Reason VIII.

'Tis well knowh what power Hope and Fear have upon the Spirits of men; now the Bishops commonly being Temporal Princes Subjects, how can they be free from those humane respects?* 1.1 sarebbon più va∣lenti i respetti del timore delle speranze e degli altri affetti che nul Pontefice, si per la sua grandezza, si per la sua lontananza; and in effect, when Pope Pius IV was reproach∣ed, That he did not leave to the Bishops of the Council of Trent their liberty: He cleared himself thereof no otherwise but this fashion; That their Kings and other Princes left them less of it than he; so that their servitude was undoubted, and the business was no more but to chuse which Master they ought to serve.
