But how could the Manichees have been known (saith M. Harding) Onlesse the Catholic people among whom they received, had Communicate in One Kind? This question is out of course. I might better say, Nay how could the Manichees have been known, if they and the Catholics had received in One Kind both a like? For this is the token that Leo would have them known by: Sanguinē redemptionis nostrae haurire detrectant. They refuse to drink the Blood of our Redemption. By these words it is clear, that the Cup was offered orderly unto them, as unto others: but they refused it.

Thou seest, good Christian Reader, that M. Harding notwithstanding he be driven to leave his own fellows, to shift one Mystery for an other, to imagine new laws, and new Decrees, that were never heard of, to change him self into sundry forms, and to seek all manner holes to creep out at, yet at last hath found by the authority of Leo, whom he him self allegeth, that the Catholic people received the whole Communion under Both Kinds, according to Christs Institution: and that the patrons and founders of his half Communion, were old wicked Heretics, named the Manichees: that the same is the division of one whole entire Mystery: and therefore by the authority of Gelasius may well be called open Sacrilege.
