For briefly to touch Melchizedek, Malachi, & the institution of Christ, what weight can there appear in these reasons,1 Melchizedek brought forth bread and wine to banquet Abraham and his army being weary of the chase: Or, Malachi Prophesied that all the nations of the world should be turned unto God,2 & should offer unto him a pure Sacrifice:3 Or, Christ ordained his last Supper amongst his Disciples, & bad them do the same in his remembrance: ergo, there was private Mass in the Church. Who ever made any such arguments in any school? what, will M. Harding make folk believe, that Melchizedek, Malachi, or Christ, said private Mass? Or doth he think that these reasons must be taken, because he speaketh the word?
