There fell out sometime an Odious quarrel between the Thomists, 1and Scotists, whether the Blessed Virgin were conceived in sin, or no. The one side said, Yea: the other cried, Nay. There were Learned men of both sides: Parties grew: The Schools were inflamed: the world was troubled: No Conference, no Doctor, no Council was able to quiet the matter, and to make them friends. The Scotists alleged for them selves the Council of Basil: The Thomists cried out, the Council of Basil was disorderly summoned, and therefore unlawful. In the midst of this heat, Pope Sixtus took upon him, to be Judge between them, and to determine the bottom of y• Cause.
