But N•potians garment was no other then what •ath been showed, only as he was a man humble▪ and of modest, and meanest attire in ordinary life, so in matters of his Ministry, he was fine, neat, and magnificent; [Solicitus si niteret Altar, si parietes absque inligine, si pavimenta tersa, &c.] and therefore no doubt in that action arraying himself without any note of p•ide after the best mann•r of the people, he might well bequeath that garment to Hierome, who had i• been never so mean would have esteemed it for the donors sak•.
