If we give honour and reverence to none / let us not only have none again / but let us be had as those that are unworthy to live amongst men. I fear there be of those / which are your favourers / Ecclesiastical persons / that if they should meet with my Lord Mayor of London / would strain courtesy / whether he or they should put of the cap first. We give the titles of Majesty / to the Queen our sovereign / of grace / to Duke and Duchess / of honour / to those which are in honour / and so to every one / according to their estate. If we miss / it is not because we are not willing / but because we know not always what pertaineth unto them / and then our fault is pardonable. For answering churlishly / it is answered before in the seventh Article.
