Philip The Fair versus Boniface VIII |
|
King Philip the Fair defines his power
(1297 A.D.)
The government of the temporality of the kingdom belongs to the king alone and to no one else and he does not have, nor recognize, any superior. Nor does he intend to submit himself to or be ruled by anyone in any matter concerning things temporal in his kingdom. |
