"Tis a gross visible errour, which Tertullian teaches in his Book of Idolatry cap. 18. That all the marks of Dignity and Power, and all the ornaments annexed to Office, are forbid Christians, and that Jesus Christ hath placd all these things amongst the pomps of the Devil, since he himself appeared in a condition so far from all pomp and splendour."
