By these words of Theodorete, M. Harding thinketh him self able, to prove both Real Presence, and also Adoration of the Sacrament: and I doubt not, but the discrete Reader shall soon perceive, he hath proved as well the one, as the other. Touching Real Presence Theodoretus speaketh nothing, no not one word. His manner of speech seemeth rather to incline to Transubstantiation: whereunto notwithstanding Theodoretus is an enemy, and thinketh it a great folly proceeding of ignorance, as it shall appear. And, where as Theodoretus imagineth two men to reason together by way of a Dialogue, a Catholic man, and an Heretic, M. Harding is fain for defence of his Doctrine, to take part with the Heretic, and to use his arguments, as if they were Catholic. For thus the Heretic there saith, even as M. Harding now saith, Symbola Dominici Corporis, 1& Sanguinis, alia quidem sunt ante Inuocationem Sacerdotis: Sed post Inuocationem mutantur, & alia •iunt. The Sacraments, or Signs of Christs Body, and Blood, are one thing before the Blessing of the Priest: But after the Blessing they are changed, and made other things: And he speaketh of the change of Substance, even as M. Harding doth. The Catholic man maketh answer: •igna Mystica po•t Sanctificationē non recedunt a Natura sua. Manent enim in priori Substantia, & Figura, & Forma. Nay marry. The Mystical Signs after the Blessing (of the priest) depart not from their own Nature. For they remain in their former Substance, and Figure, and Form. 2He saith further, yet the same Bread, and Wine remaining as they were before, are understanded, and Believed, and Adored, as the things, that they are Believed.
