The answer.
How chaunce you set not downe your note in English, did you
meane that no bodie should know it, but such as could vnderstand
latine? If the ministerie of married men had not béene as wel ac∣cepted,
and liked of the church then, as the ministerie of others,
neither would Philips dealing at Samaria béene so well allow∣ed
of as it was, neither yet had saint Peter béene a méete messen∣ger
to haue bene sent about that businesse. But Iohn was liked
of bicause he was a virgin, it well appeareth that neither Philip
nor Peter were disliked, bicause they were married. But I praie
you tell me, what church now may be so bold, as to send the Pope
on their errand, or about their businesse? Either the Church then
had greater authoritie then now, and Peter lesse then his suppo∣sed
successors haue now, or els the Popes now are prouder, and
take more vpon them then hée did.
