To your answer also unto the places of S. Matthew and Luke / the reply is made before. The place of the fourth of the first to the Corinthians / is well ⟨p. 127⟩alleged / for it teacheth a moderate estimation of the ministers / and a mean between the contempt and excessive estimation / neither can there be any readier way to breed that disorder which was amongst the Corinthians / as to say I hold of such a one / and I of such a one / and I of such an other / then to set up certain ministers in so high Titles and great show of worldly honour. For so cometh it to pass / that the people will say / I believe my Lord / and my Lord archbishop / whatsoever our parson say / for they be wise men and learned / as we see it came to pass amongst the Corinthians. For the Apostles because they had a show and outward pomp of speech / they carried away the people. For although Saint Paul sayeth that some said / I hold of ¹Paul / I hold of Apollo / I of Cephas / yet as it appeareth in an other place / they held one of this brave eloquent teacher / an other of that.

All that rule is tyrannical / which is not lawful / and is more then it ought to be / and therefore the place of Saint Peter is fitly alleged / whereof also I have spoken some thing before.

For so commeth it to passe / that the people will saye / I beleeue my Lord / and my Lord archbyshoppe / whatsoeuer oure parson say / for they bee wyse men and learned / as wee see it came to passe amongst the Corrinthyans. For the Apostles because they hadde a shewe and outwarde pompe of speache / they caryed away the people. For althoughe Saynt Paule sayeth that some sayde / I holde of
