Again, if this bread and wine which the Priest receiveth in the Supper unto him self alone are the body and blood of Jesus Christ, as he taketh it, and would have men believe it, so that there remaineth no more substance of the bread and wine: then surely, this gift and present is not corporal, but everlasting even as Jesus Christ him self is. And therefore he doeth him great wrong, so to name it. If this then be not the body & blood of Jesus Christ, but only bread and wine, as in very deed it is: which way can he make it become a remedy for eternal life? which remedy is in none but in Jesus Christ alone. And besides, we are here further to note that, which the Priest sayeth, as if there were many, which banqueted with him at the very same table, & as if they had communicated of the self same Sacrament. Is not this a marvellous kind of mockery? He, verily thinketh, that this prayer was not made to be said in particular Masses, but when the people communicated together.
Againe, if this bread and wine which the Priest receaueth in the Supper vnto him self alone are the bodie and blood of Iesus Christ, as he taketh it, and woulde haue men beleeue it, so that there remaineth no more substance of the breade and wine: then surely, this gift and present is not corporall, but euerlasting euen as Iesus Christ him selfe is. And therefore he doeth him great wrong, so to name it. If this thē be not the bodie & bloud of Iesus Christ, but onely breade and wine, as in verie deed it is: which way can he make it becom a remedie for eternall life? which remedie is in none but in Iesus Christ alone. And besides, we ar here further to note that, which the Priest sayeth, as if there were manie, which banquetted with him at the verie same table, & as if they had communicated of the selfe same Sacrament. Is not this a maruelous kinde of mockerie? He, verily thinketh, that this prayer was not made to be sayed in particular Masses, but when the people communicated together.
