Lombard made up his Books of Sentences in the fourth whereof he treats of the Eucharist and thinks that it is taught be some sayings of the Ancients Dist 10. That the substance of the Bread and Wine is changed into the Body and Bloud of Christ But soon after he adds Dist 11. If it be demanded what manner of change that is whether formal or substantial or of any other kind that I cannot resolve Therefore he did not yet hold Transubstantiation as a point of Faith Nay he doth not seem constant to himself in making it a probable opinion but rather to waver to say and unsay and to shelter his cause under the Fathers name rather than maintain it himself Of the accidents remaining without a subject and of the breaking into parts the body of Christ as Berengarius was bid to say by Pope Nicholas he reasons strangely but very poorly 16.
