207. Question.
And how are these so joined together, that the one may be said of the other?
And howe are these so ioyned togeather, that the one may be sayde of the other?
Answer. To wit, this is the nature of things which be desperate or sundry, that when they altogether disagree in kind, the one can not properly be said of the other by no reason: because otherwise things should not be discerned from things by their specific form. Therefore if thou take this proposition properly, it shall be no less false, that bread is the body of Christ, then that a gourd is a man. Therefore it must needs be a figurative speech.
