But if Bread, and Wine, as M. Harding saith, have no Power to work Resurrection, what Power then can his Accidents, and empty Forms have to work the same? For, touching the Body of Christ it self, his own Doctors could have told him, that it entereth not into our Bodies. For thus it is noted, & published for sound, and certain Doctrine, upon the Decrees:1 Certum est, quòd quàm citò Species teruntur dentibus, tam citò in Coelum rapitur Corpus Christi: ⟨p. 222⟩It is certain, 2and out of doubt, that as soon as the Accidents, or Forms are touched with the teethe, straight way the Body of Christ is taken up into Heaven.
But if Breade, and VVine, as M. Hardinge saithe, haue no Power to woorke Resurrection, what Power then can his Accidentes, and emptie Fourmes haue to woorke the same? For, touching the Body of Christe it selfe, his own Doctours could haue tolde him, that it enteth not into our Bodies. For thus it is noted, & published for sounde, and certaine Doctrine, vpon the Decrees:1 Certum est, quòd quàm citò Species teruntur dentibus, tam citò in Coelum rapitur Corpus Christi: ⟨p. 222⟩It is certaine, 2and out of doubte, that as soone as the Accidentes, or Fourmes are touched with the teethe, straight waie the Body of Christe is taken vp into Heauen.
