2. And for Fathers, do I need to tell you how many condemned Marcellinus, Liberius, Honorius and others? How oft Hilary Pictav. (in fragmentis in recit. Epist. Liberii) doth cry out Anathema tibi Liberi, prevaricator: presuming to curse and excommunicate your Pope. Need I tell you what Tertullian saith against Zephernius: Yea what Alphonsus à Castro and divers of your own say against Liberius, Honorius, Anastasius, Celestine; and tell us that many Popes have been Heretics? At least give us leave to believe Pope Adrian the sixth himself. Read Dom. Bannes in 2m 2a q. 1. art. 10. Where he ⟨p. 249⟩proves at large against Pighius, that a Pope may be an Heretic, and laughs at Pighius that now after two hundred years would prove them false witnesses, which write that Pope Honorius was condemned for an Heretic by three Popes, viz. Agatho, Leo the second, and Adrian the second.

3. But perhaps you'll say, that though your Popes have been condemned by Councils, yet so have not your maintained doctrines. Answ. Yes, that they have too. Did not the Councils at Constantinople condemn the Doctrine of the second Nicene Council for Image-worship, and the Council at Frankford do the like? And those two at Constantinople were as much General as your Council of Trent was, and much more.
