Wikipedia description:

Christopher St. Germain (1460–1540) was an English lawyer, legal writer, and Protestant polemicist during the reign of Henry VIII. He is best known as the author of Doctor and Student (1528), and as an early theorist of equity in English jurisprudence. In his later years, St. Germain became involved in theological controversies, notably engaging in a printed debate with Sir Thomas More over the division of authority between the clergy and the laity.
