Note 088
The royalty of Robert, either promised or
bestowed by the pope, (Anna, l. i. p. 32,) is sufficiently
confirmed by the Apulian, (l. iv. p. 270.)
Romani regni sibi promisisse coronam Papa ferebatur.
Nor can I understand why Gretser, and the other papal
advocates, should be displeased with this new instance of
apostolic jurisdiction.
