VERS. XXXI.
〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉.
Simon, Simon.

LET us change the Name and person: Thomas, Thomas: or Philip, Philip, Satan hath desired, &c. but I have prayed, &c. And who would from hence have pick out an Argument for the Primacy of Thomas, or Philip, over the rest of the Apostles, and the universal Church? And yet this do the Romanists in the behalf of Peter. Who would not have taken it rather as a severe chiding? As if he should have said, Thou Thomas or Philip, art thou so hot in contending for the Primacy, whiles Satan is so hot against all of you? and whilst you are at strife amongst your selves, he is at strife against you all? under such a notion as this, I doubt not, our Saviour did speak to Peter; and that in these words he found a severe reprimand rather than any promotion to the Primacy.
