Where ye require your Heresy, for so much as it is so heinous a crime,1 by plain and strong are gumentes to be proved: it is not unknown how sufficiently and substantially that is performed already by men of excellent learning, as well of this age, as of times paste. Was not Berengarius, the first Author of your Sacramentary Heresy? by most plain and strong arguments confuted of Lanfrancus B. of Canterbury, and Guinundus B. of Aversa? Were not the Peterbrusians so, whose Heresy ye hold against the Blessed Sacrifice of the Mass, of the learned Abbot Petrus Cluniaccensis? Was not Wycliffe so of Thomas Walden, a learned man of England? hath not Luther and Oeclampadius been so confuted in our time, of that Holy and learned Father Bishop Fisher?
