Have not you read Austins Epistle to Hierom, Epistle 18. in which Austin writes thus to him, Quanquam enim secundum honorum Vocabula quae jam Ecclesiae usus obtinuit Episcopatus Presbyterio major est, &c. Surely you have read Hieroms Comment upon Tit. 1. Episcopi noverint see magis consuetudine, quam Dispositionis Dominicae veritate Presbyteris esse majores. To which A. B. Anselm subscribes, in his Comment on the same Chapter. What Sir, is Ecclesiae usus and Consuetudo, the same with Canon of Scripture?

Have not you read Estius, Sent. l. 4. d. 24. calling those Heretics that are not of your Opinion, and undertaking to prove the jus Divinum of Prelacy as you do? he saith thus. Quod autem jure Divino sint Episcopi Presbyteris Superiores, & si non ita clarum este sacris Scripturis, aliunde tamen satis efficaciter probari potest. Have you not read what Medina saith of the Fathers in this point; and what our Bishop Jewel, naming the same Fathers that Medina did, adds, Paul himself must be a Heretic if Bishop and Presbyter be not the same according to the Scriptures. Much more I might add, that I wonder you could write such a line.
