But unto every necessary Sacrament of the Church, two things specially are required: that is, a Sensible outward Element, and the Word of Institution. And without either of these there is no Sacrament. Therefore S. Augustine saithe,1 Accedat Verbum ad Elementum, & fit Sacramentum: Join the Word of Christs Institution unto the sensible Creature, or outward Element: and thereof is made a Sacrament. The Element, or Creature in Baptism is Water: the Elements, or Creatures in Our Lords Supper, are Bread, & Wine: The words of Institution are common, and known.

The other five Sacraments want, either the Word, or the Element, or both together: As for example, Matrimony, Order, and Penance have the Word of God, but they have no outward Creature, or Element. Extreme Unction, and Confirmation have neither Word, nor Element. Therefore these five later, in proper use of speech, are not taken for Sacraments of the Church.
