Macarius a Priest of Athanasius,1 (as it was laid to his Charge by his accusers) pulled Ischyras from the Altar as he was at2 Mass, overthrew the Holy Table brake the Chalice. The matter brought to judgement, Athanasius and those Bishops both denied the fact and also though it were granted, yet defended the same as well done, because Ischyras was not a lawful Minister of the Church. And why so? because he was not lawfully made Priest, nor with Churchly laying on of hands consecrated. By which example besides other points we are taught, what to judge of your pretensed Communion.
