Ansvvere to the Admonition. Pag. 211. Sect. 1. 2.

You borrowed these arguments from the very Papistes, who by* 1.1 the selfe same reasons goe about to proue the Popes supremacie, for thus they argue

Among the Israclites there was one highe Priest, which had au∣thoritie ouer the rest, therefore there must be one high Priest (which is the Pope) ouer the whole Church of Christ. Master Caluine in his Institutions, chap. 8. dothe answere this reason on this sorte:* 1.2 Quod in vna natione fuit vtile, id in vniuersum 〈◊〉〈◊〉 ext〈1 line〉〈1 line〉dere nulla ratio cogit: imò gentis vnius & totius orbis longè diuersa erit ratio. That vvhiche is profitable to one nation, can not by any reason be extended to the vvhole vvorld, for there is great difference betvvixt the vvhole vvorld and one nation. And a little after: Perinde enim est acsi quis contendat, totum mundum à praefecto vno debere regi, quia ager vnus non plures praefectos habeat: It is euen as thoughe a man shoulde affyrme, that the vvhole vvorld may be gouerned of one King, bicause one fielde or tovvne hath but one ruler or master.
