Here M. Harding saith, He will Trippe, & Dance lightly over this Article. And therefore notwithstanding he would seem to holde De Jure divino, that is by the Scriptures, yet for haste he allegeth not any one word of the Scriptures, as of him self, but only upon the report and credit of others. Howbeit Pope Zosimus in all that long contention,1 he had with the Bishops of Africa, touching these matters, never alleged any word of the Scriptures, but only the Council of Nice, which he him self had falsified. And Meltiades writing hereof to the Bishops of Spain,2 seemeth to claim only by Custom, and not by any right of God's Word.

Howbeit Pope Zosimus in al that longe contention,1 he had with the Bishoppes of Aphrica, touchinge these maters, neuer alleged any woorde of the Scriptures, but onely the Councel of Nice, whiche he him selfe had falsified. And Meltiades writing hereof to the Bishoppes of Spaine,2 séemeth to claime onely by Custome, and not by any right of Goddes Woorde.
