That there have been divers letters read in both houses of parliament, and at the secret committees of both houses, from several cardinals and others at Rome, and also from other po{nsh bishops and agents of the pope' in other foreign parts, which do apparently show the great correspondencies between the Duke of York and the pope; and how the pope could not choose but weep for joy at the reading of some of the duke's letters, and what great satisfgiction it was to the pope to hear ...the duke was ad-* vanced to the catholic religion: that the pope ^ has granted briefs to the duke, sent him beads, ample indulgendes, with much more to this pur- pose.
