S. Augustine's words are plain enough: how so ever it like you to shadow them with your Glosses. Thus he saithe, Quod vidistis, Panis est, & Calix: quod vobis etiam Oculi vestri renuntiant: The thing, that you saw, is the Bread, and the Cup: which thing your eyes do report unto you. Where also may be noted, as by the way, that S. Augustine, contrary to your Doctrine, M. Harding, referreth the Judgment hereof to the report, and trial of the senses. And again he saith of him self in the like case, Vereor, ne ipsis sensibus nostris facere videamur iniuriam, 1quando id loquendo suademus, ubi omnes Vires, officiumque Sermonis facillimè superat evidentia Veritatis: I fear me, we should do wrong unto our Senses, if we would go about to prove that thing by speaking, wherein the evidence of the Truth it self passeth all duty, and power of Speech.
S. Augustines woordes are plaine yenough: howe so euer it like you to shaowe them with your Gloses. Thus he saithe, Quod vidistis, Panis est, & Calix: quod vobis etiam Oculi vestri renuntiant: The thinge, that you sawe, is the Breade, and the Cuppe: whiche thinge your eies doo reporte vnto you. Where also maie be noted, as by the waie, that S. Augustine, contrarie to your Doctrine, M. Hardinge, referreth the Iudgmente hereof to the reporte, and trial of the senses. And againe he saithe of him selfe in the like case, Vereor, ne ipsis sensibus nostris facere videamur iniuriam, 1quando id loquendo suademus, vbi omnes Vires, officiumque Sermonis facillimè superat euidentia Veritatis: I feare me, wee shoulde doo wronge vnto our Senses, if wee would goe about to proue that thinge by speakinge, wherein the euidence of the Truthe it selfe passeth al dewtie, and power of Speache.
