Whereas you say, The Body of Christ is present in deed, & that his Death is Absent only: If ye list to cavil, as ye do, &, as your manner is, idly to play with the words, and phrases of the Ancient Fathers, ye might as well, and by as good warrant, say, that Christs Death is as Present, as his Body. For S. Cyprian saithe,1 Passio Christi est Sacrificium, quod offerimus: The Sacrifice, that we offer, is the Passion of christ. Chrysostom saith, In Mysterijs Mors Christi perficitur: The Death of Christ is wrought in the Mysteries: S. Hierome saithe, Christus nobis quotidiè Crucifigitur: Unto us Christ is Crucified every day. And S. Gregorie saithe, Christus iterum in hoc Mysterio Moritur: In this Mystery (of the Holy Communion) Christ is put to Death again. By these words thus pressed & racked, as your manner is, ye may easily prove, not only y• Christs Body, but also that his Passion, & Death, & Blood shedding is verily Present.
Whereas you saie, The Body of Christe is present in déede, & that his Deathe is Absente onely: If ye liste to cauille, as yée doo, &, as your māner is, idlely to plaie with the woordes, and phrases of the Ancient Fathers, ye might as wel, and by as good warrante, saie, that Christes Deathe is as Presente, as his Body. For S. Cyprian saithe,1 Passio Christi est Sacrificium, quod offerimus: The Sacrifice, that wee offer, is the Passion of christe. Chrysostome saith, In Mysterijs Mors Christi perficitur: The Deathe of Christe is vvrought in the Mysteries: S. Hierome saithe, Christus nobis quotidiè Crucifigitur: Vnto vs Christe is Crucified euery daie. And S. Gregorie saithe, Christus iterum in hoc Mysterio Moritur: In this Mysterie (of ye Holy Communion) Christe is put to Deathe againe. By these woordes thus pressed & rackte, as your manner is, ye maie easily proue, not onely y• Christes Body, but also that his Passion, & Deathe, & Bloude sheddinge is verily Presente.
