Here, least M. Harding should take these words strictly, and grossly, as he doth the rest, and say, The New Testament in deed, & Really was covered in the Old, S. Augustine him self hath prevented him,1 and opened his own meaning in this wise, as it is said before: Occultabatur, id est, occultè Significabatur: It was Covered, that is to say, it was secretly Signified. By which exposition, being S. Augustine's, M. Harding might have learned likewise to expound these words, Caro operta forma Panis, id est, occultè Significata: The Flesh covered in the Form, or Substance of Bread: that is to say, Privily Signified in the Form, or Substance of Bread.

But M. Harding thought it best, to leave the matter, and to make his quarrel to the words, This word, Lieth, saith he, importeth a scoff, wherewith to bring his Catholic teaching into contempt. Verily this must needs be a marvellous tender, and a miserable Doctrine, that may no ways be touched without suspicion of a scoff. But why is he more angry with us, for uttering these words, Lieth hidden, then he is with his own Doctors uttering the same?
