He held a canonical visitation in the bishopric of Augsburg in 1518 and 1523.[1] In the wake of the papal bullExsurge Domine (1520), he moved to suppress the Reformation in the bishopric, particularly after 1522.[1] He was unable, however, to halt the spread of Protestant ideas in Augsburg. As a result, he sought to chart a middle course with the Reformers, supporting moderation at the 1530 Diet of Augsburg.[1] He was unable to prevent the expulsion of the Catholic clergy from the city of Augsburg in 1537.
