Now let us see,1 what sense the Capernaites gathered hereof. Origen saith Accidit, ut simpliciores nescientes distinguere, quae sint, quae in Scripturis Divinis interiorihomini, quae exteriori depu•anda sint, vocabulorum similitudinibus falsi, ad ineptas quasdam fabulas, & figmenta inania see contulerint. It happeneth sometime, that simple men, being not able to put difference between those things in the Scriptures, that pertain to the inner man, and those things, that pertain to the utter man, are deceived by the likeness of words,2 and so fall into foolish fables, and vain fantasies. So saith S. Hierome, Cum Seniores putentur in Ecclesia, & Principes Sacerdotum, Simplicem sequendo Literam, occidunt Filium Dei. Where as they are taken for the Elders in the Church, and the Chief of the Priests, by following the Plain Letter, they kill the Son of God.

Harding would now teach the people to eat Christs Body.
