Saint Paul because of sects and dissension among the Corinthians,1 wrote his epistle unto them: and in like case pertaining to my conscience, I do protest my whole hart in the blessed supper of the Lord, wherein I trust in God to bring nothing for me, but I shall be able with Gods holy word, to declare and manifest the same. And herein I take occasion to recite the saying of saint Paul in the said Epistle the xi. chapter. That which I delivered unto you, 2I received of the Lord. For the Lord Jesus, the same night in which he was betrayed, took bread, gave thanks and brake it, and said, take ye, eat ye, this is my body, which is broken for you.
