As for Gelasius,1 his own words are sufficient to declare his faith. Thus he writeth against Nestorius, and E•tyches: Sacramenta, quae sumimus, Corporis, & Sanguinis Christi, divinae res •unt: propter quod & per eadem divinae efficimur consortes naturae. Et tamen esse non definit substantia vel natura Panis & Vini. The Sacraments of Christs Body and Blood that we receive, are a godly thing, and therefore by the same we are made partakers of the divine nature. yet there letteth not to be the substance or nature of Bread and Wine. This was Gelasius faith touching these portions of the Sacrament.

Now hath M. Harding devised an other Mystery of the wonderful conjunction of God and Man in Christ: whereof Gelasius spake not one word in this place, neither was it any thing to his purpose, to speak of it. Besides this, he imagineth Gelasius to give a law, that no man should divide that Mystery, whereas it never lay in the power of man to divide it. Neither had that been a division, but an utter dissolution of the Mystery.
