Pan.

Haile you annointed deputies of heauen;

To thee King Iohn my holy errand is:

I Pandulph, of faire Millane Cardinall,

And from Pope Innocent the Legate heere,

Doe in his name religiously demand

Why thou against the Church, our holy Mother,

So wilfully dost spurne; and force perforce

Keepe Stephen Langton chosen Archbishop

Of Canterbury from that holy Sea:

This in our foresaid holy Fathers name

Pope Innocent, I doe demand of thee.
