1^9 of the dignity of his position, was mainly concerned for the aggrandizement of the spiritual power of the Papacy. In the height of his contest with Henry IV, the victory which this Pontiff desired was the victory of Catholicism ; the restoration of the universal supremacy of the Roman Church. When rebuking the Venetians for their congratulation of the heretical monarch on his accession, he thus addressed the Venetian ambas- sador : — c I beseech you to recall at least one step. The Catholic... king has recalled many because we desired it, not from fear of us, for our strength, as compared with his, is but as a fly compared with an elephant j but he has done it from love, and because it was the Pope who had spoken, the 'vicegerent of Christ, who prescribes the rule of faith to him, and to all others? And when, shortly afterwards, Monseigneur de Luxem- bourg, bearing a charge from the Catholic peers attached to Henry IV, was admitted to an interview with his Holiness, and expatiated upon the personal qualities, the courage and magnanimity of the king, c the Pope, 5 says Ranke, c was quite enchanted with this descrip- tion.
