His words be these, Post ista adhuc insuper Pseudoepiscopo sibi ab Haereticis constituto, navigare audent, & ad Petri Cathedram, unde unitas Sacerdotalis exorta est, à Schismaticis, & Profanis literas ferre: nec cogitare, eos esse Romanos, quorum Fides, Apostolo praedicante, laudata est: ad quos Perfidia habere non possit accessum: After this, having a False Bishop appointed unto them by Heretics, they dare to take shipping, and unto Peters Chair, and unto that Principal Church, from whence the Priestly unity grew first, to carry letters from Schismatics, and lewd men: Neither consider they, that the Romans are that people, whose Faith is praised by S. Paul the Apostle: unto whom Unfaithfulness (of reports, & tales) can have no access.
His woordes be these, Post ista adhuc insuper Pseudoepiscopo sibi ab Haereticis constituto, nauigare audent, & ad Petri Cathedram, vnde vnitas Sacerdotalis exorta est, à Schismaticis, & Profanis literas ferre: nec cogitare, eos esse Romanos, quorum Fides, Apostolo praedicante, laudata est: ad quos Perfidia habere non possit accessum: After this, hauing a False Bishop appointed vnto them by Heretiques, they dare to take shipping, and vnto Peters Chaire, and vnto that Principal Churche, from whence the Priestely vnitie grewe firste, to carrie letters from Schismatiques, and lewde menne: Neither cōsider they, that the Romaines are that people, whose Faith is praised by S. Paule the Apostle: vnto vvhome Vnfaithfulnesse (of reportes, & tales) can haue no accesse.
If ye doubt of this Exposition, read these words, touching the same, going before in the same Epistle: 1Roman cum Mendaciorum suorum merce navigarunt. Quasi Veritas post eos navigare non posset: quae Mendaces linguas rei certa probation conuinceret. They sail to Rome with the Merchandise of their Lies: as though the Trueth could not sail after them, that by proof of the certainty, might control their lying tongues. This is that Unfaithfulness, that S. Cyprian speaketh of: and not the Unfaithfulness of Faith, and Doctrine.
