Modern spelling is a reading aid: the words are the author’s, only the spelling is modernized. Original shows the page as printed, with the transcription marks.
The matter of Reservation is only pasted on, and utterly impertinent, and nothing belonging to this question. How be it, onlesse M. Harding had used the advantage of this Digression, he had passed over this whole Article without naming of any Doctor. I grant, The Sacrament in the Old time in some certain Churches was Reserved: how be it, not to be worshipped with godly honour, but only to be received in the holy Communion of the people.1 And Origen amongst other godly Fathers seemeth to mislike the same. For thus he writeth, Dominus Panem, quem Discipulis dabat, non distulit, nec seruari jussit in Crastinum: The Bread, that the Lord gave to his Disciples, he differed it not, nor willed it to be Reserved until the next day.
The mater of Reseruation is onely pasted on, and vtterly impertinente, and nothinge belonginge to this question. How be it, onlesse M. Hardinge had vsed the aduantage of this Digression, he had passed ouer this whole Article without naminge of any Doctour. I graunte, The Sacramente in the Olde time in some certaine Churches was Reserued: how be it, not to be woorshipped with godly honour, but onely to be receiued in the holy Communion of the people.1 And Origen emongst other godly Fathers séemeth to mislike the same. For thus he writeth, Dominus Panem, quem Discipulis dabat, non distulit, nec seruari iussit in Crastinum: The Breade, that the Lorde gaue to his Disciples, he differred it not, nor willed it to be Reserued vntil the nexte daie.

But touching the force of this Article, Cyrillus speaketh not one Word, neither of Corporal presence, nor of Forms, nor of Accidents, nor of Crumbs, nor of Quantities, nor of Qualities, nor of Putrefaction, or Corruption, nor of the coming of Christs Body, nor of the Abode, or Departure of the same, nor of any other the like M. Hardinges Mysteries. Therefore this holy Father neither reproveth our Doctrine, nor chargeth us, as M. Harding imagineth, with any madness. But if he were now alive, he would account him mad, and twice mad, that would so madly rake his words to so vain a purpose.
