Section I:

Examination of opponents' adduced
facts-Six alleged instances where
Popes claimed the right to absolve
from oaths-Logic violated by deduc-
ing a general conclusion from par-
ticular premisses-Were the facts
true, they were the acts of individual
Popes and no evidence of doctrine-
That the Popes absolved from oaths
of allegiance would not prove that
they absolved from all oaths-Cases
of the Emperors of Germany, Henry
VIII and Elizabeth of England, and
Henry of Navarre-Monarchs can
forfeit their claim to the allegiance
of their subjects-Laity and clergy
of America violated their oaths of
allegiance to the King of England-
Bishops and peers of England vio-
lated their oaths to James II-Papal
dispensation of the same nature as
these acts-History of the creation
and title of Emperor of Germany-
Terms of contract between the Pope
and emperor-The former had power
to judge when the latter remained
entitled to receive, and when he
forfeited, the allegiance of his sub-

jects-This is a human, not a divine,
right-Character of Henry IV or III
described by his most partial his-
torians in dark colors-Disputes be-
tween him and his subjects-Imposes
unwarranted taxes, as afterwards
did the English Henry III, and com-
mits simony-Is not legally emperor
and is resisted by the Germans-
Principles of the Papacy and those
of the United States in unison-
Henry's incontinence-Plot to mur-
der his nobility-Is elected at Mentz
and obtains the Pope's absolution
and concurrence by professing
repentance Becomes worse — - Is
threatened with deposition-Affects
to depose the Pope-Is excommuni-
cated, does penance in public, and
is absolved-Violates his oaths, be-
haves still worse than before, and is
justly deposed by Gregory VIII by
virtue of his constitutional authority,
ii, 240-8. Section II: The German
case not a precedent for universal
practice-Protestants seldom attack
the real doctrines of the Church-
Cases of Wicliff and other heretics-
Case of Henry IV or V-Innocent
III and Otho IV-Conduct of Popes
in regard to these political compacts
have no connection with the Catholic
religion-Canon of the Lateran
Council-Two mistakes-A general
council only infallible in decisions
concerning faith and the principles
of morality-The third canon re-
spects neither-The council also a
political congress-Canon analyzed
-Distinction between its civil and
ecclesiastical enactments - Case of
Innocent IV declaring Frederick II
his vassal and deposing him in the
Council of Lyons-Frederick held
Naples and Sicily as fiefs of the Holy
See-His execrable conduct forfeited
the crown-The Pope justified in
deposing him-The whole case has
no bearing upon the United States-
Boniface VIII's proposition that
every one must submit to the Roman
Pontiff true in a spiritual sense-.
Conclusion that therefore the Pope
can dispense with oaths a non sequi-
tur-Pope Clement V's declaration
in the Council of Vienne that the
emperor was subject to him-
Clement VI deposes Louis IV-
All these cases have no connection

with Catholic faith, ii, 248-57. Sec-
tion III: The Pope's dispensation
from allegiance to Henry VIII of
England-The feudal system gave
him the right-Tenure of Ireland
rests on a papal bull-England made
a fief of the Holy See by John, as
previously by Henry II-England a
party to the agreement of the powers
at the Lateran Council-Henry VIII
accepted the title of Defender of the
Faith from the Pope-Reaction of
lay interference-Bishop Fisher
martyred-Political adherence of the
English Catholics to Henry VIII—
Case of Elizabeth-The Pope refuses
to recognize her title because she
was illegitimate-Spanish invasion
-Testimony of Mr. Hume, ii, 257-63.
Section IV: Case of Henry, King
of Navarre, deposed by the Pope,
not of universal application-Vari-
ous misapprehensions of papal utter-
ances, ii, 263-9. Section V: None
of the cases apply to the United
States-Declaration of six universi-
ties and the act of the Pope disclaim
the inherent right of deposition-
Calumnies on Catholics originated in
England-Political reasons for mit-
gating the persecution of Catholics
at the end of the eighteenth century
-Mr. Pitt's absurb question to the
Catholic Universities-Irish tes:
oath approved by Pius VI-Extract
from the Bishop of Waterford's pas
toral-Compatibility of the oath of
