Platina tells us also of a bloody War and Sedition in Rome, upon the Pope's denying a Boy of ten years old, to succeed his Father as Prefect of the City; the Pope being forced to remove: That the Emperor came with an Army again to Rome, where a Bishop crowned him again, the Pope being in Apulia, who after returned and dyed.
§ 135. Now cometh the 24th Schism, or two Popes at once; Job. Cajetan Cardinal is chosen at Rome, by the CLERGY, SENATE, and PEOPLE of Rome, Bin. p. 1315. The Emperor sends to demand the confirmation of Pope Paschal's Covenants: He denieth, and as at his choice a great Citizen, Cincius Frangipanis, offended at the choice, threw him down, trod on him, and imprisoned him, till the People rose and forced Frangipanis to restore him safe; so the Emperor now set up another Pope, Gregory VIII. And Cajetan, called Gelasius the 2d, got some Italian Princes to help him, and when the Emperor was gone he came to Rome, and scuffling awhile, was fain to go to France, and dyed after a year and five days, Gregory reigning three years, and some being for one, and some for the other.
