Pope Damasus showeth us, that a great number of Bishops of Rome were Priests Sons: As Pope Syluerius: Pope Deusdedit: Pope Adrianus. 2: Pope John. 15: Pope Felix. 3: Pope Hosius: Pope Agapetus: Pope Gelasius: ⟨p. 167⟩Pope Bonifacius:1 Pope John 10: Pope Theodorus. And concludeth thus, Complures etiam alij inueniuntur, qui de Sacerdotibus nati Apostolicae Sedi Praefuerunt: Many others beside there are found, that being Priests Sons ruled the Apostolic See of Rome.2 Pope Pius saith, A married man, having his wife alive may be chosen Pope. His words be these: Cur enim disputant Doctòres, an Electus in Papam uxori suae debitū solver teneatur, &c. For wherefore do the Canonists move this doubt, Whether a man being chosen Pope be bound to yield marriage duty to his wife, onlesse a married man may be chosen to that room?3 Polydorus Vergilius saith, that the restraint of Priests Marriage was first attempted in England about the year of Our Lord Nine hundred three score and ten: and that the same was afterward concluded in the West Church about the year of Our Lord a thousand and a hundred, and never before.
