Good
Newes
from
FRANCE
.
CONTAINING
CERTAINE
REASONS
,
Vpon
which
is
grounded
the
Decree
or
Sentence
from
the
Kings
Councell
against
the
Iesuites
demanding
the
abrogation
of
a
Decree
of
the
Parliament
at
Tholouse
.
By
which
they
were
commanded
,
that
they
should
not
take
vpon
them
the
name
,
title
,
or
qualitie
of
an
Vniversitie
;
and
that
they
should
not
giue
any
degree
in
any
facultie
,
nor
any
nomination
to
any
Benefices
.
THe
Vniversities
haue
alwayes
had
such
a
favour
of
our
KINGS
,
that
they
haue
beene
received
when
they
did
demand
Iustice
of
their
Maiesties
,
not
only
in
their
own
particular
causes
,
but
also
in
causes
which
did
concerne
the
publick
estate
of
the
Kingdome
.
The
Histories
and
publick
Acts
do
plainly
shew
it
,
and
also
it
may
manifestly
appeare
by
the
Records
of
the
Parliament
at
Paris
,
that
our
King
Charles
the
7.
when
he
would
restore
and
confirme
the
rights
and
fundamentall
lawes
of
his
Kingdome
.
And
having
to
this
end
assembled
many
great
Lords
to
this
Councell
,
there
were
heard
as
well
their
Atturney
Generall
,
as
also
the
Vniversitie
at
Paris
,
and
vpon
that
which
they
did
represent
were
made
many
good
Ordinances
,
to
which
his
Maiestie
did
sware
,
and
caused
all
his
Officers
and
Councell
to
sware
to
them
inviolably
.
It
is
manifest
to
all
the
world
,
that
our
King
is
not
inferior
to
his
Auncestors
in
doing
Iustice
to
his
Subiects
,
without
acceptation
of
persons
,
after
GODS
Ordinance
,
by
whose
grace
he
doth
raigne
,
with
resolution
to
conserue
his
royall
authoritie
,
with
courage
to
maintaine
his
State
in
all
the
Bodies
whereof
it
is
composed
against
all
Interprises
.
Therfore
haue
the
Vniversities
being
prest
by
an
extreame
necessity
for
to
defend
themselues
against
the
assault
,
yea
against
oppression
,
which
the
Iesuites
not
being
contented
yet
with
the
dissolutions
and
ruines
which
they
haue
brought
vpon
them
heretofore
,
doe
now
take
in
hand
to
bring
vpon
them
,
in
attributing
to
themselues
their
title
and
their
rights
(
their
title
in
making
so
many
Vniversities
as
they
haue
Colledges
of
their
Societie
,
their
rights
in
making
the
advancements
,
and
giving
the
degrees
to
the
Schollers
,
yea
to
them
which
the
Doctors
of
the
Vniversitie
hath
refused
,
as
if
they
were
their
superiors
.
)
The
same
Vniversitie
doe
hope
that
it
will
not
be
vnpleasing
to
the
King
,
that
the
Deputies
should
defend
them
.
And
in
defending
themselues
in
the
presence
of
his
Maiestie
,
and
of
the
Lords
of
his
Councell
,
they
doe
not
vphold
onely
the
Decree
given
to
their
profit
by
one
of
the
most
honorable
Parliaments
of
his
Kingdome
(
that
is
to
say
)
the
Parliament
at
Tholouse
,
of
which
the
Iesuites
dare
demand
the
Abrogation
,
and
so
abusing
the
favour
that
his
Maiestie
hath
done
to
them
in
taking
one
of
them
for
his
Confessor
.
A
most
singular
favour
,
which
till
this
present
they
haue
not
received
of
any
of
our
holy
Fathers
,
nor
of
the
Kings
of
Spaine
.
