The Emperor took a long journey into Italy to submit him self unto the Pope: 1and being at Canusium, as it is said before, in the depth of winter, and In the hard frost, he waited patiently three days together with bare head, and bare foot before the Popes gates, to win his favour. In the end Pope Hildebrand being sick, and finding him self in case not to live, sent unto the Emperor, and besought him Pardon for all his Injuries. After that, the Popes, that succeeded, nevertheless continued this quarrel still. And thus by the Popes enticement, The Son raised a power, and deposed his Father: The Bishops disrobed him of his weed of State: & pulled the Crown Imperial from his head. The Ancient Reverend Prince, having now continued in his Empire fifty whole years, bare all these things quietly, and said unto them, Videat Deus, & judicet: Let God see, and Judge your doings. At the last, being least naked, and out of all, he turned him self to the Bishop of Spira, and said unto him: Now I beseech you, for God's sake, give me a prebend in your Church. For I am able to read, 2and can do some good in the quiere. But he was kept still in close prison at Leodium, until he died. And being dead, he was kept five whole years together above ground, at the Popes Commandment, & might not be buried: Such courtesy found that worthy Emperor at the Popes hand, only for claiming of his right.
