In

It

as

by

For

yeares
,
after
the

yeares
which
I
haue

:
Hithertoo
wée
haue
proued
by
the
hi●tory
,
and
by
argument
,
and
also
by
authoritie
,
that
Peter
was
neuer
at
Roome
.
Now
let
vs
confute
their
presumptions
and
obiections
.
They
obiect
,
that
the
olde
Authors
saee
,
that
hée
was
there
:
The.
1.
ob●ection
I
answer
,
that
those
olde
Authors
haue
no
staffe
too
stick
too
,
no
scripture
,
no
sufficient
authoritie
,
not
one
woorde
,
neyther
out
of
the
olde
Testament
,
nor
of
the
newe
.
Let
vs
confute
Egesippus
,
out
of
whom
they
haue
all
their
fables
,
whereby
they
woold
proue
Peter
to
haue
bin
at
Roome
.
First
this
fabulous
and
lying
Egesippus
is
not
hée
that
Eusebius
maketh
mention
of
Lib.
fourth
.
Cap.
8.22
.
For
hée
gathered
his
books
out
of
the
Ghospell
●ecundum
Hebraeos
&
Syros
,
&
hée
wrote
commentaries
,
wherin
hée
wrote
the
doctrine
&
actes
of
the
preaching
of
the
Apostles
in
an
homely
&
simple
stile
inmanner
of
an
history
,
and
did
contend
erfectually
against
Heretiques
:
this
fabulous
Egesippus
wrote
in
Greke
.
Secondly
,
this
Author
wryteth
an
highe
stile
,
&
affecteth
an
other
kynd
of
phrase
:
the
other
is
an
homely
stile
,
as
Hieron
noteth
.
This
suborned
Egesippus
wryteth
fyue
bookes
of
the
destruction
of
Hierusalem
,
out
of
Iosephus
:
the
other
the
actes
of
the
church
,
from
the
passion
of
Christ
to
his
own
tyme
,
which
was
after
Christes
natiuity
about
.145
.
yeares
.
Thirdly
,
the
trew
Egesippus
wrote
the
actes
of
the
preaching
and
doctrine
of
the
Apostles
,
out
of
the
Ghospell
secundum
Hebraeos
&
Syros
:
this
suborned
Egesippus
gathered
his
bookes
out
of
Iosephus
,
neyther
doth
Hierom
nor
Eusebius
make
mention
of
them
.
Fourthly
,
this
Eusebius
that
wée
haue
,
maketh
mention
of
Constantinople
,
vnto
the
which
the
citie
of
Rome
was
equall
in
dignitie
.
This
was
done
in
the
tyme
of
the
Emperoures
Gratian
and
Theodosius
in
the
yeare
of
Christ
,
as
Pantaleon
noteth
,
383.
The
true
Egesippus
was
about
the
yeare
of
Christe
,
146.
and
this
Councell
spoken
of
in
the
latter
Egesypus
,
was
about
the
yere
of
Christ
383.
so
that
now
it
is
manifest
,
that
this
latter
Egesippus
was
200.
yeare
and
aboue
after
the
former
,
and
therefore
such
a
one
as
serued
to
set
out
fables
for
the
mayntenance
of
the
Pope
&
his
superstition
:
reade
more
in
Cornelius
Gualterus
,
vpon
Egesippus
,
and
in
Vilierius
.
If
a
man
doo
well
consider
those
fables
,
that
Egesippus
writeth
lib.
3.
c.
2.
how
that
Peter
and
Simon
Magus
dyd
contende
whyther
of
them
should
renine
Nero
his
Cosen
that
was
dead
,
and
