Detestabliis est in Regibus injustitia Regum enim est suum cuiqu tribuere Peccant Reges si tributa iniquae subditis imponant vel antiqua augeant sine reipublicae necessitate I am Sir Yours T. L. A Letter concerning historical passages in the Papacy and of the Question whether the Turk or Pope be the greater Antichrist Sir VVHether Pope Innocent the VIII had such a pension as 40 or 60000 Crowns from the Turk I know not though I do believe had the Turk offer'd it his holiness would scarce have refused it For both Innocent the VIII who died Anno 1491. and Alexander the VI. who succeeded him were prodigiously impious and beyond all measure covetous Innocent the VIII had no less than 26 Sons and Daughters yet no Wife for of him it was (a) See Cyprian Valera of the Lives of the Popes writ in Spanish and translated into English by John Golburne and Printed at London 1600. p. 130. said by the Poet. Octo recens pueros genuit totidemque puellas Hunc merito poterit dicere Roma patrem Spurcities gula avaritia atque ignavia deses Hoc octave jacent quo tegeris tumulo In his time Bajazet the Turkish Emperour had a Brother Zizimus or as some call him Geme who rebell'd against him and sent to Pope (b) Cyprian Valera Ibid. p. 131. out of Friar John de Pineda lib. 26. cap. 33. Innocent to secure that brother who was retir'd to Rhodes and was afterwards brought to the Pope Bajazet sent a present to the Pope to wit the Title of our blessed Saviours Cross in Hebrew Greek and Latine This the Turk sent to the Pope that he might detain his Brother Zizimus or Geme that so he might not be at liberty to make War against him Pope Innocent being dead the Turks Brother Geme was Prisoner to his Successor Alexander VI. to whom the Turk paid a pension of 40000 Duckats Annually (c) Cyprian Valera or De Valera Ibid p. 136. for keeping his Brother Prisoner But Charles the VIII King of France managing War against Pope Alexder who was not able to resist that King the Pope was constrain'd to conclude a peace and one condition was that he should set the Turks Brother at Liberty This exceedingly troubled the Pope who if he set the Turks Brother at Liberty lost his pension of 40000 Dackats At last the Turk gave the Pope Alexander 200000 Duckats to take away his Brother (c) Cyprian Valera Ibid. and he cites there Guicciardin and Jovius and accordingly the Pope caused him to be (d) Guicciardin in the 3. Book of his History had this story of Pope Alexanders abominable incest with Lucretia but it was left out both in Italian and Latin Editions but the words were published with other passages left out of his History Lond. 1595. and since at Amsterdam 1663. Poison'd and so he died This is that Pope Alexander who could and notwithstanding his Holiness and Infallibility did commit such abominable Adulteries and Incest with his own (d) Guicciardin in the 3. Book of his History had this story of Pope Alexanders abominable incest with Lucretia but it was left out both in Italian and Latin Editions but the words were published with other passages left out of his History Lond. 1595. and since at Amsterdam 1663. Daughter Lucretia as has not usually been heard of amongst Pagans which gave occasion to Johannes Pontanus to make this Epitaph for the said Lucretia Hoc jacet in tumulo Lucretia nomine sed re Thais Alexandri filia sponsa Narus But enough if not too much of this For even your best Popish Writers who are more willing to conceal than to publish their Popes impieties confess this Alexander the sixth to have been a Monstrous villain that he had the Turkish Emperours Brother Zizimus at Rome that he delivered him up to Charles the French King and that he died a little while after And Sabellicus (e) Vide Onuphrum Pa●●inium Papizium Massonum c. in Vita Alexandri 6. Ant. C●ecium Sabellicum Operum Tom. 2. Enneadis 10. lib. 9. p. 778. D. 781. B. says that Bajazet promis'd the Pope Magnam auri vim si fratrem veneno tolleret p. 778. And it is certain he died a little after and then he adds that it was believed that he was poison'd the Pope knowing it Fuerunt qui crederent eum Veneno sublatum fuisseque Alexandrum Pontificem ejus consilii non ignarum p. 782. Again you say It seems that the Hungarians had rather be under the Turk than under the Pope and Emperour so should I too if I might have my choice and were put to it If I had liberty and power to avoid it I would be under neither It being a great unhappiness to be under either For as the Proverb is neither Barrel is better nor good Herring But if my condition be so miserable that I must be under one of them then consonant to right Reason and Religion pars tutior est eligenda I will chuse that side in which I shall undergo less misery and mischief that is I will be under the Turk rather than the Pope For under the Turk I may as the Greek Church does injoy my Religion and if I do not rebel but pay Taxes I may injoy the rest of my Estate But under the Pope I shall not have so good Quarter and Conditions I must either turn Papist with evident danger of Eternal Damnation or I lose all For the Popish Apothegme their declared Judicial Sentence is peremptory short and severe Turn or Burn. If with reasons grounded on Nature or Scripture they cannot as I am sure they cannot convince me of the truth of their Roman-Catholick Religion then they have where they have power Fire and Faggot to consume me So that under the Pope If I keep my Religion then life and livelihood and whatever I have in this World is absolutely lost and if I impiously desert my Religion I shall have little reason to hope for any thing but Hell Purgatory will not do it in the World to come 1. The next Query you mention is whether the Turk or Pope be the worse Antichrist and you say that honest John Fox disputes the Case pro and con and leaves the determination of it till Elias come But I fear you are mistaken for John Fox did believe the Pope to be Antichrist and so did and do all the Reformed Churches particularly the Church of England as evidently appears by our Homilies which all our Divines do still Subscribe and though Dr. Hammond has a new and wild opinion that Simon Magus was Antichrist yet in that he contradicts the Doctrine of our Church which he had Subscrib'd and not only so but he contradicts express Scripture and the Sense of Christendom for 1600. Years He being the first who ever held that Apocryphal Opinion and may be he will be the last unless some out of meer kindness to his Person for
