§. 39. Henry, King of Germany, the Glory (saith Baronius and Binius) of Christian Religion, dyed at this time; who, after many other Nations,1 Converted also the King of Denmark to the Christian Faith: and left his Son Otho, the Heir of his Piety and Valour. Yet are not other Papists ashamed to say, That all these Nations were Converted by the Pope; who was the great Scandal, that hindered the Conversion of the World.
