The Works of Christopher Marlowe

Dr. Faustus (B Text)


Act: 3 Scene: 1
Proud Lucifer, that state belongs to me.
But thus I fall to Peter, not to thee.
Pope Adrian, let me have some right of law;
I was elected by the Emperor.
Pope Julius swore to princely Sigismond,
For him, and the succeeding Popes of Rome,
To hold the emperors their lawful lords.
