Yet once again M. Harding would make the world believe, that the ignorant people understandeth the Latin tongue, although not perfectly: and that they may in general, give their consent unto, what so ever the Priest saith, although they know not one word, what he sayeth. And so between S. Paul, and M. Harding there appeareth a plain contrariety. For S. Paul saith, The unlearned cannot say Amen, to thy prayer, because he knoweth not, what thou sayest. Yes (saith M. Harding) although he know not, what thou sayest, yet may he nevertheless say, Amen: But hereto he layeth his correction: I grant (saith he) they cannot say Amen to the blessing, and thanks giving of the Priest, So well, as if they understood the Latin tongue.
Yet once againe M. Hardinge woulde make the worlde beléeue, that the ignorant people vnderstandeth ye Latine tongue, although not perfitely: and that they may in general, geue their consent vnto, what so euer the Priest saithe, although they know not one woorde, what he saieth. And so betwéene S. Paule, and M. Hardinge there appeareth a plaine contrarietie. For S. Paule saith, The vnlearned cannot say Amen, to thy praier, bicause he knoweth not, what thou saiest. Yes (saithe M. Hardinge) although he know not, what thou saiest, yet may he neuerthelesse say, Amen: But hereto he laieth his correction: I graunt (saith he) they cannot say Amen to the blissing, and thankes geuinge of the Priest, So vvel, as if they vnderstoode the Latine tongue.
