Of the bishops before assigned nor one came, nevertheless the city of Basil, Zuricke, and Schafuse, and Abbecelle, Sangallium, Mallusia, with the neighbours of Rhetia, also, they of Strasborough, Ulmes, ⟨p. 427⟩Ausburgh, Lyndane, Constance, and Isne, sent thither their Ambassadors. The Doctors of Berne began their disputation: there were present Zuinglius, Oecolampadius, Bucerus, Capito Blaurerus, with other mo, which defended the affirmative. On the contrary part, the chief was Conradus Tregerius a friar Augustine: who shifting from the Scriptures, to the Doctors, not being permitted so to do by the moderators of the disputation, would dispute no more. This disputation endured 19. days,2 and in the end it was agreed, that the conclusions were agreeable to the word of God, and should be ratified not only in Berne, but also in certain other cities near adjoining. Furthermore that masses, altars, and images should be in all places abolished.
