So should every man that is called to the office of a Bishop or pastor: it is not enough he go to his diocese or personage, but that he must walk abroad there and cry out the commandment of the Lord. Or else they be with all their title, glory, pomp and name, dome dogs, subject unto the vengeance and plague of God. And this is the mark thou shouldest know a Bishop, and priest by: by his tongue that soundeth the word of the Lord, and not by his cap or outward vesture. So should the judge go abroad in his country, and speak and declare every where justice. So should the provost, heads of Colleges, masters of schools, go and teach the ⟨p. cxiii⟩thing appertaineth to their place and vocation.
