Bishops⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁵ But I haue vsed none of these thinges. Neuerthelesse, I wrote not these thinges, that it shoulde be so done vnto me: For it were better for me to die, then that any man should make my reioycing vayne ¹⁶ For if I preache the Gospell, I haue nothyng to reioyce of: for necessitie is layde vpon me.

Uerily that when I preache the Gospell, I make the Gospell of Christ free, that I misuse not myne aucthoritie in the Gospell
