T. C. Page. 75. Sect. 3.
In neyther of the sentences heere alleaged out of Cyprian, nor in all his works as hathe bin before noted, is there one worde of an Archbishop, and yet M. Doctor sayth, that he speaketh of an Archbishop: before he shewed the name without the office, and now he goeth about to shew the office without the name: so that he can neuer make both the name and the office meete togither. To shape out an Archbishop here, you must needes interprete the words Bishop and priest, Arch∣bishop and high priest: for Cyprian maketh mention of no other name of ministerie in those places, and if you may haue this scope of interpreting, it will not be harde for you to proue that stones be bread, and that chalke is cheese.

Io. Whitgifte.
Epiphanius lib. 2 tom. 2. haer. 69. dothe call the Bishop of Alexandria sometyme Bi∣shop,* 1.1 and sometime Archbishop. The Councell of Calceden in like maner calleth the same men, as Flauianus, Dioscorus, Leo, & other, sometimes Bishops, and sometimes Archebishops: the lyke is to be séene in other authors and wryters. So that the o∣mitting of the title is no reason at all to disproue the thing. It is certayne that in Cyprians time, this name Papa was a common name to many Bishops, those espe∣cially that were of fame, as M. Foxe at large declareth, tom. 1. fol. 11. And yet doth not Cyprian vse that title commonly when he wryteth to Cornelius, or to any other Bi∣shop. This therfore is but a féeble argument.
