As for schools and universities / it is sufficient commandment of them / in that it is commanded / that both the magistrates and pastors should be learned ⟨p. 119⟩/ for he that commandeth that they should be learned / commandeth those things and those means / whereby they may most conveniently come to that learning. And we have also examples of them commended unto us in the old Testament. As in the book of the Judges / when Debora commendeth the university ¹men / and those which handled the pen of the writer / that they came out to help in the battle against the enemies of God. And in the book of Samuel / and of the ²Kings / where Nayothe and Bethel / Jericho / and a place beyond Jordan / are specified places / which were schools or universities / where the scholars of the Prophets / were brought up in the fear of God / and good learning. The continuance of which schools and universities amongst the people of God / may be easily gathered of that which S. Luke writeth in the Acts / where it may appear ³that in Jerusalem there were certain Colleges appointed for several country men / so that there was one College to receive the Jews and Proselytes which came out of Cilicia / an other for those that came out of Alexandria. &c. to study at Jerusalem. And if any man be able to show such evidence for archbishops and archdeacons / as these are for universities and schools / I will not deny but it is as lawful to have them / as these.

As for scholes and vniuersities / it is sufficient commaundement of them / in that it is commaunded / that bothe the magistrates and pastors should be learned ⟨p. 119⟩/ for he that commaundeth that they shoulde be learned / commaundeth those things and those meanes / wherby they may most conueniently come to that learning. And we haue also examples of them commended vnto vs in the old Testament. As in the boke of the Iudges / when Debora commendeth the vniuersity ¹
