Hillarius. He hath changed plays into plays, and those which profited him nothing at all he hath changed them into others more profitable for him. But the other Popes which came afterwards, seeing and perceiving that that Jubilee was too long for them, and that they could not have so good a part for their pray, have abrogated and made shorter the time. And therefore Pope Clement the sixth hath remitted it from 50. years to 50. years. 1And after him, Pope Sextus the fourth, who hath deified and put among the saints. S. Bonaventure, hath again remitted it from xxv. years to xxv. years: and hath celebrated the first, in the year 1475. Afterwards, Alexander the sixth, who was pope in the year 1500. following the example of Sextus, hath yet better enlarged that Jubilee. For •e hath not only held & kept it at Rome, but hath so enlarged it throughout all Christendom, that there remaineth almost no city, village, nor parish, but that he hath made them partakers of it.
