' But this reception by the Church of England is only to be understood with reference to the language constantly used by her divines, * and has not been expressed in any authoritative document. The only formal acknowledgment of these Councils that I know of is in a statute passed in the first year of Elizabeth, in which the power to try for heresy is limited to what has been adjudged to be heresy by the authority of canonical Scriptures, or by some of the first four General Councils, or by any ...other General Council wherein the same was declared heresy by the express and plain words of the said canonical Scriptures, or such as shall hereafter be determined to be heresy by the High Court of Parliament, with the assent of the clergy in their convocation (Eliz. , cap. I, sec. 36, A. D. 1558). Incidentally the authority of the first four General Councils is appealed to in the Homily 'on Fasting'; and again in one of the canons passed by the Convocation of 1640, in which Socinianism is described as being 'a com- plication of many ancient heresies condemned by the first four General Councils.
