Hart. Yet *the rock, no doubt, whereon Christ did promise that he would build his Church and the gates of hell should not prevail against it, is applied by the Fathers to Peters successors in the church of Rome. S. aAustin is a witness thereof against the Donatists, whom he biddeth number the Priests (that is the Popes) even from the seat of Peter, and mark their succession: affirming it to be the rock against which the proud gates of hell prevail not. 3And S. bJerome writing to Damasus the Pope, avoucheth as much: I am joined saith he, in communion to your holiness, that is, to Peters chair. I know that the Church is builded upon that rock.
