These things considered, it may soon appear, how faithfully, and how well to his purpose M. Harding allegeth this place of S. Augustine,1 Hoc est. quod dicimus &c. This is it, that we say, which we go about by all means to prove, that the Sacrifice of the Church is made of two things, and standeth of two things: of the Visible Kind (or Nature) of the Elements, and of the Invisible Flesh, and Blood of our Lord Jesus Christ: Of the Sacrament, the outward Holy Sign, and the thing of the Sacrament, which is the Body of Christ. Hereof M. Harding gathereth, that the Body of Christ lieth hidden under the Accidents. S. Augustine's words be true: But M. Harding with his guesses is much deceived. For of this word, Specie, he concludeth, that the Substance of Bread is gone, and nothing remaining, but only Accidents: and of this word, Inuisibili, he gathereth, that Christs Body is there Really enclosed. And so he maketh a Commentary far beside his text.

For of this woorde, Specie, he concludeth, that the Substance of Breade is gonne, and nothinge remaininge, but onely Accidentes: and of this woorde, Inuisibili, he geathereth, that Christes Bodie is there Really incloased. And so he maketh a Commentarie farre biside his texte.
