But than doeth that saying make against these men, which we read in the words of the Lord: This is my body, which is delivered for you, and this is my blood, which shall be shed for you, by which words he plainly ⟨p. xxviii⟩•eweth and declareth himself to mean the body which he had than at that present, and the blood, which he used at that hour. For Christ had not these things glorified and unpassible till after his resurrection. But let us suppose that the matter were as they hold. Than do we thus argue. The state and properties of a passible body, and of a glorified body, be contrary the one to the other• so that they can not in one respect be in one body together and at one time: wherefore it followeth, if ye will have both the said contraries of passible and glorified to be in Christs body both at one self time: that ye make Christs body a double body.
But than dooeth that saying make againste these menne, whiche we reade in the woordes of the Lord: This is my body, which is deliuered for you, and this is my bloude, whiche shall bee shed for you, by whiche woordes he playnlye ⟨p. xxviii⟩•eweth and declareth hymselfe to mene the bodye whiche he had than at that presente, and the bloude, which he vsed at that honre. For Christe had not these thynges glorifyed and vnpassible till after his resurreccion. But leat vs suppose that the matier wer as thei holde. Than dooe we thus argue. The state and properties of a passible bodye, and of a glorifyed bodye, be contrary the one to the other• so that they can not in one respecte bee in one bodye together and at one tyme: wherefore it foloweth, yf ye wyll haue bothe the sayed contraries of passible and glorifyed to bee in Christes bodye bothe at one selfe tyme: that ye make Christes body a double bodye.
