But the Prelates of this New Clergy (you say) have foully falsified both the words, & the sense of Fulgentius. And wherein, M. Harding? Forsooth in stead of these words, The Form of Man, &, The Form of God, for y• better understanding of the unlearned, they have used these words, as more commonly known, Godhead, and Manhood. If this be so fault, wherefore then is the Old Father,1 & Martyr Vigilius suffered thus to saie, Dei Filius secundum Humanitatem suam recessit à nobis; Secundum Divinitatem suam semper est nobiscum: The Son of God according to his Manhood is departed from us: according to his Godhead is ever with us? Or againe, Christus est ubique secundum Naturam Divinitatis suae: & loco continetur secundum Naturam Humanitatis suae: Christ is in all places according to the Nature of his Godhead: and is contained in One place, according to the Nature of his Manhood.
But the Prelates of this Newe Cleregie (you saie) haue fouly falsified both ye woordes, & the sense of Fulgentius. And wherin, M. Harding? Forsooth in stéede of these woordes, The Fourme of Man, &, The Fourme of God, for y• better vnderstanding of ye vnlearned, they haue vsed these woordes, as more commonly knowen, Godhed, and Manhed. If this be so faulte, wherefore then is the Olde Father,1 & Martyr Vigilius suffered thus to saie, Dei Filius secundum Humanitatem suam recessit à nobis; Secundum Diuinitatem suam semper est nobiscum: The Sonne of God according to his Manhed is departed from vs: according to his Godhed is euer with vs? Or againe, Christus est vbique secundum Naturam Diuinitatis suae: & loco continetur secundum Naturam Humanitatis suae: Christe is in al places according to the Nature of his Godhed: and is conteined in One place, according to the Nature of his Manhed.
