Platina tells us, that Pope John was depofed only bythole thathad adhered to him, before the other parties came. He was kept Prifoner three years, none but Germane!, whom he utaderfloodnot,attending him : Gregory died of grief, that Carolus Malatefla had too haflily publithed his refignati- on, whichhe harped to frufirateby delay. Benedict refuting to refign, the Arragonians and Spaniards forfook him as obftinate. The Scot Huck fall to him: Platina faith Huff' and Hierome wereburnt forlaying that Churchmen fhould+imitate Califin poverty, when their wealth and luxurywas the common Scandal. There was great joy at the choice of Martin. g. but Romeand Italy were Hill inwars and confufion. § 19.
