In the Imperfect Comment. (Edit. Commel. an. 1617.) ⟨p. 349⟩in Math. 20. Hom. 35.1 pag. 900.901. it is said as followeth [Fructum humilitatis terrestris posuit primatum caelestem, & primatus terrestris fructum, posuit confusionem caelestem. Quicunque ergo defiderat primatum caelestem, sequatur humilitatem terrestrem; quicunque autem desiderat, primatum in terra, inveniet confusionem in caelo: ut jam inter servos Christi •on sit de primatu certamen] That is [He hath made the Celestial primacy to be the fruit of terrestrial humility: and the fruit of earthly Primacy, he hath appointed to be Celestial confusion*. Whosoever therefore desireth Celestial primacy let him follow terrestrial humility: but whosoever desireth Primacy on earth, shall find confusion in heaven: That so among the servants of Christ there may be no strife for Primacy.]