how
that
,
if
Peter
could
not
doo
it
,
hée
should
dye
for
it
:
and
if
Simon
could
not
,
&
that
Peter
could
doo
it
,
then
Simon
should
suffer
death
.
And
howe
that
Peter
met
Christ
at
the
gates
of
Rome
,
and
asked
of
Christ
,
Domine
quo
vadis
?
And
how
that
Christ
answered
,
I
come
ageyne
to
bée
crucified
:
and
that
Peter
returned
and
was
crucified
with
his
héeles
vpward
.
It
may
bée
easely
considered
that
hée
was
one
of
the
Popes
friends
,
&c.
Ireneus
in
the
first
chapter
of
his
third
booke
writeth
,
that
Matthewe
wrote
his
Gospell
what
tyme
as
Peter
and
Paule
preached
the
gospell
at
Rome
,
&
founded
the
hurch
there
.
If
Peter
was
at
Rome
at
that
tyme
when
Mathewe
wrote
his
Gospell
,
then
dyd
not
hée
come
to
Rome
in
the
second
,
third
,
or
fourth
yeare
of
Claudius
,
as
the
Catholiques
reporte
.
For
as
yit
Caligula
was
aliue
,
and
in
the
third
yeare
of
his
Empyre
and
reigne
,
Matthewe
wrote
his
Gospell
.
Neyther
was
Paule
at
Rome
in
the
tyme
of
Caligula
,
in
whose
third
yeare
Matthew
wrote
his
Gospell
,
euen
eight
yeare
after
Christes
ascension
,
and
41.
years
after
his
natiuitie
.
For
it
was
24.
years
after
Christes
deathe
,
before
Paule
came
to
Rome
.
Howe
could
Paule
preache
at
Rome
the
eyght
yeare
after
Christes
ascen●ion
,
when
as
hée
came
not
to
Rome
vntill
the
24.
yeare
after
Christes
ascension
?
Could
hée
preache
at
Rome
before
that
hée
was
there
?
It
was
the
seconde
yeare
of
Nero
,
that
Paule
came
to
Rome
,
as
shall
appeare
most
manifestly
to
them
that
will
conferre
the
28.
of
the
Actes
of
the
Apostles
,
with
the
order
of
tyme
,
with
the
yeares
of
the
Emperours
,
and
with
Eusebius
in
Chronice
,
and
Hierome
in
the
lyues
of
Ecclesiasticall
writers
.
Consider
whether
that
Ireneus
can
make
the
3.
yeare
of
Caligula
,
which
was
the
eight
yeare
after
Christes
Ascension
,
to
bée
the
second
yeare
of
Nero
,
whiche
was
the
24.
yeare
after
Christes
ascension
.
Nowe
,
if
Peter
came
not
to
Rome
tyll
Paule
was
there
,
or
if
hée
were
there
with
Paule
at
any
tyme
,
then
could
not
Peter
bée
there
tyll
the
seconde
yeare
of
Nero
,
so
that
hée
was
neyther
at
Rome
in
the
tyme
of
Caligula
,
who
reygned
thrée
yeare
:
nor
in
the
tyme
of
Claudius
,
who
reygned
14.
yeare
.
So
that
by
this
order
,
and
playne
demonstration
,
Ireneus
woordes
are
neyther
of
force
,
neyther
woorthy
to
bée
read
,
&
much
lesse
,
to
bée
credited
.
Hierome
writeth
,
that
Peter
came
to
Rome
the
second
yeare
of
Claudius
,
which
is
no
trewer
then
this
that
the
same
Hierome
sayeth
that
Peter
was
the
prince
of
the
Apostles
.
Was
hée
the

