These authorities answer them self. Being every way granted, yet is M. Harding never the near. The whole matter we stand upon, is the open order, and usage in the Church. For proof hereof here are brought in Lunatics, and Mad men. It were a strange sight, to see a Church full of such people. The substance of his argument resteth only upon this guess, that the Bread cannot be poured into the sick mans mouth: 1and yet he may learn by the third Council of Carthage, and by the Abridgement of the Council of Hippo, that the Sacrament was then put into De•de Mens mouths. Neither can I see what necessity is in this reason: The man is frenetic, or lieth speechless, which was the suggestion of that Council: Ergo, he cannot receive the Sacramental Bread. If there be danger in the receiving, there is none more, then in the Cup.
These authorities answeare them selfe. Beinge euery way graunted, yet is M. Hardinge neuer the neare. The whole mater we stande vpon, is the open order, and vsage in the Churche. For proufe hereof here are brought in Lunatiques, and Madde men. It were a strange sight, to sée a Churche ful of suche people. The substance of his argument reasteth onely vpon this gheasse, that the Breade cannot be powred into the sicke mans mouthe: 1and yet he may learne by the thirde Councel of Carthage, and by the Abridgement of the Councel of Hippo, that the Sacrament was then put into De•de Mens mouthes. Neither can I sée what necessitie is in this reason: The man is frenetique, or lieth speechelesse, whiche was the suggestion of that Councel: Ergo, he cannot receiue the Sacramental Breade. If there be danger in the receiuinge, there is none more, then in the Cuppe.
