Whether ye make brags hereof, or no, I leave it in question. Certainly for this,1 and other like causes, One of your fellows saithe, Papa potest, quicquid Deus ipse potest: The Pope can do, what so ever God him self can do. An other saith, Animae existentes in Purgatorio, sunt de Jurisdictione Papae: & Papa, si vellet, 2posset totum Purgatorium evacuare: The Souls being in Purgatory, are (in the Popes Peculiar, and) under the Popes Jurisdiction: and the Pope, if it might stand with his pleasure, were able (to make gaole delivery, and) to avoid all Purgatory. And to this purpose,3 The Pope him self Commandeth, and Chargeth the Angels of God, to fetch forth from thence, whom so ever, and how many so ever he will have delivered, as hereafter in a place more convenient it shall better appear. If these seem to be no brags, then let them hardly be called by some other name, that may seem to please you better.

And to this pourpose,3 The Pope him selfe Commaundeth, and Chargeth the Angels of God, to fetche foorthe from thence, whom so euer, and howe many so euer he wil haue deliuered, as hereafter in a place more conuenient it shal better appeare. If these séeme to be no bragges, then let them hardly be called by somme other name, that maie seeme to please you better.
