What so ever, Hoc, pointeth in this saying of Christ after your judgement, M. Ivel, right meaning and plain Christian people,1 (who through God's grace have received the love of truth, and not the efficacy of illusion, to believe lying) believe verily, that in this Sacrament after consecration, i• the very Body of Christ, and that upon credit of his own words, Hoc est Corpus meum. They that appoint them selves to follow your Genevian doctrine in this point, deceived by that ye teach them (Hoc) to point the Bread, and by sundry other untruths, in stead of the very Body of Christ in the Sacrament rightly ministered verily present,2 shall receive nothing at your Communion, but a bare piece of Bread not worth appoint. As for your, some say, who will have, Hoc, to point Individuum Vagum, First learn you well, what they mean, and if their meaning be naught, who so e•er they be, handle them as you list: therewith shall we be offended never a deal. How this word, Hoc, in that saying of Christ is to be taken, and what it pointeth,* we k••we, who have more learnedly, more certainly, and more truly treated thereof, then Luther, Zuinglius, Calvin, Cranmer, Peter Martyr, or any their offspring.
VVhat so euer, Hoc, pointeth in this saieinge of Christe after your iudgement, M. Iuel, right meaninge and plaine Christian people,
