Baronius ad an. 879, n. 55. reciteth an Epistle of this Popes so greatly complying with Photius even against the [Filioquen] that Binnius would have us believe that Photius forged it. And [epistolam ipsam aeterna oblivion dignam nolui (saith he) hisce adjungi.]

§ 81. CCXC. An. 876. a Concilium Ticinense maketh Charles Emperor when the Pope that had crowned Ludovicus before calleth Charles, praescitum, praeelectum et praedestinatum hereto, with all honourable Elogies.
And here cometh in a great controversy between the Papists, and the Protestants;1 viz. Whether Kings succeed by inheritance or by the election and making of the Pope. The Pope thought the craft of putting in a big usurping word, was as good as a Law to prove their own power to make Kings and unmake them. Accordingly this Pope when he ⟨p. 291⟩durst stay from Rome in France no longer, lest he lost all, (being imprisoned for refusing the right Heir Charles) returneth, and speaketh some big words, and turneth forced consent into super-Kingly commands, and saith (Bin. p. 1010) eligimus merito et approbavimus] solemnitèr ad Romani Imperii sceptra proveximus) et Augustali nomine decoravimus, &c. And to disable the Kingly claim of inheritance he saith, [Neque enim sibi honorem praesumptuosè ass•mpsit, ut Imperator fieret, sed tanquam desideratus, et optatus, postulatus A NOBIS, t a Deo vocatus, et honorificatus ad defendendam religionem et Christintique servos tuendos, humiliter et OBEDIENTER accessit, &c. Nisi enim talem cognovissemus ejus intentionem nunquam animus noster fieret tam promptus ad ipsius promotionem, &c. So if the Pope had not liked him, the Emperor's hereditary right had never made him Emperor. And the flattering Bishops say to the Pope (Bin. p. 1010.) ut non vos prius eligeret, sed contra vos cum et eligeretis et diligeretis: Et nos O Coangelice Papa, vestigia vestra sectantes et salubria monita recipients, quem amatis amamus, quem eligistis eligimus, &c.
