But here I can not let pass M. Doctors ill dealing / which reciting so much of master Calvin / cutteth him of in the waste and leaveth quite out that which made against him / that is which master Calvin •ayth in these words: Although (saith he) in this disputation / it may not be passed over / that this office of archbishop or patriarch was most rarely and seldom used / which dealing seemeth to proceed of a very evil conscience.

Luke distinguisheth and putteth ¹a difference / between the office of a Prince and the office of the minister of the church / leaving dominion to the Princes / and taking it altogether from the ministers.

Luke / which would have it nothing else but a prohibition of ambition / but also how at a word / he cutteth the throat of your archbishop and bishop / as it is now used. And afterward speaking of the churches of Denmark / he saith they have Christ for their head & for the outward discipline / they have magistrates to punish with the sword / & for to exercise the Ecclesiastical discipline / they have bishops / pastors / doctors / which may keep men under with the word / without using any corporal punishment. Here is no mention of archbishops / Primates
