Now let us hear what S. Cyprian hath written to this purpose. Because his works be common, to be shorter, I will rehearse his words in English. If in the Sacrifice,* which is Christ, none but Christ is to be followed, soothly it behoveth us to obey, and do that, which Christ did, and commanded to be done. For if Jesus Christ our Lord and God, very he him self be the high Priest of God the Father, and him self first offered Sacrifice to God the Father, and commanded the same to be done in his Remembrance: Verily that Priest doth occupy the office of Christ truly, who doth by imitation the same thing, that Christ did. And then he offereth to God the Father in the Church a true, and a perfect Sacrifice, if he begin to offer right so as he seeth Christ him self to have offered. This far S. Cyprian. How can this Article be avouched in more plain words? (227)2 he saith that Christ offered him self to his Father in his Supper, and likewise commanded us to do the same▪.

And then he offereth to God the Father in the Churche a true, and a perfite Sacrifice, yf he beginne to offer right so as he seeth Christe him selfe to haue offered. This farre S. Cyprian. How can this Article be auouched in more plaine woordes? (227)
