Chrysostom followeth / which as M. Doctor saith / ruled not only the church of Constantinople / but the churches of Thracia / Asia / and Pontus / & he saith it out of Theodorete. But herein it may appear / that either M. Doctor hath a very evil conscience in falsifying writers / & that in the points which he in controversy / or else he hath taken his stuff of certain at the second hand ⟨p. 115⟩without any examination of it at all. For here he hath set down in stead of (had care of the churches in Thracia. &c.) ruled the churches / the Greek is / epoieito ten promethcian, it is translated also (prospexit) so that it appeareth he fetched it neither from Theodorite in Greek nor in Latin. And what is this to prove an archbishop / that he had care of these churches? there is no minister but ought to have care over all the churches through christendom / and to show that care for them / in comforting or admonishing of them by writing / or by visiting them / if the necessity so require / and it be thought good by the churches / and leave obtained of the place where he is minister / upon some notable and especial cause / being some man of singular gifts / whose learning and credit may profit much to the bringing to pass of that thing / for the which he is to be sent.

After this sort also was * Ireneus bishop of Lions / sent by the French churches unto the churches in Phrygia. And after this sort have M. Calvin / and M. Beza been sent from Geneva in Savoy / to the churches of France.

For heere he hath set downe in stead of (had care of the churches in Thracia. &c.) ruled the churches / the Greke is / epoieito ten promethcian, it is translated also (prospexit) so that it appeareth he fetched it neyther from Theodorite in Greeke nor in Latine. And what is thys to proue an archbyshoppe / that he had care of these churches? there is no minister but ought to haue care ouer all the churches through christendome / and to shew that care for them / in comforting or admonishing of them by wryting / or by visiting them / if the necessitie so require / and it be thought good by the churches / and leaue obtayned of the place where he is mynister / vppon some notable and especiall cause / being some man of singular giftes / whose learning and credite may profite much to the bringing to passe of that thing / for the which he is to be sent.
