for the Pope.* 1.2 The spirituall swoorde you denie not, I trowe. Of the Temporall swoorde belonginge al∣so to the Pope,* 1.3 thus saithe S. Bernarde to Eugenius. He that denieth this swoorde to be thine, seemeth to me, not to consider sufficiently the woorde of our Lorde, saieinge thus (to Peter thy Predecessour) * 1.4 Put vp thy swoorde into the scaberde. The very same then is also thine to be drawen foorthe per∣haps at thy becke, though not with thy hande. Els if the same belonged in no wise vnto thee, where as the Apostles saide, Beholde there be twoo swoordes here: Our Lorde woulde not haue answeared, It is ynough, but, It is too muche. So bothe be the Churches, the spirituall swoorde, and the materiall. But this is to be exercised for the Churche, and that of the Churche. That by the hāde of the Prieste, this of the Souldier, but verily at the becke of the Prieste, and commaundement of the Emperoure. Thus. touchinge the Popes bothe swoordes, you are fully answered by S. Bernarde.
