Now but by his leave, we will reduce his five acts to three: for thus speaketh the ktext. And as they did eat. Jesus took bread and blessed it and brake it, and gave it to the Disciples, and said, take, eat, this is my body. Whence it is manifest, that the giving of the Bread to the Disciples, which no man (I suppose) will deny to have been the administration of it, went before the two last acts, which the B. reckoneth out. Nothing therefore is left to him, but to say, that their gesture of Sitting might have been changed, either in the taking, or in the blessing, or in the breaking, or else between the taking and the blessing, or between the blessing and the breaking; yet doth the text knit all the three together by such a contiguity and connection, as showeth unto us, that they all did make up but one continued action, which could not admit any interruption.
