Gap elements of known extent have been transformed into placeholder characters or elements to simplify the filling in of gaps by user contributors. EEBO-TCP is a partnership between the Universities of Michigan and Oxford and the publisher ProQuest to create accurately transcribed and encoded texts based on the image sets published by ProQuest via their Early English Books Online (EEBO) database (http://eebo.chadwyck.com). The general aim of EEBO-TCP is to encode one copy (usually the first edition) of every monographic English-language title published between 1473 and 1700 available in EEBO. EEBO-TCP aimed to produce large quantities of textual data within the usual project restraints of time and funding, and therefore chose to create diplomatic transcriptions (as opposed to critical editions) with light-touch, mainly structural encoding based on the Text Encoding Initiative (http://www.tei-c.org). The EEBO-TCP project was divided into two phases. The 25,363 texts created during Phase 1 of the project have been released into the public domain as of 1 January 2015. Anyone can now take and use these texts for their own purposes, but we respectfully request that due credit and attribution is given to their original source. Users should be aware of the process of creating the TCP texts, and therefore of any assumptions that can be made about the data. Text selection was based on the New Cambridge Bibliography of English Literature (NCBEL). If an author (or for an anonymous work, the title) appears in NCBEL, then their works are eligible for inclusion. Selection was intended to range over a wide variety of subject areas, to reflect the true nature of the print record of the period. In general, first editions of a works in English were prioritized, although there are a number of works in other languages, notably Latin and Welsh, included and sometimes a second or later edition of a work was chosen if there was a compelling reason to do so. Image sets were sent to external keying companies for transcription and basic encoding. Quality assurance was then carried out by editorial teams in Oxford and Michigan. 5% (or 5 pages, whichever is the greater) of each text was proofread for accuracy and those which did not meet QA standards were returned to the keyers to be redone. After proofreading, the encoding was enhanced and/or corrected and characters marked as illegible were corrected where possible up to a limit of 100 instances per text. Any remaining illegibles were encoded as s. Understanding these processes should make clear that, while the overall quality of TCP data is very good, some errors will remain and some readable characters will be marked as illegible. Users should bear in mind that in all likelihood such instances will never have been looked at by a TCP editor. The texts were encoded and linked to page images in accordance with level 4 of the TEI in Libraries guidelines. Copies of the texts have been issued variously as SGML (TCP schema; ASCII text with mnemonic sdata character entities); displayable XML (TCP schema; characters represented either as UTF-8 Unicode or text strings within braces); or lossless XML (TEI P5, characters represented either as UTF-8 Unicode or TEI g elements).

Articles of the Parlaments Demands to the Iesuites , with their Answers . THe twenty fourth of March 1626. the Iesuites being present in the great Chamber , the Parlament asked them , Doe you approve the wicked Booke of Santarellus ? P. Coton , Provinciall of the province of Paris , accompanied with three others , answered : Messieurs , it is so faulty , that we are ready to write against it , and to disprove all that he saith , and in effect there are come to our Houses ten Copies of them , all which we have suppressed . The Parlament , Suppressed , Is it your duty to deale so ? The Iesuites . We thought , that we could not doe otherwise then so . The Parlament . Why brought you not them to Monsieur the Chancellour , or to Monsieur , the First President ? The Iesuites . Messieurs , we are obliged , and bound to many other obediences , then are other Religious . The Parlament . Doe not you know very well , that this wicked Doctrine is approved by your Generall at Rome ? The Iesuites . Yea Messieurs , but we that are heere can not be so imprudent , but we disprove it with all our might . The Parlament . Well then , answere to these two things , Do you beleeve , that the King is all Powerfull within his Estates , and do you thinke , that any forraigne Power can , or ought enter in , or any then in the Person of the King can disturbe the peace of the Gallican Church ? The Iesuites . No , Messieurs , we beleeve him all Powerfull , as for Temporall . The Parlament . As for Temporall , speake plainly , and tell us , if you beleeve , that the Pope can Excommunicate the King , free his Subjects from their Oath of Allegiance , and expose his Kingdome to spoile ? The Iesuites . O Messieurs , to Excommunicate the King , he that is the Eldest sonne of the Church will be carefull to doe nothing , which may oblige the Pope to that . The Parlament . But your Generall , who hath approved that booke , doth hold for infallible as above . Are you of a different beliefe ? The Iesuites . Messieurs , Hee who is at Rome , could doe no otherwise , then to approve that , which the Court of Rome approveth . The Parlament . Is it your beleefe ? The Iesuites . It is quite contrary . The Parlament . And if you were at Rome , what would you doe ? The Iesuites . We would doe , as they doe there . The Parlament . Well then , answere to that , which we have demanded of you ? The Iesuites . Messieurs , we humbly beseech you , to give us leave to conferre together . The Parlament . Goe into that Chamber . They being there halfe an houre returned backe againe to the Parlament . The Iesuites . Messieurs , we will bee of the same opinion with the Sorbon , and will subscribe to the same things with the Messieurs of the Clergie . The Parlament . Make your Declaration there beneath . The Iesuites . Messieurs , wee most humbly entreate you , to give us some dayes to conferre among our selves . The Parlament . Goe your wayes , the Court giveth you three dayes .

