Fr. Verone wrote an Apology for a Traytor, one of the most desperate Villains in the World. That infamous Book of Boucher (a French Jesuit) De justa Hen. 3. abdications is well known. Bellarmine was a principal Actor in the French League. Pope Sixtus the Fifth applauded the murder of Hen. 3. The General Council of Constance supposes it to be lawful in some cases to put a Prince to death. See more of this Subject in Verone, Rossaeus, Mariana, &c.

Besides the third & fourth General Councils of Lat. see the General Council of Lyons in the Decree for the recovery of the Holy Land.

Paris, p 666, 667, 668. The Council of Trent (though it was then no time to speak plain) passed such a Decree ( Sess. 25.) as was sufficient to keep up the claim to this power.
