[1428] Muratori, Annal. ann. 1569.—Henrion, Hist. des Ordres Religieux I. 196.—Fleury, Liv. CLXXI. chap. 26.—De Thou, Lib. L.—The calm Muratori stigmatizes the Umiliati as “troppo scorretto e corrotto ordine,” and Henrion, who cannot certainly be regarded as a prejudiced authority, declares that “les excès des Humiliés surpassoient ceux des laïques les plus débauchés.” Pius V., in his Bull suppressing the order, is equally emphatic, and vouches for the truth of the miracle by which the life of St. Charles was preserved.—Bull. Quemadmodum sollicitus (Mag. Bull. Rom. II. 326).
[1429] Vû que par toute l’Italie on le vit reconnoitre pour l’usage et observations de toutes les ordonnances, on n’en voit une seule entretenue de celles qui concerne la reformation de la vie et mœurs des ecclésiastiques.... Et ce peut dire pour ce regard que l’église n’est en autre lieu de la Chrétienté si déréglée et difforme qu’ès pays où le pape a commandement et puissance absolu.—Le Plat, VII. 259.
