Note 16 — Chapter XXI
E. M. Lamond translation
“Hist. Zeitschr.,” 94, 1905, p. 409. Of Clement VII, Köhler writes (ibid.): “Pope Clement VII, who had to make a stand against Henry VIII of England in the question of bigamy, never suggested a dispensation for a second wife, though, to all appearance, he was not convinced that such a dispensation was impossible.”
