Where it is said / the name of an Archbishop is attributed unto Athanasius: he should have told who doth attribute that name / and then he had had his answer. For nether in his works / nor in any ancient writer that speaketh of him / is it found. Indeed a Lou• nist doth so call him: but he hath no credit in this cause. Where he allegeth that the name of Archbishop is found in the 2. Apology of Athanasius: ⟨p. CCCCXCV⟩if he show▪ Athanasius him self speaking so in his own language / I believe him: if he can not / he must change his stile / and in steed off Athanasius / say the translator off Athanasius. And beside that the Emperor set one John a Miletian / ether heretic / or schismatic to be more then quarter master with him: if it be true that he hath so earnestly disputed before / that an archbishop, and Metropolitan be all one, Alexandria being the metropolitan city 1only / and the bishop thereof the only metropolitan: it must needs fall out / that where this other Archbishop is supposed off the D. to have been / there could be no archbishop / and consequently that that is the translators fault.
