§. 28. But that which added grievously to the Calamity was, that the same Bishops that under one Emperor cursed the Council, under the next cursed those that owned it not, and thus most scandalously anathematized themselves, even one party this year, and another the next. I say nothing but what Binius and Baronius and such others say.

§. 29. VIII. The next sad Anathematizing was about the Monothelites: They that said that Christ had but One Will and One Operation were cursed as Monothelite heretics, and they that said He had two were cursed by the Monothelites: And these were no narrow petty Sects, but Emperors and great General Councils were for them. Binius saith, that the Council of Constantinople called Quin sextum that made the Trull Canons, were Monothelites, and yet that they were the same Bishops that had constituted the fifth Council, so that those also were Monothelites; And in the reign of Philippicus he saith a Council of the Monothelites was so great that there were besides the rest Innumerable Bishops out of the East. And these and their adversaries kept on the cursing trade of Religion, one side cursing under one Emperor, and the contrary under the next.
