So the general Council at Basil deposed Pope Eugenius 4. ⟨p. 24⟩as being [A rebel against the holy Canons, a notorious disturber and scandalizer of the peace and unity of the Church, a Simonist and a perjured wretch, incorrigible, a schismatic, and an obstinate Heretic.]

Pope John 13. alias 12. was in Council convicted of ravishing Maids, Wives, Widows at the Apostolic doors, and committing many murders: he drunk a health to the Devil, and at Dice called to Jupiter and Venus for help, and at last was slain in the act of Adultery. Saith Platina [he was from his youth a man contaminated with all dishonesty and filthiness; and if he had any time to spare from his lusts, he spent it in hunting, and not in praying.] And after he calls him [a most wicked man, or rather a Monster] and saith that [the life of this most wicked man being judged in a Council of Italian Bishops, for fear of them he fled and lived like a wild beast in the woods,] till at last he got the better again by the help of his friends at Rome; till an angry man that found him naught with his wife, got the better of him, and sent him to answer it in another world. And their own writers note that this was the first Pope that changed his name, whom his followers imitated. And do you think the Head of the Roman Church was then Holy?
