Again, ye seem to say, the Pope of right was evermore President in all Councils. This, if ye know it, is an other Untruth: If ye know it not, it is an error.1 For it is plain, that in the First Council of Nice Pope Julius was not President, but Eustathius the Bishop of Antioch. The Popes Legates, as it is said before,2 were placed beneath in the fourth room: In the Fifth Council of Constantinople, Menna the Bishop of the same City, was President, & not the Pope. 3In the Second Ephesine Council, Dioscorus the Bishop of Alexandria was President. In the Second Council of Carthage it seemeth Gennedius was the President.
