thoughtful and ringing words of Mr.. Bancroft;
but they have the right ring, and they have di-
rect bearing upon the action of the recent pie
nary council of the Roman Catholic Church
touching the relations of that church
to civil government; and, moreover they are a
direct contradiction of the doctrines that the
council has sought to impress upon our minds
to the effect that the Pope does not interfere
with the affairs of civil government, and that
therefore duty to the state and duty to the Pope
can never be in conflict. But then it appears
that the Pope does interfere in the affairs of civil
government, and when he does what wonder if
devout Roman Catholic should conclude that it
is his duty to obey an infallible Pope, even
though by doing SO he lays himself fairly open
to the charge of being disloyal citizen9
Now this interference of chu1chly power with
the affairs of state was one of the things against
which Wycliffe fought so strenuoGsly and so
successfully. He recognized the Pope's spiritual
authority as far as he could consistently, bot he
denied the civil jurisdiction; and the battles he
waged in behalf Of both civil and religious lib
erty, in Parliament, in Oxford, in Bruges, in his
parish at Lutterworth, by his preaching, by his
pamphlets, by the missionary work of his 'poor
priests, and especially by his giving to the peo
pie the Bible in their own language, prove him
to have been clear headed statesman, q true
patriot, and right loyal Protestant
