In the which mean space of his return, he writeth to the Emperor, and to other nobles of the Empire repeating briefly to them the whole action and order of things there done, desiring of them, their lawful good will and favour, which as he hath always stand need of, so now he most earnestly craveth, especially in this, that his cause which is not his but the cause of the whole church universal, may be heard with indifferency and equity, and may be decided by the rule and authority of holy Scripture: signifying moreover, that when so ever they shall please to send for him, he shall be ready at their commandment, at any time or place, upon their promise of safety, to appear. &c.
