Eusebius. If those two arguments do seem unto thee weak and feeble, I will allege unto thee a stronger. When S. Paul did write unto 1the Philippians, that unto Jesus Christ is given a name above all names, that in the name of Jesus, should every knee bow, both of things in heaven & things in earth, & things under the earth. What understandeth he by those which under the earth do bow their knees unto Jesus Christ? That cannot be understanded of the devils. For they have not accustomed to honour God, nor the damned also. For their office is rather to blaspheme him. It must needs be then that they be in Purgatory which do bow the knee unto Jesus Christ, which do honour him, or otherwise the words of S. Paul should not be true.
