Then I ask the Papists ones again, whether the disciples drank wine or not? If they say, yea, then let them recant their error, that there was no wine remaining after the consecration. If they say nay, then they condemn the ⟨image 24⟩Apostles of disobedience to Christs commandment, which drank not wine as he commanded them. Or rather they reprove Christ as a Juggler, which commanded his Apostles to drink wine, and when they came to the drinking thereof, he him self had conveyed it away.
Then I aske the Papistes ones againe, whether the disciples dranke wyne or not? If they say, yea, then let them recant their errour, that there was no wyne remainyng after the cōsecracion. If they say nay, then they condempne the ⟨image 24⟩Apostles of disobedience to Christes commaundement, whiche dranke not wyne as he cōmaunded them. Or rather they reproue Christ as a Iuggler, which commaunded his Apostles to drynke wyne, and whan they came to the drynkyng therof, he him selfe had conuayed it away.
