Touching that M. Harding calleth the Pope the Prince of Pastors, he might have remembered, that the right of this name belongeth only unto Christ.1 S. Peter saith, That when Christ, the Prince of Pastors shall appear, ye may receive the Uncorruptible Crown. Now, to infea•fe the P•pe with Christs peculiar Titles, a man might think it were great blasphemy. Certainly S. Cyprian saith,2 Nemo nostrum Episcopum se esse Episcoporum constituit: None of us appointeth him self Bishop of Bishops: much less the Prince of all Pastors. And in the Council of Constantinople it was Decreed, that the Bishop there should have Even, and Equal Authority with the Bishop of Rome.

Nowe, to infea•fe the P•pe with Christes peculiare Titles, a man mighte thinke it were greate blasphemie. Certainely S. Cyprian saithe,2 Nemo nostrum Episcopum se esse Episcoporum constituit: None of vs appointeth him selfe Bishop of Bishoppes: mutche lesse the Prince of al Pastours. And in the Councel of Constantinople it was Decreed, that the Bishop there shoulde haue Euen, and Equal Authoritie with the Bishop of Rome.
