Baronius, in his eleventh volume, which appeared in 1605, included a Tractate on the Investiture of Naples, peculiarly offensive to Spanish pretensions. After the death of Clement VIII (March 3, 1605) he had aspirations for the succession, but Spain exercised her right of exclusion to his discomfiture. Philip III, by edict of October 3, 1610, prohibited the Annals with the Tractate under severe penalties for those who should not, within twenty days, present their copies for expurgation.—Reusch, Der Index, II, 277-80.
