6. The 6. was, if it be all one, to call a Ship, by the name of Castor and Pollux (Act. 28.11.) and to use a religious Ceremony, in Gods worship, taken from those Idols? No, saith the Rejoinder. Which is enough to show the vanity of the Defender in comparing the names of Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, unto Ceremonies taken from Popery.

8. The last question was, if it be not a kind of slander, to say, that the Church of Geneva imposeth a round Wafer-cake, like the Papists, to be used in the Lords Supper. And if it be not a wide leap, to bring in the practise of Geneva, for an instance of the Nonconformists practise, in England? The Rejoinder answereth 1. Yes, it is a slander to impute unto Geneva a round Wafer-cake, like the Papists: but addeth, that the Defender did not so. If he doeth not, what mean those words of his: albeit the Church of Geneva is not ignorant, what the round Wafer among the Papists did signify? Or what consequence made the Defender from Geneva's Wafer-cake, to Ceremonies abused unto Idolatry, if the Geneva Wafer-cake be not like unto the Papists?
