as bloud What can be more playnly spoken to declare that he ment that the very bloud of christ is made by the consecration of wyne ynto it and yet we receaue it not in forme of bloud but in a similitude shape of it the forme of wyne that is lyke to bloud in colour least we should abhorre to drinke it if it did appeare vnto oure eies very bloud Why redde ye not this my lord that ye had not erred in the alleaginge of this authorite of s. Ambrose yow folowed and trusted to much peter Martyrs allegation Peter Martyr falsely alledgeth theÌ„ doctour which reciteth almost al authours falsely and vntruely as I wil by goddes grace declare in my booke made against hym Saint Ambrose is against yow whom ye allege for yowe sayinge that the priest prayeth thus at masse lib. 4. cap. â— de sacrameÌ„tis Make vnto vs this oblation to be acceptable which is Ã figure of the bodie bloud of christ For he calleth here the masse Ã sacrifice and sayeth that the priest maketh therin sacrifice to god for hym self and other which ye denye vtterly Againe he saieth not that it is only Ã figure as ye defende it to be but that it is Ã figure of christes bodie bloud in that respecte that they were crucified for as much as christes death is in the sacrament represented and figured Ye do nowe corrupt falsely Ambrofius in 1. cor 11. alleage S. Ambrose and make of his true sainge Ã false sentence For this ye make hym say In eatinge and drinkynge the bread and wyne we do signifie the fleshe and bloud that were offered for vs where in dede these are his wordes vpon this texte of S. Paul ye shal shewe furth our lordes death vntil he come For because ye are sayeth he made free by oure lordes death we remembringe that thinge in eatinge and drinkinge fleash and bloud which were offered for vs do signifie c. Loo my lord S. Ambrose sayth we do eate and drinke fleash and bloud and ye make hym say that we do eate and drinke bread and wyne Are ye not ashamed so manifestly to lye vpon the authours Also saint Ambrose sayeth wel thoughe ye il vnderstand his wordes that we do receaue the mystical cup of bloud for tuition of our bodie and soul in Ã signification or Ã figure not of christes bodie as ye would make vs beleue but of that that the newe testament was confirmed by christes bloud and that bloud is Ã wytnes of christes benifite which came by his bloud sheadynge vnto vs. Therfore ye do il conclude of these authorites of the doctours that christes bodie and Fol. 64. bloud are not really in the holy sacrament but that bread and wyne are only signes figures similitudes and representations of them as ye do lyke wyse Augustinus Epist 23. il vnderstand saint Austen wrytinge to Bonifacius For he ment that christ was not dailye offered in the masse by death and sufferinge of his passion againe for so he was neuer but ones offered and yet he is daily offered in the sacrament for the people atmasse and his passion represented vnto vs theryn For we do vse to say that christ suffered his passion vpon this day good fryday and that day he arose agayne when the daies of his passion and resurrection are passed manye hundred yeres before and Ã memorie or Ã representation only of those two thinges is celebrated and made vpon such daies And so is the sacrament Ã signe and Ã similitude of christes body in sufferinge death and passion and is called in Ã maner his body as the outwarde formes and kindes of bread and wyne are sacramentes and signes of christes bodie and bloud beynge some tyme called christes bodie and bloud as they may ryght wel in Ã certen maner of speakinge as Saint Austen wytnesseth there because that some tyme thinges signified are called by the names of their signes and contrarily also This we see plainlye ynoughe that saint Austen is not vpon my lordes syde but against hym vtterly when he sayeth that christ is dailye offered in sacrifice at masse for the people which my lord denyeth vtterly and yet sayeth that saint Austen is of his The bysshop fo 62. pag 2. Contra adamantum cap. 12. mynde and beliefe therin To be short when Saint Austen or any other docter affirmeth that the sacrament is a figure or Ã signe they neuer saye that bakers bread or material bread and wyne of the grape are only in the sacrament as signes of christes body and The signe of christes body how hit is to be vnderstand bloud only absent but they meane as I sayed Ã fore that the outward formes and kyndes of bread and wyne are signes of them there presently couered vnder neath them And also that the sacrament is Ã signe of christes mystical bodie the church and of his passion Ã representation and figure As for Theodoretus whom he alleageth agayne is anusweared before sufficiently Your fyfte note my lord fo 66. pa. â— which ye gather out of Theodoretus that nothinge ought to be affirmed for Ã certen trueth in religion which is not spoken of in holy scripture is Ã very damnable note and the mother of many abamynable heresies as I haue declared largely in my booke of traditions and also briefely before in this boke And to touche the same matter vnwritteÌ„ verytees Ã lytel agayne is the baptisme of children sette out in scripture Confessed not origen and saynt AusteÌ„ the cleane contrarye Sayeth not Saint Austen that it is Ã tradition vnwritten Origenes lib. 6. in Romanos ca. 6 in scripture that baptisme ministred of an heretike or Ã schismatike is sufficient and good In the scripture is no mention made that the father of heauen is vngotten that there are three persons that christ is consuhstantialis patri that oure lady was Ã continual vyrgen that the souday ought to be kept holy and many such other certen truethes in christes religion are not written in scripture What then my lord Is he arrogant and presumptuous that affirmeth them for certen verites in religion Yow saye vntruely that papistes do make and vnmake articles of our faith at their pleasure for they neuer made article of the fayth nor vnmade but heretikes hath so done many tymes Vnto this lye ye adde twoo moo This lye is often repeted of hym one that we do saye that christes bodie is naturally and sensibly in the bread when we say bread is not there and that christes bodie is there vnnaturally against nature and vnsensiblye Fol. 71 The second lye is that priestes make of Christ Ã newe sacrifice for synne for it is no newe sacrifice but the selfe same yn the thinge offered Homi. 2. in 2 ad Timot. that as Saynt Chrysostom sayeth Christ ones offered hymselfe vpon the crosse and whyche he offered at his

