The Council, that ye imagine, was holden in Rome by Pope Sylvester, is nothing else but a heap of childish Vanities. The Holy discrete Learned Fathers say there, Nemo Presbyterorum Chrisma conficiat: quoniam Christus à Chrismate vocatur: Praesul Summus non judicabitur à quoquam: Quoniam scriptum est, Non est Discipulus supra Magistrum. Neque ab Augusto, neque ab omni Clero, neque à Regibus, neque ab omni Populo Judex judicabitur:1 No Priest may make, or hallow the Chrism: For Christ of Chrism hath his name. The Highest Prelate (that is, the Pope) more be judged of no man: For it is written, The Scholar is not above his Master. The Judge (that is, the pope) shall not be judged, neither by the Emperor, nor by all the Clergy, nor by Kings, and Princes, nor by the whole people. Such and other like good stuff have you in your Council of Rome.
