1But that place is thus to be understanded. He that is spiritual, in that he is such a one, cannot in things divine and such as pertain unto salvation, be rightly judged of any man, which is not endowed with the same sprite that he is. The wicked and worldly ones count him oftentimes for a seditious, unpure, & infamous fellow: but only God and his sprite looketh upon the hearts.

1Lastly Bonifacius concludeth, that there is one only chief power which longeth unto the pope, least we should seem with the Manichees to make many beginnings.2 And he addeth: That god in the beginning, and not in the beginnings, created the world. We also abhor from the Manichees, and do put one only beginning, and pronounce one only fountain and offspring of all powers, namely, god and his word, without which can be no power, either civil or Ecclesiastical. For the foundation of either of them dependeth of the word of god, & so we make but one beginning & not two. Farther, if Bonifacius will urge these words of Genesis: In the beginning god created. &c. there ought to be in the world but one only king. For when Paul said: One Lord, one faith, one baptism, he added not one Pope.
