3. The Replier, affecting brevity, and finding no new matter of dispute about the allegations out of B. Jewel, and D. Whitaker, passeth them over, with this reason: in excusing of them, nothing is said by the Def. which hath not formerly been confuted.

3. The Replier, affecting brevitie, and finding no new matter of dispute about the allegations out of B. Iewel, and D. Whitaker, passeth them over, with this reason: in excusing of them, nothing is sayd by the Def. which hath not formerly been confuted.

Now the Rejoinder doeth not go about to show that any new thing is brought forth by the Def. about them, which had been to the purpose, but only catcheth up that word excusing, and repeating the accusation, of impertinent alleging them for the negative argument from Scriptures, in case of Ceremonies, which they do except, he taketh upon him to discover an undoubted close meaning of the word excuse: and thereupon accuseth not only the Repl. but I know not how many (they, them) of being scornful out of pride of spirit. ⟨p. 43⟩Who would have thought that one word (used according to the ordinary courteous fashion of those which in stead of plain denying, use the phrase, (excuse me) could have stirred up such a passion, or occasioned such an injurious surmise? But to excuse this, which I hope we may do without any offence, I will yield so much unto his importunity and challenge, as briefly to show, that neither B. Jewel, nor D. Whit. did except such Ceremonies as ours, when they speak of the Scriptures fullness. Ivel in the first article sect. 29. allegeth for the negative argument, Origen, concluding that in the Lords supper the bread is to be eaten, and not reserved unto the morrow, because that Christ did not command that reservation to the morrow. Now that this reservation is a ceremony, and a lawful one also in D. Morton his judgement, appeareth plainly ou of his Appeal, where (lib. 2. cap. 5. sect. 1.) he saith plainly, that we may grant a longer time of reservation then two or three days, with a reference unto the intent of participating of it by eating.
