Howe be it,1 this is not Origens only Judgement: but the general, and agreeable Doctrine of all others the Catholic Fathers. And to allege one in stead of many, S. Augustine saith, as he is before alleged, Si ad res ipsas, quibus Sacramenta tractantur, animum conferamus, quis nesciat, eas esse corruptibiles? Si ad id, quod per illas res agitur,
