Church-history of the government of bishops and their councils abbreviated including the chief part…

§ 118. How the old Emperor was basely deprived by the three Bishops of Mentz, ¹Colen and Worms; how he charged their Oaths of Allegiance on them; how he denounced the Revenge of God against them; how he was kept in such poverty, that he desired for his relief to have been but an Assistant in the Monastery of Spire which he had built himself, and was by the ungrateful Bishop of Spire denied; how in his misery he confessed it was the justice of God for the sins of his youth (Lust) you may see in Sigon. de ⟨p. 375⟩Reg. Ital. An. 1106. Helmold. Hist. Sclav. c. 32. Sigebert An. 1106. Albert. Xrantz. Hist. Sax. li. 5. c. 20, 21, 22, 23, 24. compared. As also how his Body was digged up out of his Grave, and kept five years by his unnatural Son in an unconsecrated place, and after buried. Thus ended one that had fought (as Historians say) with honour, Sixty two Battles (more than Caesar had done) a Man (had he duly mastered his youthful lust) credibly described as of laudable endowments, and one that showed much zeal for the Clergy, though he was not willing to be absolutely their Subject.
