Again, Henry Bullinger in his book,1 De origine erroris, following belike some other author, expresseth the order of the foresaid recantation after this sort, and sayeth, that in the time of Pope Leo. 9. Anno. 1051. there was a Roman Council holden at Uercellense, in the which Council Lanfranc being then present, the Book of Joh. Scotus was openly read, and there condemned. Also Berengarius was sent for,2 who seeing the prejudicial proceeding of that Council, refused himself to come, but sent two Clerks, which openly there defended his cause and quarrel, and were for the same committed unto prison. Such is the freedom of the Popes general Councils, with prisons and violence to defend their verities. Against the doings of this Council notwithstanding, the French men stood stiff, both at Angew, and Turon, joining and consenting with Berengarius.
