In the sixte Canon of that Councell it is thus written: This* 1.2 Councell dothe determine him to be no Bishop, vvhich is made vvithout the consent Metropolitani Episcopi, of the Metropolitane.

In the. 13. Canon mention is made of a Patriarche, and of an* 1.3 Archedeacon diuers times, and his office there in diuers poyntes declared, as it is also in the seuenth Canon of the same Councel. In the. 25. Canon is named bothe Patriarche and Archebishop, and* 1.4 declared what authoritie they had in their Prouinces, and in admit∣ting of Bishops. So is it likewise in the. 26. and. 27. Canons of the same Councell.
