M. Harding. 15. Untruth. Whereas it is written in Summa Angelica, In Curia Romana, titulus De Simonia non habet locum, The self same Sum useth this distinction, saieinge, Verum est in ijs, quae sunt Simoniaca de Jure positivo solùm: sed non in ijs, quae sunt Simoniaca de lure Divino. Whereby he meaneth, that concerning Simony, which properly is so called, the Pope is no less subject thereto, then any other man. Thus have you shamefully belied Summa Angelica.
M. Hardinge. 15. Vntruthe. VVhereas it is written in Summa Angelica, In Curia Romana, titulus De Simonia non habet locum, The selfe same Summe vseth this distinction, saieinge, Verum est in ijs, quae sunt Simoniaca de Iure positiuo solùm: sed non in ijs, quae sunt Simoniaca de lure Diuino. VVhereby he meaneth, that concerninge Simonie, whiche properly is so called, the Pope is no lesse subiecte thereto, then any other man. Thus haue you shamefully belied Summa Angelica.
The Reply. Hereby it appeareth, that M. Harding understandeth not his own Summa. For by Simonia de Jure positivo, is meant the sale of Bishoprics, and Benefices, &c. which, as this Summa saith, the Pope may freely sell for money, without impeachment of any manner of Simony. For better proof whereof Theodoricus saithe, Papa non potest committere Simoniam. Sic tenent Juristae. Quia Simonia excusatur per Authoritatem Papae. De Schismate inter Urban. & Clemen. lib. 2. cap. 32. An other saithe: Papa non committit Simoniam recipiendo pecuni•m pro collation Beneficiorum […] shamefully we belie Summa •• gelica.
The Replie. Hereby it appeareth, that M. Hardinge vnderstādeth not his owne Summa. For by Simonia de Iure positiuo, is meante the sale of Bishoprikes, and Benefices, &c. whiche, as this Summa saithe, the Pope maie freely selle for monie, without empeachemente of any manner of Simonie. For beter proufe whereof Theodoricus saithe, Papa non potest committere Simoniam. Sic tenent Iuristae. Quia Simonia excusatur per Authoritatem Papae. De Schismate inter Vrban. & Clemen. lib. 2. cap. 32. An other saithe: Papa non committit Simoniam recipiendo pecunim pro collatione Beneficiorum shamefully wee belie Summa gelica.
