And ityrannous Usurpers have power more then is meet: they have potentiam sine potestate, might without right: as had Nimrod, kthat mighty Hunter, not of Deere, but of men. And where they have right, they do not use it aright oft-times, but abuse it. And therefore to appeal unto such, from Herod to Caesar, were but as for the lamb to appeal from the Fox to the Wolfe, as lChrist termeth the one, or from the Wolfe to the Lyon, as mthe Apostle stileth the other: or for the silly Hare to appeal from the Hound to nthe Hunter.
