Now to put this matter that Luther judged it a thing indifferent, whither one receive the Sacrament under one kind or both, more out of doubt, Philip Melanchthon, his scholar, and nearest of his Counsaile,1 writeth: Sicut edere suillam, aut abstinere a suilla, sic alterutra signi part uti medium esse. That as it is a thing indifferent to eat Swines flesh, or to forbear Swines flesh, so ⟨p. 109⟩it is also to use, which part of the sign a man listeth. By the word, Sign, he meaneth the Sacrament, liking better that strange word, then the accustomed word of the Church: least he might perhaps be thought of the brethren of his sect, in some what to join with the Catholics.
