St. Powell in cutting off of a deniall and that he maketh many Authors to speake such things which they haue neuer imagined or conceiued And concluding thereupon that both these and other things deserued very well the correction and censure of this facultie of Diuinitie The Deane hauing thereupon taken the matter in deliberation and all the opinions of the Doctors being heard and their voyces gathered This facultie hath reproued and condemned the doctrine which is contained in these propositions and conclusions of the said chapters as being new false erronious and contrary to the word of God alleaging that it maketh odious the dignitie of the Soueraigne Bishop and opened the way to Schisme that it tendeth to the preiudice of the soueraigne authoritie of Princes which dependeth onely from God and that it hindereth the conuersion of vnfaithfull and hereticall Princes that it troubleth the publike peace and hindereth the welfare of Kingdomes States and Common-wealths And to be short that it draweth and distracteth the Subiects from the obeysance which they owe to their Soueraignes and prouoked them to factions rebellions and seditions and induceth them to attempt against the liues of their Princes Done in the Sorbonne on the day and yeare as aboue and viewed ouer againe on the fourth of Aprill anno 1626.
