THE bishop of Lincoln said, that his protestation should be so taken; he required him to answer briefly, affirmatively or negatively, to the first article, and so recited the same again: and Mr. Latimer answered as followeth:
LATIMER. I do not deny, my lord, that in the sacrament by spirit and grace is the very body and blood of Christ, because that every man by receiving bodily that bread and wine, spiritually receiveth the body and blood of Christ, and is made partaker thereby of the merits of Christ's passion: but I deny that the body and blood of Christ is in such manner in the sacrament as you would have it.
LINCOLN. Then, Mr. Latimer, you answer affirmatively.
LATIMER. Yea, if you mean of that gross and carnal thing that you do take. THE notaries took his answer affirmatively.
