Ignatius who was S. Iohn his scholer, and lyued in Chrystes* 1.1 time, in his Epistle ad Trallianos, speaketh thus of the authoritie of a Bishop ouer the reste: Quid aliud est Episcopus quàm quidam obtinens principatum,* 1.2 & potestatem supra omnes? VVhat is a Bishop, but one hauing povver and rule ouer all? And in his Epistle ad Smyrnenses, he writeth on this sorte: Ho∣nora quidem Deum vt authorem vniuersorum & Dominum: Episcopum autem, vt Sacerdotum Principem, imagi〈1 line〉〈1 line〉em Dei ferentem: Dei quidem per Principatum: Christi verò per Sacerdotium. Honor God as the author and Lorde of all thinges, and a Bishop as the chiefe of Priestes, bearing the Image of God: of God bicause of his su∣perioritie: of Christ by reason of his Priesthoode. And a little after: Let laye men be subiecte to Deacons, Deacons to Priests: and Priestes to Bishops, the Bishop to Christ. And agayne: Let no man doe any thing vvhiche perteyneth to the Churche, vvithout the consente of the Bishop. And agayn: He that attēpteth to do any thing vvithout the Bishop, brea∣keth peace, and confoundeth good order. The like saying he hath in his Epistle ad Magnesianos. These three Epistles doth Eusebius make men∣tion of Lib. 3. cap. 35. &. 36. and Hiero. de viris illustribus.
