True it is, The Ministration of the Holy Communion is oftentimes of the Old learned Fathers called a Sacrifice: not for that, they thought, the Priest had Authority, to Sacrifice the Son of God, but for that therein we offer up unto God, Thanks, and Praises for that great Sacrifice once made upon the Cross. So saith S. Augustine,1 In isto Sacrificio est gratiarum actio, & Commemoratio ⟨p. 563⟩Carnis Christi, 2quam pro nobis obtulit. In this Sacrifice is a Thanksgiving, and a Remembrance of the Flesh of Christ, which he hath offered for us. 3
