Touching Victor, that wrote the Story of the Vandals, he is neither Scripture, nor Council, nor Doctor, nor writeth the Order, or Practise of the primitive Church: nor is it well known, either of what credit he was, or when he lived: nor doth he call the Bishop of Rome the Head of the Universal Church. Only he saith, Rome is the Chief, or Head Church of all others. Which thing of our part, for that time, is not denied: as may better appear by that is written before in sundry places of this Article.1 So doth Prudentius call Bethlehem the Head of the World: Sancta Bethlem Caput est Orbis So likewise Chrysostom giving instructions unto Flavianus touching the City of Antioch, saith unto him, Cogita de totius Orbis Capite. Think thou of (Antioch, that is) the Head of all the World. Hereby is meant a Head of Dignity, or Honour: and not of Rule.

Onely he saith, Rome is the Chiefe, or Head Churche of al others. Whiche thinge of our parte, for that time, is not denied: as may better appeare by that is written before in sundrie places of this Article.1 So dooth Prudentius cal Bethleem the Head of the World: Sancta Bethlem Caput est Orbis So likewise Chrysostome geuing instructions vnto Flauianus touchinge the Citie of Antioche, saith vnto him, Cogita de totius Orbis Capite.
