Note 507 — THE TRAVELS OF BERTRANDON DE LA BROCQUIÈRE. (continued 2)

Reading edition

This holy council concluded its sittings by citing to its tribunal, and deposing the pope, whilst the pope commanded it to dissolve itself, and convoked another at Ferrara. At Florence he had undertaken to form a union of the Greek and Latin churches, and with this design had sent the ambassadors to the emperor. He came actually to Italy, and signed at Florence that political and simulated union before mentioned. [507]
