And because he maketh him self so sure, and certain, that Christ at Emmaus ministered the Sacrament, it may please him to remember, that even the same Doctors, that he hath here alleged, and diverse others of late years, upon good consideration have said,1 it was not the Sacrament. S. Augustine saith, the breaking of Bread there was hospitality, and entertaining of strangers. His words be these: Quia hospitalitatem sectati sunt, eum, quem in expositione Scripturarum non agnoverunt, in panis fraction cognoscunt. Because they were given to hospitality, they knew him in the breaking of Bread, whom they knew not in the expounding of the Scriptures. Which thing S. Gregory uttereth in plainer manner.2 Mensam igitur ponunt, Panes, cibósque offerunt, & Deum, quem in scripturarum expositione non cognoverant, in panis fraction cognoscunt. They lay the table, and set forth Bread and Meat, and God, whom they knew not in the expounding of the Scriptures, they know in the breaking of bread. It were hard to say, the setting forth of Bread and Meat upon a table in an Hosterie, was the Ministration of the Sacrament. And to leave Bede,3 and others, that follow the same exposition, Dionysius one of late years, and therefore led away with many errors, according to the weakness of that time, saith thus: Accepit panem, & Benedixit: non tamen in suum Corpus conuertit, sicut in coena: sed ut moris est benedicere cibum. He took bread, and Blessed it: but he turned it not into his Body, as he did at his Supper: but only as the manner is to say grace, or to bliss the meat. 4So likewise saith Antonius Julianus: 5Accepit panem, benedixit, fregit, & porrigebat illis, sicut consueverat ante passionem. He took Bread, blessed it, brake it, and gave it unto them, as his manner was before his Passion.
And bicause he maketh him selfe so sure, and certaine, that Christe at Emaus ministred the Sacrament, it may please him to remember, that euen the same Doctours, that he hathe here alleged, and diuerse others of late yéeres, vpon good consideration haue saide,
