And because you framed an argument for me, as you say, I will do as much for you, and thus I frame you another. If Christ offered are all external sacrifice of him self at his supper in bread & wine, then did Christ fully redeem mankind by a sacrifice made in bread and wine: But Christ redeemed not the world, by a sacrifice made in bread & wine, but by the sacrifice of his own body upon the cross: Ergo Christ offered no such sacrifice, in bread and wine at his supper. The parts are plain, & need no further proof. And where you say, that seeing Christ was prefigured by Aaron & Melchizedek, therefore he offered a sacrifice both in bloody manner, as Aaron did, and in unbloody, as did Melchizedek, I see you labour to put life into the dead carcass of your argument, but all in vain. For it cannot be showed either by scriptures, or else by any ancient fathers of the Church, that Christ offered any real sacrifice, but only in bloody manner.¹ Wherefore the Apostle so often repeateth the word (Once) excluding thereby all other manners of offering ⟨p. 74⟩this sacrifice, but one. By one oblation (saith the Apostle) hath he made perfect for ever those that are sanctified. Tell us what manner of oblation that was, bloody, or unbloody? bloody, I trust, you will confess: and therefore no unbloody was necessary, which neither could have holpen, seeing without shedding of blood there is not any remission of sins. ²Whereby also may appear that though the sacrifice of the mass be gainful to such Popish Priests, as M. R. & his companions are, yet in trueth being unbloody, it is utterly unfit, and unable to purchase remission of sins. Such merchandise is lightly to be valued, as it deserveth.

And because you framed an argument for me, as you say, I will doe as much for you, and thus I frame you another. If Christ offered are all externall sacrifice of him selfe at his supper in bread & wine, then did Christ fully redeeme mankinde by a sacrifice made in bread and wine: But Christ redeemed not the world, by a sacrifice made in bread & wine, but by the sacrifice of his owne bodie vpon the crosse: Ergo Christ offered no such sacrifice, in bread and wine at his supper. The partes are plaine, & need no further proofe. And where you say, that seeing Christ was prefigured by Aaron & Melchisedech, therefore he offered a sacrifice both in bloody maner, as Aaron did, and in vnbloodie, as did Melchisedech, I see you labour to put life into the dead carcase of your argument, but all in vaine. For it cannot be shewed either by scriptures, or els by anie ancient fathers of the Church, that Christ offered any reall sacrifice, but onelie in bloody maner.
