But if we abuse the people, speaking in such wise, as the Old Catholic Fathers spake so long before us, what then may we think of M. Harding, that cometh only with his own words, that wresteth, and falsifieth the words of the Holy Fathers, and by his strange Expositions maketh them not the Fathers words? Gelasius saith,1 In the Sacrament there remaineth the Substance of Bread, and Wine: That is to say, saith M. Harding, There remain the Accidents of Bread and Wine. Ireneus, and Justinus Martyr say,2 The Bread of the Sacrament, increaseth the Substance of our Flesh: Then meaning is, saith M. Harding, that the Accidents of the Bread increase the Substance of our Flesh. S. Ambrose saith,3 Post consecrationem Corpus Christi Significatur. After Consecration the Body of Christ is Signified: M. Harding saith, No, not so: But after Consecration the life to come is Signified. Now judge thou indifferently, good Reader, whether of us abuseth the simplicity of the people.
But if we abuse the people, speakinge in suche wise, as the Olde Catholique Fathers spake so longe before vs, what then maie we thinke of M. Hardinge, that commeth onely with his owne woordes, that wreasteth, and falsifieth the woordes of the Holy Fathers, and by his strange Expositions maketh them not the Fathers woords? Gelasius saith,1 In the Sacrament there remaineth the Substance of Breade, and Wine: That is to saie, saith M. Hardinge, There remaine the Accidentes of Breade and Wine. Ireneus, and Iustinus Martyr saie,2 The Breade of the Sacrament, increaseth the Substance of our Fleashe: Then meaninge is, saith M. Hardinge, that the Accidentes of the Breade increase the Substance of our Fleashe. S. Ambrose saith,3 Post consecrationem Corpus Christi Significatur. After Consecration the Bodie of Christe is Signified: M. Hardinge saith, No, not so: But after Consecration the life to come is Signified. Nowe iudge thou indifferently, good Reader, whether of vs abuseth the simplicitie of the people.
