The former of these two places, may be easily discharged by that, is answered before to the words of S. Ambrose, in the 3. Division hereof. S. Augustine speaketh of the changing, and advancing of the Natures of Bread, and Wine, unto a Spiritual, and Divine use, and not of the abolishing of the same. As for Accidents, and Shows standing without Subject, and Substance, he saith nothing. True it is, The Bread, before the Consecration, was nothing else but Bare, and Common Bread: now it is advanced, and made a Sacrament of Christs Body, and Blood: not by Nature, but by Consecration, above Nature.

True it is, The Breade, before the Consecration, was nothinge els but Bare, and Common Breade: nowe it is aanced, and made a Sacrament of Christes Bodie, and Bloude: not by Nature, but by Consecration, aboue Nature. Chrysostome saithe,
