He outleagued the most vio- lent of the Leaguers in denunciations of the Prot- estants, in declaring that but one religion should be tolerated in France, and in clamoring for 202 King Henry IV. Embarrassment of the Leaguers. Excommunication of Henry IV, arms and munitions of war, that heresy might be utterly extirpated. The Leaguers thus found, to their great perplexity, the weapon which they had forged wrested from their hands and wield- ed against them. They had organized to drive the imbecil...e Henry III. from the throne. He had seized upon that organization, and was us- ing it to establish himself more firmly there. The situation of Henry of Navarre was now extremely critical. Pope Sextus V., besides giving the League his Papal blessing, had ful- minated against the King of Navarre the awful thunders of excommunication. The bull of excommunication was exceeding- ly coarse and vulgar in its denunciatory terms, calling the King of Navarre " this bastard and detestable jprogeny of Bourbons.'''' Henry replied to this assault in accents in- trepid and resolute, which caused Catholic Eu- rope to stand aghast.
