M. Harding finding not one of the whole number of the Bishops of Rome, once named the Head of the whole Church, therefore thought it best to found his proof upon S. Peter. And for that cause, others of his side have advanced S. Peter above all Creatures. Boni•acius saith, That God took Peter in Consortium Individuae ⟨p. 311⟩Trinitatis,1 into the Fellowship even of the Indivisible Trinity: and that from him, as from the Head,2 he poureth all his gifts into the Body. Hereof M. Harding forceth his argument thus: Peter was the Head of the Apostles, and so of all other inferiors: Ergo, The Bishop of Rome is the Head of the Universal Church.
