Here mayest thou, gentle Reader, easily see, that M. Harding, either had not that abundance of Store, whereof notwithstanding he hath made us so large a promise, or else had no great regard unto his choice. For Dionysius hath no token, or inkling of any such Sacrificing of the Son of God unto his Father. But clearly, & in most plain wise he showeth the difference, that is between the Sacrifice of the Cross,¹ and the Sacrifice of the Holy Communion. Thes• be his words, The Priest extolleth those things, that Christ wrought in his Flesh upon the Cross, for the Salvation of Mankind: and with Spiritual eyes, beholding the Spiritual understanding thereof, draweth near to the Figurative Sacrifice of the same. Here Dionysius calleth not the Ministration of the Holy Mysteries, the Sacrificing of Christ unto his Father, as M. Harding would force us to believe, but a Figurative Sacrifice,² that is, a Figure, or a Sign of that great Sacrifice. And Pachymeres the Paraphrast expoundeth the same words in this wise▪ [Greek or Hebrew]: He cometh to the Bread, and the Cup.
