Regium concilium e• Anglica Nobilitate conflatum diremit: 1She hath removed the Noble men of England from the Kings Council. The Poets had a fond devise of their great God JUPITER, ⟨p. 54⟩that he held a golden Chain in his hand, and tied to the end of it both the Land and Sea, and coasts of the whole world, and so might toss and turn, and set them higher and lower at his pleasure. Pope Pius bestirreth himself, as though he were in Jupiters place, and might by his Bulls and curses set higher and lower, place and displace, appoint who shall, & again who shall not be in Princes Councils. Nothing may be done but by his sufferance. Such a practise he hath to make himself King of Kings, and the God of this world. For, when he may rule the Council, he may rule the King: and being able to rule the King, he may rule the people throughout the world. He sayeth Queen Elizabeths Council is not to my liking. She hath put those from the Council, which were of the Nobility of England.