Could
Peter
come
to
Rome
the
second

of

,
when
as
Hierome
himselfe
in
the
same
place
sayeth
,
that
first
hée
went
to
Antioche
,
where
hée
was
Bishop
,
and
from
thence
hée
went
and
preached
to
the
dispersed
Brethren
in
Ponto
Gallatia
,
Cappadocia
,
Asia
,
and
Bithinia
,
and
then
went
to
Rome
the
seconde
yeare
of
Claudius
and
continewed
there
25.
yeare
.
If
he
came
to
Rome
after
that
hée
had
bene
at
Antioche
,
and
in
these
other
countries
,
as
Hierome

,
then
came
not
hée
to

as

contrudeth

For

Onely

The

Ergo
hée
forgyueth
no

As
the

is
the

so
is
Christ
the
heade
of

This

it
is
euident
hy
the
18.
chapter
of
Matthew
,
ver.

where
the
same
doctrine
is
applied
to
all
Christians
,
Augustine
writeth
thus
vpon
this
place
:
Uppon
this
Rocke
,
which
thou
confessed
,
Peter
:
vpon
this
rocke
which
thou
acknowledgest
:
saying
,
thou
art
Christ
the
sonne
of
the
immortall
God.
Upon
this
Rocke
I
will
buylde
my
Congregation
:
that
is
vppon
my selfe
the
sonne
of
the
immortall
GOD
:
vppon
mée
I
will
buylde
it
,
and
not
vppon
thee
.
Men
béeing
disposed
to
buylde
vpon

,
sayd
,
I
holde
of
Apollo
,
an
other
of
Paule
,
an
other
of
Cephas
,
which
is
Peter
.
The
same
Augustine
vpon
the
.xxi.
of
Iohn
,
sayeth
,
this
congregation
can
not
fall
,
bycause
it
is
founded
vpon
the
Rocke
,
of
the
which
Rocke
,
or
Petra
,
Peter
hath
his
name
:
for
Petra
,
which
is
the
Rocke
,
hath
not
his
name
of
Peter
,
but
Peter
of
Petra
the
Rocke
.
As
Christ
hath
not
his
name
of
a
Christian
,
but
a
Christian
of
Christ.
Thus
farre
Augustine
with
many
mo
reasons
.
Christ
is
the
end
of
my
fayth
,
sayeth
Ambrose
vpon
the
ninth
of
Luke
,
the
end
of
my
fayth
is
the
Sonne
of
God.
Wherfore
beléeue
as
Peter
did
,
that
thou
maist
bée

The
grace
of
Christ
is
great
,
which
hath

almost
all

But

giueth

to

,
ergo
hée
is

.
I
deny
your
assumption
,
called
otherwyse
the
Minor.
Wée
proue
it
(
say
they
)
by
S.
Augustine
,
who
sayeth
:
I
wold
not
beléeue
the
Scriptures
,
if
the
catholique
church
should
not
moue
mée
.
I
answer
:
This
church
that
Augustine
speaketh
of
,
is
not
the
church
of
Rome
:
and
therfore
the
Pope
giueth
no
authoritie
to
the
church
.
If
Augustine
had
meaned
the
church
of
Rome
,
then
their
argument
myght
haue
semed
to
haue
had
a
good
ground
.
But
Augustine
meaned
the
church
of
Christ
,
as
the
Crede
it self
expoundeth
it
.
What
is
the
Catholique
Church
?
Nowe
,
if
Rome
bée
all
the
world
and
a
communion
of
Saincts
only
,
then
is
it
the
only
Church
:
but
it
is
neyther
all
the
world
,
neyther
a
communion
of
Saincts
,
therfore
it
is
not
the
Church
.
Are
shamefull
synners
Saincts
?
horrible
offenders
Holy
?
Augustine
meaned
by
the
Catholique
Church
,
Christ
and
his
Disciples
,
and
the
consent
of
all
them
,
which
sawe
Christ
,
which
heard
him
and
his
Disciples
:
and
therfore
is
it
called
in
the
common
Crede
of
Nice
,
the
Apostolique
church
.
If
Augustine
did
imagine
that
the
Scriptures
should
take
authoritie
of
the
church
,
it
had
bin
an
absurditie
:
considering
that
there
is
no
congregation
so
perfect
,
no
company
so
holy
,
no
men
so
pure
,
which
do
not
dayly
desire
God
too
forgyue
them
their
offences
,
as
they
forgyue
them
that
offend
against
them
.
If
wée
saye
,
wée
sinne

are

there

Did

You

the

is

I
answer
,
that
when
the
Pope
is
cut
of
by
death
,
where
is
your
head
?
is
it
not
dead
?
where
is