But
also
doe
shew
and
proue
by
authentick
Acts
,
yea
by
the
Iesuites
owne
writings
,
that
the
demand
which
they
doe
make
now
,
and
the
proiects
which
they
haue
to
attribute
to
every
one
of
their
Colledges
the
title
and
rights
of
an
Vniversitie
,
are
contrary
and
preiudiciall
to
the
Kings
authoritie
,
to
the
ordinary
Iustice
of
his
Maiestie
,
to
the
dignitie
and
power
of
the
Cardinals
,
Archbishops
,
and
Bishops
of
other
orders
and
professions
,
to
the
yong
Schollers
vnder
them
,
and
to
the
good
of
the
Townes
which
doe
receiue
them
,
to
the
perfection
of
Sciences
and
Antiquitie
,
&
to
the
commandements
of
the
Church
,
and
to
the
resolution
of
the
Clergie
of
France
in
the
assembly
at
Poissy
,
in
the
yeare
1561.
to
the
Letters
Patents
which
they
haue
obtained
of
our
Kings
,
Henry
the
second
,
Francis
the
second
,
Charles
the
ninth
,
Henry
the
third
,
and
to
those
Letters
which
they
haue
had
for
the
re-establishing
of
the
King
Henry
the
Great
,
of
happie
memory
,
and
of
our
King
which
doth
raigne
at
this
present
.
As
also
to
the
Decrees
of
the
allowance
and
registring
thereof
,
which
they
themselues
haue
pursued
in
the
Court
of
Parliament
of
this
Kingdome
.
1.
Against
the
Kings
authoritie
.
BEcause
they
will
by
vertue
of
a
Bull
which
they
say
that
they
haue
obtained
from
our
holy
Gregory
the
13.
take
vpon
them
power
for
to
chuse
and
create
Iudges
,
Conservators
for
all
kinde
of
causes
as
well
Civill
as
Criminall
,
and
mixt
:
yea
,
&
those
in
which
they
themselues
should
be
demanders
for
their
rights
,
lands
,
and
houses
,
fruits
,
rents
,
and
revenues
,
and
for
all
other
things
moueable
and
vnmouable
,
spirituall
and
temporall
:
and
that
the
Iudges
which
they
should
haue
received
,
should
doe
Iustice
according
to
the
will
of
the
rector
of
their
Vniversitie
.
2.
Against
the
Kings
Authoritie
.
BEcause
by
vertue
of
an
Institution
inserted
and
related
in
a
Bull
which
they
haue
obtained
in
the
yeare
1540.
of
our
holy
Father
the
Pope
,
they
retaine
for
their
Generall
,
(
which
since
their
comming
till
this
present
day
hath
beene
a
stranger
,
a
Spanyard
,
or
one
borne
vnder
the
subiection
of
Spaine
)
all
kinde
of
government
and
soveraigne
authoritie
over
the
Scholars
which
are
of
their
Colledges
,
and
over
their
Colledges
,
and
over
all
others
which
are
of
their
Societie
,
for
to
obey
him
alwayes
,
and
to
acknowledge
him
as
one
who
hath
the
authoritie
of
our
Lord
Iesus
Christ
:
and
in
their
Vow
they
doe
promise
to
him
as
to
one
which
keepeth
the
place
of
God
,
all
obedience
,
not
onely
for
things
obligatory
,
but
also
for
all
other
things
,
though
there
should
appeare
no
other
thing
to
them
but
a
signe
of
the
Generalls
will
,
without
any
expresse
commandement
:
in
doing
all
things
that
which
should
be
commanded
,
in
perswading
themselues
things
to
be
lawfull
,
&
in
renouncing
through
a
blind
obedience
,
all
advice
and
iudgement
to
the
contrary
,
suffering
themselues
to
be
carried
and
vsed
even
as
a
dead
corpse
,
willing
that
no
particular
person
,
directly
or
indirectly
,
without
the
permission
and
approbation
of
their
Generall
,
should
aske
or
cause
to
be
asked
of
our
holy
Father
the
Pope
,
nor
of
any
other
which
is
without
the
Societie
,
any
grace
for
himselfe
or
for
another
:
and
that
he
should
beleeue
if
he
did
not
obtaine
his
desire
of
his
Generall
,
or
with
his
consent
thereto
,
it
is
not
for
him
,
though
it
were
for
diuine
service
:
and
on
the
contrary
,
if
it
be
fit
for
him
by
the
consent
of
his
Generall
,
which
keepes
the
place
of
our
Saviour
Iesus
Christ
for
him
,
that
he
shall
obtaine
it
.
And
that
which
is
said
of
the
Colledges
,
must
also
be
vnderstood
to
be
said
of
the
Vniversities
of
the
Societie
in
the
same
manner
,
that
if
they
obtaine
that
which
they
demand
for
this
present
time
,
one
must
no
more
say
for
the
royall
Vniversitie
of
Paris
,
but
the
Vniversitie
of
the
Societie
,
and
so
of
all
other
Vniversities
of
this
Kingdome
.
