say that this was properly an Innovation lest there by I should confesse that Luther and many others which liue in banishment in Heaven farre from vs might haue a title to this place as such Innouators But we cannot doubt but that this lunatique Queene will be more inclinable to our Innouations for our Clauius hath beene long familiarly conu●sant with her what she hath done from the beginning what she wil do hereafter how she behaues herselfe towardes her neighbour kingdoms the rest of the starrs all the planetary firmamentary worlds with whom she is in league amity and with whom at difference he is perfectly instructed so he haue his Ephemerides about him But Claui● is too great a personage to be best owed vpon this Lunatique Queene either as her Counsellour or which were more to our profit as her Cōfessor So great a man must not bee cast away vpon so small a matter Nor haue we any other besides whom vpon any occasion we may send to the Sunne or to the other worlds beyond the world Therefore wee must reserue Clauius for greater vses Our Herbestus or Busaeus or Voellus and these bee all which haue giuen any proofe of their knowledge in Mathematiques although they bee but tastlesse and childish may serue to obserue her asspects and motions and to make Catechisones fit for this Lunatique Church for though Garnet had Clauius for his Maister yet he profited little in the Arts but being filled with Bellarmines Dictates who was also his Maister his minde was all vpon Politiques When wee are established there this will adde much to our dignity that in our letters which wee send downe to the earth except perchaunce the whole Romane Church come vp to vs into the Moone we may write of what miracles wee list which we offered to doo out of the Indies and with good successe till one of our Order in a simplicity and ingenuity fitter for a Christian then a Iesuite acknowledged and lamented that there were no miracles done there Truly it had bin better for vs to haue spit all those fiue Brothers Acostas out of our Order then that any one of them should haue vomited this reproach against vs. It is of such men as these in our Order that our Gretzer saies There is No body without his Excrements because though they speake truth yet they speake it too rawly But as for this contemplation and the establishing of that gouernement though it be a pleasant consideration we may neither pamper our selues lōger with it now nor detaine you lōger therein Let your Greatnesse write let the Pope execute your counsell let the Moone approach whē you two think fit In the meane time let me vse this Chamber as a resting place For though Pope Gregory were strucken by the Angell with a perpetuall paine in his stomach and feet because hee compelled God by his praiers to deliuer Traian out of Heil and transferre him to Heauen and therefore God by the mouth of 〈◊〉 tooke an assurance for all his S●cessours that they should neuer dare to request the like againe yet when the Pope shall call mee backe from hence hee can be in no danger both because in this contract God cannot bee presumed to haue thought of me since I neuer thought of him and so the contract therein void and because the Condition is not broken if I bee not remoued into Heauen but transferred from an Earthly Hell to a Lunatique Hell More then this he could not be heard to speake For that noise of which I spoke before increased exceedingly and whē Lucifer asked the cause it was told him that there was a soule newly arriued in Hell which said that the Pope was at last entreated to make Ignatius a Saint and that hee hastened his Canonization as thinking it an vniust'thing that when all artificers and prophane Butchers had particular Saints to inuocate only these spirituall Butchers and King-killers should haue none for when the Iesuite Cotton in those questions which by vertue of his inuisible priuiledge he had prouided for a possest person amongst others dangerous both to England and France had inserted this question What shall I do for Ignatius his Canonizing and found out at last that Philip King of Spaine and Henry King of Fraunce contended by their Ambassadors at Rome which of them should haue the honour of obtaining his Canonizing for both pretending to be King of Nauarre both pretended that this right and honour belonged to him and so both deluded the Iesuits For D'Alcala a Franciscan and P●nafort a Iacobite were by Philips meanes canonized and the Iesuite left out At last hee despaired of hauing any assistance from these Princes nor did he thinke it conuenient that a Iesuite should be so much beholden to a King since Baronius was already come to that heighth and constancy that being accused of some wronges done to his King hee did not vouchsafe to write in his owne excuse to the King till the Conclaue which was then held was fully ended least as himselfe giues the reason if hee had then beene chosen Pope it should bee thought hee had beene beholden to the King therein For these reasons therefore they labour the Pope themselues They confesse that if they might choose they had rather hee should restore them into all which they had lost in Fraunce and Venice then that Ignatius should be sent vp into Heauen and that the Pope was rather bound to do so by the Order which God himselfe seemes to haue obserued in the Creation where he first furnished the Earth and then the Heauens and confi●med himse●fe to be the Israelites God by this Argument that he had giuen them the land of Canaan and other temporall blessings But since this exceeded the Popes omnipotence in Earth it was fit he should try what he could do in Heauen Now the Pope would faine haue satisfied them with the title of 〈◊〉 which formerly vpon the intreaty of the Princés of that Family he had affoorded to Aloisius Gonzaga of that Order He would also haue giuen this title of Saint rather to Xauerius who had the reputation of hauing done Miracles Indeed he would haue done any thing so hee might haue slipped ouer Ignatius But at last hee is ouercome and so against the will of Heauen and of the Pope Lucifer himselfe being not very forward in it Ignatius must bee thrust in amongst the Saints All this discourse I beeing growne cunninger then that Doctor Gabriell Nele of whom Bartolus speaketh that by the onely motion of his lippes without any vtterance vnderstood all men perceiued and read in euery mans countenance there These thinges as soone as Lucifer apprehended them gaue an end to the contention for now hee thought he might no longer doubt nor dispute of Ignatius his admission who besides his former pretences had now gotten a new right and title to the place by his Canonization and he feared
