ARTICLE II. That Emperors and Kings have acknow∣ledged the Pope.

'TIs this Soveraign Puissance Ecclesiastick of Popes, superior to the Secular, that the Kings and Emperors of the Earth have acknowledged by kneeling down be∣fore them,* 1.1 l'Ecclesiastica è suprema in autho∣rità perche ad essa i Principi secolari s'inge∣nocchiano.

Monarchs do not only kneel before the Pope, but they kiss his Feet, in token they acknowledge his Soveraign Authority as Vicar of Jesus Christ,* 1.2 inducendo tutti Prin∣cipi à riconoscerli come vicarii di Christo, bas∣ciando i loro piedi.

They acknowledge him as the chief Magi∣strate over all men,* 1.3 Magistrato supremo u∣mano.

They adore him as most holy in that qua¦lity, and too as Mediator between Heaven and Earth,* 1.4 chi dev'essere adorato con soprano∣me di santissimo, e mezzano frà il cielo e la terra, and as Mediator between themselves, and Arbitrator of their Differences, to hin∣der the Insolencies of some of them, and the plottings of others, otherwise States would never endure his medling in their Matters,* 1.5 il principato non è durabile con l'inso∣lenza, rimosso l'ostacolo dell'autorita spirituale, e perciò molto minor numero di congiure e di ribellioni.

Therefore Kings and People adore the Pope's hands,* 1.6 adorato sua mano; they adore his Crown, corona Pontificale; and his Dia∣dem,* 1.7 si tratta di mantenir l'adorato diademate nel fronte al mio principe.

In fine, they regard him as their Lord, nostro Signore.* 1.8
