First the Ans. saith / that I go about to prove that our Saviour 1Christ doth not reprove the ambition off his disciples: which is a manifest untruth. For I say that he doth reprove it / and give also larger place to the reproof off their ambition / then he. for where he would have it to consist only in that they ambitiously desired to rule over their fellows: I affirm that he did not only take them up for that / but also that they desired to rule one over an other / which was not lawful. Secondly he saith / I have falsified his words, in that I father off him that our Saviour reprehended only the ambition of his disciples. which I do not / for my words ascribe unto him that he said / they were reproved not only for desire off rule / but for rule to oppress. Then to maintain this quarrel / he affirmeth he said / our Saviour reproveth the tyrannical rule off kings off the Gentiles: as though that made any thing to prove / that he did in his disciples only reprove ambition. For reproof of oppression in kings: was not part off reprehension off the disciples.
