A catalogue of such testimonies in all ages as plainly evidence bishops and presbyters to be both one, equall and the same in jurisdiction, office, dignity, order, and degree, by divine law and institution, and their disparity to be a meere humane ordinance long after the Apostles times; : and that the name of a bishop is onely a title of ministration, not dominion, of labour not of honour, of humility, not of prelacy, of painefullnesse not of lordlinesse, : with a briefe answer to the objections out of antiquity, that seeme to the contrary.
