It liketh M. Harding to call us wicked, and the enemies of the Sacrifice: and to say, we •angle of the Institution of Christ, and yet our selves break Christs Institution. I must here protest in the name of many: We are not enemies of the Sacrifice and Cross of Christ, but of the errors, abuses, and sacrilege of the Mass, which now are maintained to the open derogation of the Sacrifice and Cross of Christ.

As touching Christs Institution, forget not, good Christian Reader, that M. Harding confesseth, there are three things therein contained, which as he saith, Christ him self did, and by his commandment gave authority to his Church to do:1 the Consecration: the Oblation: and the Participation. Here he leaveth quite out the Annunciation of Christs Death, thinking perhaps, it is no matter essential of Christs Institution. Of these three (he saith) we have broken two: the Consecration, & Oblation: and so have only a bare Communion.