And
although
that
he
doth
communicate
his
power
to
other
inferiors
,
which
are
in
the
Provinces
,
Visitators
and
Commissioners
,
yet
alwayes
he
hath
power
to
approue
or
to
abrogate
and
make
void
that
which
they
haue
done
,
and
to
ordeine
in
all
things
that
which
he
thinketh
good
.
And
alwayes
they
must
obey
him
and
honor
him
as
one
that
is
the
Vicar
of
our
Lord
Iesus
Christ
.
3.
Against
the
Kings
authoritie
.
BEcause
they
haue
a
generall
Agent
which
giveth
advice
to
the
Generall
,
as
well
of
persons
as
of
things
,
as
it
pleaseth
them
.
And
their
Generall
hath
foure
Assistants
,
one
for
the
businesse
of
France
and
Germany
,
another
for
Italy
,
and
Sicilie
,
the
other
for
Spaine
and
Portugall
,
and
the
other
,
of
the
Indies
.
And
generally
for
to
doe
all
things
he
hath
a
Generall
Atturney
of
the
Societie
,
and
he
hath
every
yeare
a
Catalogue
sent
vnto
him
of
all
the
Houses
and
Colledges
of
the
Societies
,
and
another
of
all
the
Persons
which
are
in
every
Province
.
They
will
also
that
there
be
in
their
pretended
Vniversities
,
a
Secretary
of
the
Societie
,
which
keepeth
a
Booke
,
in
which
are
written
all
the
names
of
them
which
come
to
their
Colledges
,
and
which
of
them
doe
receiue
promise
to
obey
the
Rector
,
and
to
obserue
the
Constitution
.
And
if
there
are
some
which
doe
refuse
to
giue
their
names
,
and
so
doe
register
and
enrole
themselues
,
that
he
should
represent
and
shew
them
,
because
they
should
take
more
particular
care
to
the
Schollers
,
whose
names
are
written
in
the
Booke
of
the
Vniversitie
,
and
to
speake
it
plainely
and
without
dissembling
,
what
can
one
say
more
,
as
to
enrole
,
seduce
,
and
retaine
men
for
a
stranger
,
as
alwayes
till
this
day
the
Generall
of
the
said
Societie
hath
beene
.
And
this
cannot
be
done
in
this
Kingdome
without
contrarietie
,
and
infinite
preiudice
against
our
Kings
authoritie
.
No
man
can
serue
two
severall
Lords
,
nor
can
as
a
subiect
and
vassall
acknowledge
the
one
and
the
other
for
his
Lord
.
Our
King
cannot
be
acknowledged
&
served
by
a
Generall
,
vpon
the
conditions
here
related
,
more
then
our
holy
Father
the
Pope
can
be
in
qualitie
of
a
Vicar
of
our
Lord
Iesus
Christ
,
as
the
Vniversities
with
the
Catholick
,
Apostolick
,
and
Romane
Church
do
acknowledge
him
for
;
and
as
a
Generall
that
keepeth
Gods
place
,
and
is
our
Lord
Iesus
Christs
Vicar
.
But
if
they
for
to
cloak
this
,
say
like
as
they
are
wont
to
doe
,
that
they
doe
vow
a
particular
obedience
to
his
Holines
,
we
answer
,
that
they
doe
suppresse
it
with
that
is
written
in
their
Constitutions
,
that
it
is
onely
for
the
Missions
,
and
then
they
attribute
to
their
Generall
the
full
direction
and
power
thereof
.
4.
Against
his
Maiesties
ordinary
Iustice
.
BEcause
that
no
bodie
of
their
Colledges
and
Houses
,
whether
he
be
of
those
which
haue
made
their
vowes
,
or
of
their
helpers
,
or
of
their
Scholars
,
must
suffer
himselfe
to
be
examined
for
civill
and
much
lesse
for
criminall
causes
,
without
the
leaue
of
their
superior
,
and
that
their
superior
must
giue
no
leaue
,
if
it
be
not
in
causes
that
concerne
the
Catholike
Religion
.
5.
Against
the
dignitie
and
power
of
the
Cardinalls
,
Archbishops
,
and
Bishops
.
