First,1 here I note the falsehood of the Lady interpreter, who turneth the Latin speaking of Athanasius. Cùm vocatus esset ab Imperatore ad Concilium Caesariense: When he was called by the Emperor to his Council at Caesarea. Where by adding the word his, of her own, she or a worse shrew under her name, goeth about to persuade, as Heretics do, that the Councils be to be accounted the Councils of Temporal Princes, not of Bishops: and that they be the heads of them, not the Bishop of Rome. This much to her. Now Sir to you Defender. Al these examples serve you to no purpose. It is not denied you, but that in cases, men may refuse to come to Councils. Your examples declare, that Catholic Bishops shunned to come unto the unlawful Councils of Heretics. But ye holding strange opinions, condemned by the Church, deny to come to the lawful Councils of Catholic Bishops. When ye have proved us to be Heretics, I mean the Fathers of the late Council, then may ye justly allege the example of Athanasius, Chrysostom, Maximus, Paphnutius, Cyril, Paulinu, and such other, for not coming to the Council.

VVhere by addinge the worde his, of her owne, she or a worse shrewe vnder her name, goeth about to perswade, as Heretiques doo, that the Councels be to be accompted the Councels of Temporal Princes, not of Bishoppes: and that they be the heads of them, not the Bishop of Rome. This mutche to her. Nowe Sir to you Defender. Al these examples serue you to no purpose. It is not denied you, but that in cases, menne maie refuse to comme to Councels. Your examples declare, that Catholique Bishops shunned to come vnto the vnlauful Councels of Heretiques. But ye holdinge strange opinions, condemned by the Churche, denie to comme to the lauful Councels of Catholike Bishoppes. VVhen ye haue proued vs to be Heretiques, I meane the Fathers of the late Councel, then maie ye iustly alleage the example of Athanasius, Chrysostome, Maximus, Paphnutius, Cyril, Paulinu, and sutche other, for not comminge to the Councel.
