And, where as he saith, It hath been everywhere Universally observed, It is a great untruth: as, God willing, it shall appear. And therefore S. Augustine's […] serveth nothing to this purpose.

For first, as M. Harding is deceived in the manner of Breaking, so is he also deceived in the quantity of the Bread, imagining, it was a little thin round Cake, such as of late hath been used in the Church of Rome: Which (Durandus saith) must be round like a Penny: either because Judas betrayed Christ for some like kind of Coin: 1or, because it is written, Domini est Terra, & plenitudo eius, The Earthe is the Lords, and the fullness thereof. But in deed, it was a great Cake, so large, and so thick, that all the Congregation might receive of it. Durandus him self saith, In Primitiva Ecclesia offerebant Unum Magnum Panem, 2& omnibus sufficientem: 3quod adhuc Graeci seruare dicuntur. In the Primitive Church they offered One Great Cake, that was sufficient for all the people: which thing, they say, The Greeks do continue still. 4In Chrysostoms Liturgy, or, Communion, we see both the Form of the Bread, and also the order of Cutting, or Dividing it with a knife. Gentianus Heruetus in the Description thereof, saith: Est Panis Cra•sus, & Fermentatus, & Figura propemodum Sphaerica: It is a Thick Cake, and Leavened, and of Form in manner round. 5
