Likewise he writeth of him self unto Eulogius:1 Beatitudo vestra mihi sic loquitur, Sicut Jussistis. Quod Verbum Jussionis, peto, à meo auditu removete. Nō Jussi: Sed quae utilia visa sunt, indicare curavi: Your Holiness saith thus unto me, (being the Bishop of Rome ) As you have Commanded. Have away this word of Commanding from my Hearing, I beseech you. I Commanded you not: but that I took to be the best, I thought good to show you. The fault therefore, that Gregory findeth with John the Bishop of Constantinople, stood not in calling him self the Only Bishop, for so he never did, but in Bidding, & Commanding, & Claiming Universality of Jurisdiction over the whole Church of Christ.

Haue awaye this woorde of Commaundinge from my Hearinge, I beseeche you. I Commaunded you not: but that I tooke to be the beste, I thought good to shewe you. The faulte therefore, that Gregorie findeth with Iohn the Bishop of Constantinople, stoode not in calling him selfe the Onely Bishop, for so he neuer did, but in Bidding, & Commaunding, & Claiming Vniuersalitie of Iurisdiction ouer the whole Churche of Christe. And for that cause he saithe vnto Eulogius:
