Of the number of the Sacraments, we shall have more convenient time to speak hereafter. There, gentle Reader, I trust, thou shalt see M. Hardinges great question easily answered, with what face we say, we allow the Sacraments of the Church. In the mean season it may please thee, to weigh these words of Cardinal Bessarion, the Bishop of Tusculum, one of M. Hardinges especial Catholique Doctours:1 Haec Duo Sola Sacramenta in Evangelijs manifestè tradita legimus: These only two Sacraments we read to be delivered us plainly in the Gospel. ⟨p. 203⟩Here Bessarion nameth,2 not Seven Sacraments, as M. Harding doth, but only Two. Certainly we refuse no Sacrament, that ever was either ordained by Christ, or used and practised by the Apostles.
