But whereby may it appear to M. Harding, that we have thus broken Christs Institution? Is it because we Communicate together with the people? or because we Minister the Sacrament under both kinds? or because we show forth the Death of Christ? or because we do, that Christ did, and commanded us to do?

Concerning Consecration, he doth great wrong to charge us with the breach thereof,1 before he him self and others of his side be better resolved wherein standeth Consecration. For Scotus, and Innocentius tertius, And certain others say, that this word Benedixit, He blessed, worketh Consecration. The common opinion is that it is wrought by these words, This is my Body: Some think ⟨p. 19⟩that Christ spake these words twice, first secretly to him self, and afterward openly, that the Apostles might understand him.2 Cardinal Bessarion Bishop of Tusculum,3 writeth thus, The Latin Church following Ambrose, Augustine, and Gregory, 4thinketh that Consecration standeth in these words, This is my Body: But the Greek Church thinketh the Consecration is not wrought by these words, but by the Prayer of the Priest, which followeth afterward: and that according to S. James, S. Chrysostom, and S. Basil. But these it appeareth, that they them self of that side, are not yet fully agreed upon their own Consecration.
