To my third reason / that it is not to be thought off all the Apostles, that they desired rule one over another, to the end they might use cruelty, and oppression over their fellows: he answereth not a word. It may be as I have showed / gathered off the scripture / which is not expressed in it: else how take you upon you to set down / that the 10. were as ambitious in disdaining, as the 2. were in desiring, seeing that is not expressed? If I be deceived, in thinking that those greek words be all one: I am deceived with the 1Grecians / for so I have red. And if your authority were any in this case / yet it is suspected: and therefore needed better proof / then your bare word. and albeit it were true / that the one hath sometime a more larger use, then the other: yet here it appeareth / that the indignation off these Apostles was such / as Aristotle defineth the other word by: that is / conceived off an opinion they had, that those 2two were not worthy to rule over them.
