  A briefe information of the affaires of the Palatinate The which consist in foure principall heads, which be 1. The acceptation of the crowne of Bohemia. 2. The difference and controuersie which hath ensued thereof, betweene the Emperour Ferdinand, and the King Frederick. 3. The proscription and bloudy proceeding that hath ensued thereof. 4. And the interposition of the King of great Brittaine, and with that which hath happened in the meane space.

summary:
  Likewise one cannot say , that by the reiection of the Archduke Ferdinand , the Estates haue reiected the person of an Emperour , for that then the Empire was vacant , and without Emperour , he comming afterward to the Imperiall dignity ; yea and more , if in that same very time , the body of the Empire had from it selfe offended with such a Reiection , the iudgement had no● belonged vnto the Archduke Ferdinand , but rather vnto the Elector Frederick , as chiefe Vicar of the Empire , representing in that time the person of the Emperour : And therefore it followeth , that the said Reiection is an act particuler , which doth no● touch the person of the Emperour , nor the body or corpes of the Empire , who neuer at any time medled or had to doe with the affaires betweene the Kings , and the Estates of Bohemia : now if so be that the Reiection is a particuler act , so also is the new Election which ensued the same a little while after , an act particular , of the like nature and condition . The subiect of the controuersie , is the Realme and Electorate of Bohemia , the which as it is said , for these many former ages to this time , hath beene holden to goe by Election , and though it hold in fee of the Empire , yet it doth not appertaine immediatly vnto the Emperours no more then the Electors , as well Sec●lars as Ecclesiastiques , and many other as well Electiues as hereditaries , appertaine not in propriety vnto the Emperours , for there hath beene many Emperours of Germany , that haue not been Kings of Bohemia , and that the Electors are not bound by any meanes to chuse the King of Bohemia for Emperour .
