An other quarrel, that M. Harding piketh to us, is, that we have no Intention, or mind to Consecrate. But how long hath M. Harding been a Wizard?1 Or who made him so privy to our Intention? S. Paul saith, Noman can tell, what is in Man, but the Sprite of Man, that is within him. These follies are answered at large in my Former Reply to M. Harding. Verily by the late Doctors of that side, the Priest may have Intention, to Consecrate the one half of the Host, and not the other: Or, having thirteen Hosts, he may have Intention, to Consecrate but twelve. And thereof groweth a great question, when he cometh to the reckoning, and seeth his error, which of all that whole Company of Hosts shall go unconsecrate. Yea Abbot Panormitane saith, Etiamsi Sacerdos celebret, ut Deus perdat aliquem, tamen bene Consecrat: Notwithstanding the Priest say Mass, with Intention, that God would destroy some man, yet doth he Consecrate nevertheless. Into such toys these men throw them selves, with their fond Intentions.
An other quarrel, that M. Hardinge piketh to vs, is, that wee haue no Intention, or minde to Consecrate. But how longe hathe M. Hardinge benne a Wisarde?1 Or who made him so priuie to our Intention? S. Paule saithe, Noman can tel, what is in Man, but the Sprite of Man, that is within him. These folies are answeared at large in my Former Replie to M. Hardinge. Verily by the late Doctours of that side, the Prieste maie haue Intention, to Consecrate the one halfe of the Hoste, and not the other: Or, hauing thirtéene Hostes, he maie haue Intention, to Consecrate but twelue. And thereof groweth a greate question, when he commeth to the reckeninge, and seeth his errour, whiche of al that whole Companie of Hostes shal goe vnconsecrate. Yea Abbate Panormitane saithe, Etiamsi Sacerdos celebret, vt Deus perdat aliquem, tamen bene Consecrat: Notwithstandinge the Prieste saie Masse, with Intention, that God would destroie somme man, yet dooth he Consecrate neuerthelesse. Into sutche toies these menne throwe them selues, with theire fonde Intentions.
