Now, gentle Reader, as Leo saith, our bodies by Baptism are made Christs Flesh: as S. Augustine saith, we are made Christ him self: and as Gregory Nyssene saith, S. Steven was Tempered, and Mingled with the Grace of the Holy Ghost: even so, & in the same sense Chrysostom saith, We are made one Lump of dough with Christ, and Christ hath tempered, and mingled him self with us. These things ⟨p. 343⟩considered, the force of M. Hardinges reason must needs fail. Certainly Prsmasius saith,1 As the Breaking of this bread is the Partaking of the Body of Our Lord, even so the Bread of Idols is the Partaking of Devils. 2And addeth further, Si de eodem pane manducamus, quo Idololatrae, unum cum illis Corpus efficimur. If we eat of one Bread with Idolaters, we are made one Body with them.
