M. Hardinge.

But when Constantine was Baptized, he gaue place to* 1.1 S. Syluester then Bishop of Rome, and to al other Successours of S. Peter. O how that irketh your haries, that so great an Emperour, and the first that openly professed Christianitie, shoulde by the same Holy Ghoste, who called him to the Faithe of Christe, be made to‡ 1.2 departe from the Cittie, whiche ruled the worlde, and to yelde his owne Palaice partly a Churche to our Sauiour Christe, partely a dwellinge house for the Bishops of Rome? Aske of Constantine, why he submitted his necke to S. Syluester. VVe haue cause to thinke, that Constantius the heretike, sonne of Constantine, was not very glad of his Fathers dooinge. And yet God suffered him not to retourne and dwel at Rome but to leaue that Cittie free to the Rulers of the Churche.
