After his death, Pope Eugenius altering his mind & purpose, would transport the Council unto Bonony: & thereby hindered the success of the council of Basil: and first he held a contrary Council, at Ferraria, and afterward at Florence. Eugenius the Pope pretended that the Greeks, who ⟨p. 362⟩should come to the council, would not pass the Alps: & that he himself could not go so long a journey, & that the Germans in their own country,1 would be so untractable, that nothing could there be attempted for their reformation. Whereupon he cited the fathers of the council up to Bonony, upon great peril. They again cited the pope, that either he should come himself, or send his ambassadors, under great penalty.
