That ye surmise of Gelasius, is most untrue. He speaketh not one Word there, of the dividing of Christ, as you imagine: nor had he any cause so to speak. But he saith in most plain wise, It is Sacrilege to do the same thing, that you do, that is to say, to divide the Sacrament, & to Minister the One part, as ye do, without the other. Look better on your Books: and Confess the Truth,1 as ye shall find it. The words be these: Aut integra Sacramenta percipiant, aut ab integris arceantur. Quia divisio unius eiusdemque Mysterij sine grandi Sacrilegio non potest peruenire: Either let them receive the whole Sacraments, or else let them be driven from the whole. For the Division of one and the same Mystery (or Sacrament) cannot happen without great Sacrilege. He speaketh not of the division of One Christ, as you tell us, but of the division of One Mystery.
That ye surmise of Gelasius, is moste vntrue. He speaketh not one Woorde there, of the diuidinge of Christe, as you imagine: nor had he any cause so to speake. But he saithe in moste plaine wise, It is Sacrilege to doo the same thinge, that you doo, that is to saie, to diuide the Sacramente, & to Minister the One parte, as ye doo, without the other. Looke better on your Bookes: and Confesse the Truthe,1 as ye shal finde it. The woordes be these: Aut integra Sacramenta percipiant, aut ab integris arceantur. Quia diuisio vnius eiusdemque Mysterij sine grandi Sacrilegio non potest peruenire: Either lette them receiue the vvhole Sacramentes, or els let them be driuen from the vvhole. For the Diuision ofone and the same Mysterie (or Sacramente) cannot happen without greate Sacrilege. He speaketh not of the diuision of One Christe, as you tel vs, but of the diuision of One Mysterie.
