Rainoldes. Or, at least, you take it, though neither I do grant it, nor is it proved by S. Jerome. But this is proved, and I grant it, that he did not err in the faith of the Trinity, when Damasus was Bishop of Rome.

I know that the Church is builded upon that rock. Behold, to Peters chair. He speaketh not to Damasus as in respect of Damasus, but in respect of the chair, and so of the succession of the Bishops of Rome: that, what he saith to one, belongeth to them all.
