Before the bread (sayeth Chrisostome writing ad Cesarium Monachum) /1 be hallowed / we call it bread / but the grace of God sanctifying it by the means of the priest / it is delivered now from the name of bread / and esteemed worthy to be called Christs body / although the nature of bread abide in it still. These be Chrysostoms words / wherein I pray you what can be said or thought more plain against this error of Transubstantiation / then to declare that the bread abideth soe still.
Before the breade (saieth Chrisostome writinge ad Cesarium Monachum) /1 be hallowed / we call it breade / but the grace of Godde sanctifiynge it by the meanes of the prieste / it is deliuered nowe from the name of breade / and esteamed worthy to be called Christes bodye / althoughe the nature of breade abyde in it still. These bee Chrisostomes woordes / wherin I praye you what canne be said or thoughte more playne agaynste this erroure of Transubstantiation / then to declare that the bread abideth soe styll.
