Princes, and Prelates. Of the Angells of this order Denys saith, that to Prin∣cipatus belongeth leading to bring king∣domes to the lykenesse of God. For it belongeth to these Angells of their of∣fice, to teach and bring the other more lower ordinately to God, and to teache the lowest person to be reuerenced in himselfe, and in his neighbour, and spe∣cially in a Prelate. Denys sayth, That therefore they are called Principatus, for that to them it belongeth to turne or bring other to ye first & principal begin∣ning, that is to God: the which they followe as it is possible, and as far forth as it is lawfull in office of presidence, they be lykened to the Prince. For Isi∣dore lib. 7. sayth, That Principatus are they that be ouer the companies of An∣gells, for that they ordaine and dispose the lower Angelles to fulfill the diuine seruice. They haue the name of Prin∣cipatus: some there be that serue, and some that stand by, Thousands of thou∣sands serued him, & ten hundred thou∣sand stood by. Dan. 7.9.10.