A Copie of the censure of the Sacred Theologicall Facultie of Paris , of a booke intituled Antonii Santarelli , &c. IF any one perchance make doubt , that the ends of the world are come upon us , as the Apostle speaketh , let him but consider these latter times , and compare them with the former , and hee will then acknowledge , that the enemy of mankinde hath left nothing unattempted , which might serve not only to hurt , but also to cleane overthrow both the Ecclesiasticall , and also the Civill policie . There have beene wicked men , who presuming to blaspheme against Heaven , have imployed their pens , and swords against the Church , the Spouse of CHRIST IESUS . But some witlesse men perceiving , that it is not without reason , that the Secular power be armed with the sword , have assaulted the Civill Policie by an other way ; and have attempted to extirpate , and annihilate hereby execrable bookes , putting in execution by such ambuscado's more covertly their pernicious designes . The marke which S. Iude propoundeth to us to know these men by ; is , that they despise Dominion , and blaspheme Majesty . And would to God , that they had rested content only with despisall , and reviling speeches ; but so great is their fault , that contrariwise these damnable Writers , under a pretence of establishing in the Church , a certaine temporall power , doe teach , and affirme ; that it is in the power of those , who have in their hands the government of Ecclesiasticall affaires , to depose Kings from their Thrones , and the same for very small and ridiculous causes , and to put in their places other Supreme Magistrates either Annuall , or Iournall ; as they shall thinke good . For this cause the Theologicall Facultie of Paris perceiving , that they intend to overthrow by this meanes all Civill Policies , especially this of the French Monarchie , which is governed by our most Christian , most Clement , and most Iust KING , Lewis the XIII . To follow the steps of Her Predecessour , in testifying the affection , which Shee beareth to His Majesty , and the whole Realme , and to satisfie also the generall desire of all good men , hath chosen out among other bookes one newly come forth , intituled , Antonii Santarelli Iesuitae de Haeresi , Schismate , Apostatia , &c. And in the Generall Congregation held extraordinarily the sixeteenth day of March last past Shee committed to certaine Doctours , whom Shee particularly named , to read , and examine the same . But for as much as it treateth of many things , which doe no way appertaine to that , which principally is now questioned , Shee thought good , that they should examine only two Chapters , to wit , the thirtieth and thirtie one of the Treatise de Haeresi . Therefore the first day of April , 1626 after Masse of the HOLY GHOST the Assembly being kept after the accustomed manner in the Hall of the Sorbon Colledge , hath read the relation of the Doctours appointed by the Facultie , who have declared , that in those two Chapters are contained these propositions following : That the Pope can punish Kings , and Princes with temporall punishments , depose , and deprive them of their Kingdomes for the crime of Heresie , and free their Subjects from their obedience , and that this hath ever been the custome in the Church . And not only for Heresie , but also for other causes ; to wit , for their sinnes . If also it be expedient : If Princes be negligent : If they bee unable , and unprofitable . Moreover , that the Pope hath power ouer spirituall things , and also over all temporall . And that by the Law of God there is in him both spirituall , and temporall power . That we must beleeve , that to the Church , and her Supreme Pastour power is given to punish with temporall punishments , Princes who offend against divine , and humane lawes , especially if the crime be Heresie . They said also , that the same Santarellus affirmed in that booke . That the Apostles were subject to Secular Princes de facto , but not de iure . And also , that as soone as the Pontificall Dignitie was ordained , all Princes began to bee subject to it . To be short , they related , that he expoundeth those words of CHRIST , Whatsoever thou shalt binde upon earth , &c. Not only of spirituall , but also of temporall power . And that he corrupteth the text of Saint Paul in cutting of the negation [ Not ] and imposeth upon Authours things , which they never thought of . And they concluded , that as well these things , as many others , which they related , doe worthily deserve the Correction , and censure of the Facultie . Wherefore the matter being by Monsieur the Deane brought into deliberation , after the opinions of all the Doctours were heard , and their voices collected , the Facultie hath disproved , and condemned the doctrine contained in these propositions , and the conclusions of the said heads , as new , false , erroneous , contrarie to the word of God ; making the Pontificall dignitie to be odious ; opening the way to Schisme ; which dependeth only upon God , hindering the conversion of Infidell , and Hereticall Princes , disturbing the publike peace , and overthrowing Kingdomes , States , and Common-wealths , and in briefe , with drawing Subjects from the obedience , which they owe to their Soveraignes , and inducing them to Factions , Rebellions , and Seditions , and to attempt against the lives of their Princes . Made in the Sorbon , the day , and yeare above named , and reviewed the fourth of April , 1626. By the commandement of the Messieurs , the Deane , and Doctours of the sacred Theologicall Facultie of Paris . Ph. BOVVOT .
