Chancellour.
THE Bishop is not to sit with a Chancellor in his Court (as being a thing either beneath him or beside him) no more than the King is to sit in the King’s-Bench when he has made a Lord-Chief-Justice.
The Chancellour govern’d in the Church, who was a Lay-man: And therefore ’tis false which they charge the Bishops with, that they challenge sole Jurisdiction: For the Bishop can no more put out the Chancellor than the Chan∣cellor the Bishop. They were many of them made Chancellors for their Lives, and he is the fittest Man to go∣vern, because Divinity so overwhelms the rest.