BEcause
they
take
away
from
them
the
power
and
authoritie
of
iudging
,
otherwise
then
is
written
in
the
Bull
,
which
they
say
they
haue
gotten
for
to
chuse
Iudges
,
Conservators
in
all
civill
and
criminall
causes
,
and
they
doe
constraine
them
to
iudge
and
decree
according
to
their
Institutes
and
Constitutions
,
by
vertue
of
a
Bull
which
they
had
from
our
holy
Father
the
Pope
Gregory
XIII
.
in
the
yeare
1584
which
beareth
the
greatest
excommunication
,
and
a
penaltie
of
disabilitie
to
any
Offices
and
Benefices
fecular
and
regular
of
all
Orders
,
and
that
as
soone
as
the
deed
shall
be
done
,
without
any
other
declaration
against
all
persons
of
whatsoever
condition
and
preeminence
they
be
,
which
shall
withstand
and
gainesay
directly
and
indirectly
the
Institutes
and
Constitutions
of
this
Societie
,
or
any
of
the
Articles
,
vnder
colour
of
disputation
,
and
seeking
of
the
truth
.
As
also
they
doe
attribute
by
vertue
of
their
Institutes
,
Bulls
,
and
Constitutions
to
their
Generall
the
Government
of
all
the
Vniversities
which
they
haue
.
Which
doth
exclude
and
depriue
the
Cardinalls
,
Archbishops
,
and
Bishops
,
of
the
right
and
possession
that
they
haue
as
Governors
and
Protectors
of
the
Vniversities
,
which
doth
exempt
many
Clerkes
of
their
Iurisdiction
.
6.
Against
the
Rules
and
Professions
of
other
Orders
.
BEcause
that
they
in
respect
of
those
which
haue
a
portion
with
them
that
they
take
the
best
Benefices
for
to
ioyne
them
to
their
Colledges
,
as
it
is
manifest
;
and
in
respect
of
others
,
they
doe
take
vpon
them
all
the
Faculties
,
Concessions
,
exemptions
,
Indulgences
,
remission
of
sinnes
,
and
grace
as
well
spirituall
as
temporall
,
granted
,
&
yet
to
be
granted
,
which
haue
and
shall
haue
in
time
to
come
all
other
Orders
of
beggars
,
Priests
and
Nunnes
for
to
enioy
by
them
for
all
and
in
the
whole
so
as
they
themselues
,
yea
with
as
much
right
,
and
they
will
that
all
those
which
doe
studie
in
their
Colledges
,
or
pretended
Vniversities
,
doe
promise
that
they
will
obey
them
,
and
obserue
all
their
Constitutions
,
for
so
much
that
if
any
Priests
doe
studie
and
take
their
degree
and
promotion
,
as
there
doe
many
in
the
Vniversitie
at
Paris
,
and
other
Vniversities
,
they
should
be
bound
against
the
rules
of
their
Orders
and
Professions
,
to
promise
obedience
to
no
other
then
their
Superiors
.
7.
Against
the
young
Scholars
,
which
are
vnder
them
.
BEcause
the
professed
Societie
must
take
no
care
to
teach
in
their
Colledges
perfection
of
liuing
,
&
Letters
worthy
to
a
Christian
,
but
onely
those
which
are
esteemed
to
haue
the
Talent
,
for
they
shall
be
as
a
Nurse-gardian
to
the
professed
Societie
,
&
to
his
helpers
,
and
they
know
that
if
with
the
Colledges
the
Vniversities
were
also
committed
to
the
Societies
,
keeping
in
proceeding
,
the
manner
of
which
is
spoken
in
the
fourth
part
,
they
helpe
to
the
same
end
,
adding
thereunto
these
speeches
;
For
the
greater
good
of
God
,
and
the
generall
good
of
the
Societie
,
which
know
certainly
,
that
they
doe
not
establish
their
pretended
Vniversities
,
but
onely
for
their
particular
interest
and
profit
.
8.
Against
the
Wealth
of
the
Cities
which
doe
receiue
them
.
BEcause
they
giue
power
to
themselues
for
to
leaue
and
abandon
the
Colledges
and
Houses
which
they
haue
established
,
and
they
say
that
if
it
doth
appeare
by
proofe
that
the
Societie
is
more
hindred
then
helped
,
and
their
Generall
doth
finde
no
remedie
for
it
,
that
it
then
is
