5. Let me add only, that this Defendant telleth us, ⟨p. 145⟩•hat the Son of God is contained in that bread that is eaten •n the Eucharist: and yet by their doctrine there is no bread at all there. How is he in bread where no bread is? Or how is there no bread there, where in bread the Son of God is (as he telleth us) contained? What is this but that which Bellarmine condemneth in the Lutherans, to forge us ma Christ impanated, or enclosed in bread? Nor doth their own doctrine any whit mend the matter. For as Bellarmine saith of Rupert us and some others that they make Christ have na breaden body: so may we as truly say the same of them. For what is a body made of bread but a breaden Body? But that (you see) this Doctor here swerveth from and saith, that Christs body is but couched in Bread.
