Thou art taken with the same nets thou diddest lay forth. For the mystical tokens after the sanctification go not away, out of their proper nature. For they abide in their §1former substance, shape and form and so far forth, that they may be seen and felt as they might before. But they be understanded that they be made, and are believed, and are worshipped, as being the same things, which he believed. This is my translation, who in the first sentence mean not to vary from the other translations touching the remain of substance, shape, form, or figure, I will use all these names. But in the second part where Theodoret speaketh of our belief what the tokens be made, and where he saith those tokens be worshipped, as being the same things, which he believed, thou mayst see reader how this author flieth the words (believe) and (worship) which the common translation in english doth plainly and truly express, how soever the translator swerved by colour of the word (tanquam) which there, after the greek, signifieth the truth and not the similitude only: like as saint Paul (Vocat ea quae non sunt, tanquam sint) which is to make to be indeed, not as though they were. And the greek is the §2[Greek or Hebrew], as it is here [Greek or Hebrew]. And it were an absurdity, to believe things otherwise then they be, as though they were, and very Idolatry to worship wittingly that is not, as though it were in deed. And therefore in these two words that they believed, that they be made and be worshipped, is declared by Theodoret, his faith of the very true real presence of Christs glorious flesh, whereunto the Deity is united. Which flesh, S. Augustine, consonantly to this Theodoret, said must be worshipped before it be received. The word worshipping put here in english is to express the word (Adorantur) put by Peter in latin, signifying adoring, being the verb in Greek of such signification, as is used to express godly worship with bowing of the knee. Now reader, what should I say by this author, that conveyeth these two words, of believing, and worshipping, and in stead of them, cometh in with reverence, taking, reputing, and esteeming, whereof ⟨p. 134⟩thou mayst esteem how this place of Theodoret pinched this author, who could not but see that adoring of the sacrament signifieth the presence of the body of Christ to be adored, which else were an absurdity:
Thou art taken with the same nettes thou diddest lay forth. For the misticall tokens after the sanctification go not away, out of their proper nature. For they abide in their §1former substance, shape and forme and so far forth, that they may be seene and felt as they might before. But they be vnderstanded that they be made, and are beleued, and are worshiped, as being the same thinges, which he beleued. This is my translation, who in the first sentence meane not to vary from the other translations touching the remayne of substance, shape, forme, or figure, I will vse all these names. But in the second parte where Theodoret speaketh of our beleefe what the tokens be made, and where he sayth those tokens be worshiped, as being the same thinges, which he beleued, thou mayst see reader how this author flieth the wordes (beleue) and (worship) which the common translation in english doth playnly and truly expresse, how soeuer the translator swarued by colour of the word (tanquam) which there, after the greeke, signifieth the truth and not the similitude onely: like as saynt Paule (Vocat ea quae non sunt, tanquam sint) which is to make to be indeed, not as though they were. And the greeke is the §2〈non-Latin alphabet〉, as it is here 〈non-Latin alphabet〉. And it were an absurditie, to beleue thinges otherwise then they be, as though they were, and very Idolatrie to worship wittingly that is not, as though it were in dede. And therfore in these two words that they beleued, that they be made and be worshiped, is declared by Theodoret, his fayth of the very true reall presence of Christs glorious flesh, wherunto the Deitie is vnited. Which fleshe, S. Augustine, consonantly to this Theodoret, sayd must be worshiped before it be receiued. The word worshiping put here in english is to expresse the word (Adorantur) put by Peter in latine, signifieng adoring, being the verbe in Greke of such signification, as is vsed to expresse godly worship with bowing of the knée. Now reader, what should I say by this author, that conueieth these two wordes, of beleuing, and worshiping, and in stede of them, cometh in with reuerence, taking, reputing, and esteming, wherof ⟨p. 134⟩thou mayst esteme how this place of Theodoret pinched this author, who could not but see that adoring of the sacramēt signifieth the presence of the body of Christ to be adored, which els were an absurditie:
