This place is uttered by S. Ambrose, Primasius, Remigius, Haimo, Sedulius in like manner, and form of words, & hath been often alleged, & often answered. If it had pleased M. Harding to suffer S. Chrysostom to tell out his own tale, the place had been plain of it self.1 For thus he saith: Offerimus quidem, sed Recordationem facientes Mortis eius. Hoc Sacrificium Exemplar illius est. Hoc, quod nos facimus, in Commemorationem fit eius, quod factum est. Christus enim ait, Hoc facite ⟨p. 360⟩in meam commemorationem: Id ipsum semper offerimus: magis autem Sacrificij recordationem operamur. 2We offer in deed: but we do it in Remembrance of his Death. This sacrifice is an Exemplar, or Figure of that Sacrifice. The thing, that we do, is done in Remembrance of that thing, that was done before. For Christ sayeth, Do this in my Remembrance. We offer up the same thing: Nay, rather we work the Remembrance of a Sacrifice. By thus many sundry ways, Chrysostom opened his own meaning. Yet all this M. Harding thought best to dissemble closely, and to pass it in silence. Certainly, the Commemoration, or Figure, or Remembrance of Christs Death, maketh small proof for Corporal, or Fleshly Presence. True it is, that whole Christ is fully at every Communion, as Chrysostom saith: not, that he is there in Fleshly, or Bodily Presence, For so S. Chrysostom saith not: but for that by his Grace, & holy Sprite, he worketh wholly, and effectually in the hearts of the Faithful. S. Augustine, and other learned Fathers, have used the like manner of speech, and in the same seem fully to express Chrysostoms mind. S. Augustine writeth thus, Veritas una est, qua illustrantur animae Sanctae:
