It abhorreth my heart to utter these words: They be so horrible, and full of Filth. Yet this, M. Harding, is your own Doctrine: This is your Sprite: This is it, that ye have so long maintained with Fire, and Sword. By such unclean, and uncivil speech, ye bring Christs Body it self into contempt, and loathsomeness in the hearts of the people.
It abhorreth my harte to vtter these woordes: They be so horrible, and ful of Filthe. Yet this, M. Hardinge, is your owne Doctrine: This is your Sprite: This is it, that ye haue so longe maineteined with Fire, and Swerde. By sutche vncleane, and vnciuile speache, ye bringe Christes Body it selfe into contempte, and lothesomenesse in the hartes of the people.
But that you may the better see the consent, & certainty of your own Doctrine, whereas you are well content to expound these words of Origen, as undoubtedly spoken of the Sacrament of Christs Body, your Instructor, and Master, Doctor Gardiner, telleth you, that the same words pertain nothing at all unto the Sacrament: And yet, unto what thing else they should pertain, it seemeth by the doubtfulness of his answer, he was never well resolved. His words be these:1 Non de Eucharistia loquitur Origenes, sed de Pane sanctificato per Verbū Dei, & Orationē, quem communiter manducamus: vel de eo, qui solebat dari Catechumenis, de quo Augustinus: Origen speaketh not (these words) of the Sacrament: but either of the Bread, that is sanctified by Our Lords word, and by Prayer, which Ʋ Vee commonly use to Eat: or else he speaketh of the Bread, that was given to the Novices, called Catechumeni, Ʋ Uhereof S. ⟨p. 261⟩Augustine speaketh. 2If this tale be true, then is yours Untrue, M. Harding, and all your long Commentary of Forms, and Accidents, is but in vain. It were good, ye took a day, that ye may be better agreed upon that, ye tell us.
