On monday following being the thirty of October, the Prolocutor demanded of master Philpot, whether he would answer: who said he would so do, if they would according to their former determination, first answer sufficiently some of his arguments, yea even but one, although he had a dozen. So he was permitted to propound. His arguments was, Christ is ascended into heaven, therefore he is not present on the earth corporally. This argument Morgan, 1Weston, Harpesfield were gravelled with. And when Philpot denied that the Church was before the Scripture, and denied a frivolous reason which he brought to prove the same: Morgan said fie fie, he hath no learning. With whom when Philpot compared himself, the Prolocutor commanded him that he should come no more into the house. To whom Philpot said, he might think himself happy to be out of their company. Then after Morgan had rounded the Prolocutor in the ear, he said unto him: we are content, you should come into the house, so ye be apparelled in a long gown and a tippet as we be, and that you shall not speak but when I command you. Then quoth Philpot, I had rather be absent altogether. At length the thirteenth of December, Queen Mary commandeth Boner to break up the Convocation.2
