leaving to his son his patrimony, greatly engaged and encumbered, & the Italians their Roman common wealth, wholly confused disordered and spoiled, to the end he might be an example, to all ages to declare how that things evil gotten are consumed & spent miserably & wickedly, •ontanus writeth that thy• Pope, had a daughter whom his son did use and so did the Pope him self, her name was Lucresse, ⟨image 6⟩Sanazarius, the Italian Poet, in his Epigrams and 2. book speaking of this Pope Alexander & noting his incest, saith thus. O Lucresse, will Alexander yet still covet thee? O horrible case, he is thy father. In the work entitled l'Estat do l'Eglise, it is written of this Pope Alexander, that not only he did use his daughter Lucresse, but his son did the like, whereupon she is called his wife, his daughter, and daughter in law. &c. Urspergensis noteth of Bregory the. 7. otherwise named Hildebrand, that the common wealth of Rome, and the Church was in great danger under him, by means of errors and new Schisms, which were never heard of before, & that he did usurp the Papal seat by tyranny, & not be lawful election. The Council holden at worms, in the year. 1080. saith of Gregory the. 7. that it is certain that he was not chosen of God, but that he did shamefully thrust him self in by deceit and money, and did turn up side down the order of the Church, and troubled the state of the Christian Empire, and framed the destruction of both the body & soul of the Catholic king, and did defend the perjured king, & did sow discord among such as did accord, and strife among the quiet, offences among the brethren, divorce among the married, and stirred up and changed all things that might tend to quietness among such as were of honest life. we therefore being gathered together by God against the said Hildebrand, who preached nothing but sacrileges & fires, main tayned the perjured and murderers, and brought the univer fall and Apostolic faith of the body and blood of the Lord into doubt, being an observer of divinations and dreams, & an open Necromancer, having a familiar spirit, and leaving in this sort the true faith, we judge that he ought by lawful authority to be deposed, driven from his seat, and perpetually condemned, if he leave not his seat when he shall understand these things.