is

But
the

that

lyueth
alwayes

eyther

I

that
it

Hitherto
I
haue
repeted
&
confuted
(
althogh
they
nede
no
confutation
,
they
were
so
falsely
alleged
)
some
obiections
although
not
al
which
they
collect
out
of
the
Scriptures
,
or
out
of
other
probable
authors
.
Now
I
will
note
certein
such
absurdities
,
as
they
bring
out
of
their
lawes
,
decrées
,
decretals
,
&
out
of
such
as
haue
for
lucre
,
promotion
,
&
for
flatterie
bestowed
their
time
in
vttering
absurdities
,
and
such
absurdities
,
as
do
more
effectually
ouerthrowe
&
deface
their
dooings
,
then
any
of
our
answers
or
confutations
can
.
These
I
thought
good
to
signifie
,
least
that
any
man
should
thinke
that
the
tyme
is
euyll
bestowed
in
writing
them
,
worse
in
reading
:
and
worst
of
all
,
in
printing
.
Ye
shall
therefore
vnderstand
,
that
there
is
nothing
so
abhominable
,
nothing
so
absurde
,
so
vnreasonable
and
contrarie
to
all
sense
,
whiche
they
dare
not
bothe
speake
,
write
,
printe
,
aduouche
,
and
also
defend
.
As
for
example
:
What
say
they
,
though
Iulius
the
second
Pope
dyd
throwe
Peters
keyes
into
Tyber
,
putano
de
Dio
,
dispetto
de
Dio
,
bring
mée
my
hogges
fleshe
.
And
likewyse
for
his
Peacock
,
when
one
asked
,
why
hys
holynesse
was
so
mooued
,
hée
aunswered
:
If
God
caste
Adam
out
of
Paradise
for
eating
of
an
Aple
,
what
would
you
haue
mée
too
doo
for
my
Peacock
?
Is
not
my
peacock
better
then
an
Aple
?
And
thus
they
aunswer
such
blasphemies
:
that
,
in
that
the
Pope
was
a
man
,
hée
offended
,
but
in
that
hée
was
Christes
Uicegerent
,
hée
could
not
sinne
:
For
,
saye
they
,
though
hee
were
a
desperate
man
,
yet
the
seate
and
place
,
maketh
him
holye
.
Now
I
come
to
their
Obiections

they
alleage

their
Canons
and
Doctours

Iesu
good
Lord
,
what
,
and
howe
mightie
a
Prelate
is
our
holy
father
the
Pope
:
hath
not
hée
authoritie
ouer
the
Aungelles
in

,
and
also
ouer
the
damned
soules
in
hell
,
as
Petrus
Costus
reporteth
?
I
aunswere
,
that
all
these
sayings
are
full
of
iniquitie
,
and
rather
to
bée
punished
by
the
Magistrate
with
the
swoorde
,
then
answered
with
the
pen.
The
17.
Obiection
.
How
say
you
to
this
golden
sentence
.
Sext.
decret
.
that
the
Pope
maketh
the
place
holy
,
and
therefore
Rome
is
without
spotte
or
wrincle
.
I
answer
,
if
he
be
an
euil
man
,
he
depraueth
the
place
,
and
that
the
Pope
is
euill
,
his
frutes
do
declare
.
What
if
the
Pope
,
sayeth
Busgradus
carie
all
the
worlde
too
hell
with
him
,
or
beléeue
that
there
is
no
life
to
come
,
(
as
some
did
)
or
be
an
homocide
,
or
a
Sodomite
,
or
as
blasphemous
as
Iulius
the
thirde
,
or
as
euell
as
the
deuill
,
or
if
he
blaspheme
the
virgin
Mary
as
a
ruffian
,
as
the
said
Iulius
did
,
we
must
beleue
that
wée
must
be
saued
by
him
,
or
elles
wée
must
be
dampned
without
redemtion
:
for
whatsoeuer
he
dothe
wée
must
beleue
it
as
an
article
of
our
faith
,
for
who
may
or
dare
aske
him
why
he
dothe
so
.
What
shall
wée
answere
to
these
blasphemies
,
they
are
not
worthy
to
bée
repeted
,
to
horrible
to
be

to
absurde
to

confuted
,
to
vile

that
the

is
neither

Neuter

If

both
,
than
is
he
a

,
or

Finally

I
aunswere
,
that

so

But
thinke
you
that
hée

Surely

hath
made
