Such philosophy and so to abuse the scriptures & to mock with Gods word is after the manner of the Bishop of Rochesters1 ⟨image 57⟩divinity. For he in his sermon of the condemnation of Marten Luther proveth by a shadow of the old testament / that is by Moys•s and Aaron that / Satan and Antichrist our most holy father the Pope is Christs vicar and head of Christs congregation.

- 1Rochester.
Moses (saith he) signifieth Christ / and Aaron the Pope. And yet the pistle unto the Hebrews proveth that the hie priest of the old law signifieth Christ / and his offering and his going in once in the year in to the inner temple signify the offering where with Christ offered him self & Christs going in unto the father to be an everlasting mediator or intercessor for us. Nevertheless Rochester proveth the contrary by a shadow: by a shadow verily. For in shadows they walk with out all shame / & the light will they not come at but enforce to stop & quench it with all craft and falsehood / lest their abominable juggling should be seen.1
