This packing of places therefore between Coelestinus, and Cyrillus, was a Mystery, purposely canvassed, to keep the Bishop of Constantinople, whom the Pope evermore envied, out of countenance. For by this Policy, the Bishop of Alexandria, that should have had the Third Place, was handsomely shifted into the First: and the Bishop of Constantinople, which, in the Bishop of Romes absence, should have had the First Place, was removed down to the Second.
