The B. of Sarisburie.

Somme Merry fellow, I warrant you, ye say. And thus, now in mirth, now in sadness, ye have of long time mocked the world, and forced Kings and Emperors to be your slaves.¹ As for your New Doctors, Jack of Andrew, and Sir Clement, as you evermore call him, the Apostles fellow, we weigh them none otherwise, then they be worthy. But, touching Gregory Nazianzene, it is true, that he saith, The Truth, and Might of God's Word infinitely passeth all worldly Power. But what maketh all this for the Pope, that walloweth only in his Temporalties, and worldly cares, and as well in Preaching God's Word, and Ministering the Sacraments, as also in other Spiritual exercises, is as far inferior to any mean Priest, as the Earth is inferior to the Heavens?

Somme Mery felovve, I vvarrante you, ye saie. And thus, nowe in mirthe, nowe in sadnesse, ye haue of longe time mockte the worlde, and forced Kinges and Emperours to be your selaues.¹ As for youre Newe Doctours, Iacke of Andrevve, and Sir Clement, as you euermore cal him, the Apostles felovve, we weighe them none otherwise, then they be worthy. But, touching Gregorie Nazianzene, it is true, that he saith, The Truthe, and Might of Goddes Worde infinitely passeth al wordly Power. But what maketh al this for the Pope, that walloweth onely in his Temporalties, and worldly cares, and as wel in Preachinge Goddes Woorde, and Ministring the Sacramentes, as also in other Spiritual exercises, is as farre inferioure to any meane Prieste, as the Earth is inferioure to the Heauens?
