What, thought M. Harding that none but children, and fools should read his book? For how loosely hang these parts together?

For touching Consecration, if he will precisely follow the words of the Evangelists,1 which wrote the story, Christ first took the Bread: and blessed it: and brake it: and gave it, and said, take ye: eat ye: and afterward, this being said, and done, he added the words of Consecration, This is my Body. Thus the Evangelists witness,2 contrary to M. Harding, that the receiving was first, and the Consecration afterward.
For touchinge Consecration, if he wil precisely folow the woordes of the Euangelistes,1 whiche wrote the storie, Christe first tooke the Breade: and blessed it: and brake it: and gaue it, and saide, take ye: eate ye: and afterwarde, this beinge saide, and doone, he added the woordes of Consecration, This is my Body. Thus the Euangelistes witnesse,2 contrarie to M. Hardinge, that the receiuinge was firste, and the Consecration afterwarde.
