Hovve knovve you that the fourth chapter ad Ephe. is a perfecte patterne* 1.2 of all ecclesiasticall gouernment? vve haue novve neyther Apostles, nor* 1.3 Euangelistes, nor Prophetes, and yet are they the cheefe in that patterne, neyther haue vve there eyther Bishop, or Presbyter, or Diaconus or Catechista, or Lector, and yet are these necessarie partes in ecclesiasticall gouernment:

Paule nameth neyther Pope nor Archbishop I graunt, and the Church is not gouerned by names, but by offices. Euery Bishop then vvas called Papa: and Anacletus, that vvas nexte after Peter, (if there be any weight in his vvords) nameth Archbishops.
