And where as he saith further, that we have no manner Oblation in our Communion, he should not him self speak manifest untruth, having taken upon him, as he saith, to reform falsehood.1 For he knoweth we offer up unto God in the holy Communion our selves, our souls, our bodies, & alms for the poor: praises and thanks giving unto God the Father for our Redemption: and prayer from a contrite heart, which, as the old Catholic Fathers say, is the Sacrifice of the New Testament.2 To conclude, we offer up as much as Christ commanded us to offer. In deed we offer not up Christs Body to be a propitiatory Sacrifice for us unto his Father. For that Sacrifice is once wrought for all upon the Cross, and there is none other Sacrifice left to be offered for sin.3

In déede wée offer not vp Christes Body to be a propitiatorie Sacrifice for vs vnto his Father.
