AT which words the lord chancellor was wroth, and said, that they had given him respite to deliberate till this day, whether he would recant his errors of the blessed sacrament, which yesterday, said he, before us you uttered.
Brad. My lord, you gave me no time for any such deliberation, neither did I speak any thing of the sacrament which you do disallow. For when I had declared a presence of Christ to be there to faith, you went from that matter, to clear yourself that you were not cruel, and so went to dinner.
Lord Chan. What? I perceive we must begin all again with thee. Did I not yesterday tell thee plainly, that thou madest a conscience where none should be? Did I not make it plain, that the oath against the bishop of Rome was an unlawful oath?
Brad. No, indeed my lord: you said so, but you have not proved it yet, nor ever can do.
