(2) The conclave, celebrated in Avignon, made a determined attempt to restrict the pope's absolute power and increase the influence of the Sacred College of Cardinals. All the twenty-five cardinals who participated in the conclave swore, several of them with reservations, that the pope should not create cardinals until the total fell below sixteen; that there should not be more than twenty, and that the choice of new cardinals should require the consent of at least two-thirds of the existing ones. Such consent should also be necessary for proceedings against a cardinal or for the alienation of any part of the papal state; half the revenues of the Holy See, as allotted by Pope Nicholas IV in 1289, should be guaranteed to the college. These and other provisions having been agreed, the conclave, anxious to preclude interference by the French king, speedily elected Étienne Aubert. The new pope showed his independence by, on July 6, 1353, declaring the capitulation agreed by the conclave, to which he himself had assented subject to its being lawful, null as violating the rule restricting business during a conclave to the election and as infringing the plenitude of power inherent in the papal office, Kelly, The Oxford Dictionary of Popes, p. 221.
