Gerson sayeth, that if Lay men should Communicate under both kinds as well as Priests, Dignitas sacerdotis, non esse• supra dignitatem Laicorum, The dignity of the Priest should not be above the dignity of Lay men. And Gabriel Biel extolleth the Priest above our Lady, & all Hallows, because he may Communicate under both kinds, and they cannot. ⟨p. 98⟩And so have they altered the Sacrament of equality,3 and unity: and made it a Sacrament of difference and dissension.
