Nilus, a Greek Author, hereof writeth thus: Sed ut etiam liquidiùs appareat, 1Papam non imperare alijs omnibus Episcopis, legatur Sextus Canon Synodi Nicenae: quo Disertè praecipitur, ut alijs Ecclesijs alexandrinus, alijs Romanus, alijs Antiochenus praesit: ut non liceat alteri alterius provinciam invader: That it may the more plainly appear, that the Pope hath no Government over all other Bishops, read the Six the Canon of the Council of Nice. There it is expressly Commanded, that the Bishop of Alexandria shall have the rule over certain Churches: and the Bishop of Rome over certain: and the Bishop of Antioch likewise over certain: and that it be not lawful for any one of them to invade an others Jurisdiction. Farther he saith, Quòd si quis suis non contentus, aliena appetit, ille san• meritò & Consuetudinis, & Sanctorum Canonum violator haberi debet: If any one (of these Patriarchs) not contented with his own, crave Dominion over others, (as doth the Pope) he ought of right to be called a breaker both of the Custom, and also of the Holy Canons.