spent in settinge furth of this your booke seyng this disciple of S. peter so openly speaketh both of the presence of christes body bloud in the holy sacrament and also of the sacrifice of the masse Why also do ye destroy aulters which were vsed in the apostles tyme as it appeareth here for masses to be sayed vpon What I The masse is Ã sacrifice propitiaetori for synne pray you my lord is it to offre christes body and bloud at masse to purchase therby euerlasting life yf it be not the masse to be Ã sacrifice to pacifie gods wrath for synne and to obteyne his mercy Why then do ye denye this and say that such doctrine is blasphemous and iniurious vnto christ and his sacrifice Wold ye that we shold beleue your sayng before al these al other old godly fathers doctrine Heare yet ones agayne this holy martyr S. peters scholer which saieth thus That same thing that the Iewes did The masse is Ã sacrifice for synne kil throughe enuye we set furth vpon the aulter for our saluation knowyng that by this remedy alone the life that euer lasteth shal be geuen to vs and death dreauen away from vs for our lord hym selfe bade vs do this in remeÌ„braunce Lucae 22 of hym Loo my lord this blessed martyr S. peters disciple affirmeth that priestes do offre for our saluation to get heauen and to auoyed hel the selfe same thinge vpon an aulter that the ieues did put vnto death Wyth what face do ye theÌ„ denye that christes bodye is yn the sacrament but bread only Ã signe of it and say also that the masse is no sacrifice at al for synne This father sayeth that christ commaunded sacrifice to be made of his body and bloud for our saluation and are ye not my lord ashamed then to say that the sacrifice of the masse was deuysed by the bysshop of Rome against christes sacrifice which he made vpon the crosse Who denyeth my lord but that christes sacrifice made vpon the crosse is sufficient for the remission of the synnes of the whole world But what therof Wil ye of that gather either that it did euen when it was made first vpon the crosse take away cleane in effect and actually al Note mens synnes or els that it neadeth none application to take effecte in vs for our saluation Why theÌ„ shold there be any hel or any man be damned For was not that his sacrifice Ã sufficient redemption 1. Ioan. 2 for the synnes of al the whole world Agayne yf the sacrifice of christ made vpon the crosse neade no application why shold we neade to beleue in hym to hope to feare god to do penaunce for our synnes to praye to fast to gyue almes to loue god to keepe his commaundementes or to do any good May we not then saye as 1. Cor. 15 many haue done and yet do let vs eate drinke and make good chere for christ hath done al enoughe for vs He wil not lose one of vs that he hath bought so dearly This many men do saye that are your scholers my lord they may gather no lesse out of many places of this your boke althoughe ye neuer ment any such thinge Wherfore seyyng christ did not actually nor in effecte take away by his death the synnes of men but onely as Ã meriter and deseruer of grace and remission of our synnes he hath prepared Ã remedie to heale cure them that receaue do and keepe al such thinges which he hath appoynted to be meanes to applye that his benefite vertu streÌ„gth of his passion vnto them Why then may not the sacrifice of the masse be such Ã meane emouÌ„g many other mo for that application of christes merite vnto vs wythout any derogation of the perfection sufficientcye of christes sacrifice made by his death Sayed Heb. 5. not S Paul that christ was made the cause of saluation not of al men absolutely but to them that obeyed hym Doth not he then plainly declare that this obedience of man is necessarie for the application of christes perfect sacrifice and yet that proueth no imperfectioÌ„ at al in that sacrifice Sayed not Coloss 1. also S paul that christ had pacyfied his fathers wrath recoÌ„ciled vs vnto hym by his death and yet not wythstanding that that his sacrifice was ful perfect and sufficient he sayed that he did supplye those thinges whych lacked in christes passions when he suffered afflictions and persecution in his bodie for the people What meÌ„t he my lord els but that the passions afflictions and peynes which he suffered for the settyng furth and defendyng of the gospel were meanes to applie christes perfect and sufficient sacrifice vnto the people for the remission of their synnes and their saluation Why then sayed ye that they which defende the sacrifice of the masse as an instrument and Ã meane to applye christes passion vnto vs for our saluation do it to supplye the imperfection of christes sacrifice and to do that for vs which christ either for lacke of charite did not for vs or els for lacke of pouer could not do Were ye not playnely disceaued my lord when ye wrote this against the sacrifice of the masse RecaÌ„te then for shame recaÌ„te this noughty doctrine teach it no more Now to the confutatioÌ„ of your first boke â§ The Confutation of the first booke What so euer can not be grounded The bysshop fo 1. pa. 2 vpon the scripture touchyng oure fayth is mans deuyse chaungeable vncertayne What saye ye then my lord vnto The Confutation the baptisme of children For of it S.

Thynke ye that the baptisme of children is grounded vpon scripture when S. Austen sayeth yt is only Ã tradition of the apostles Are ye better learned then he and origen that ye can fynde scripture for it where they could finde none Also by what scripture is the baptisme mynistred of an heretike or Ã schismatike approued to be good and auayleable Sayeth not also S.

CypriaÌ„ De ablutione pedum writeth after this sort That thing is as firme or as ratified that the apostles haue taught by the inspiration of the holy goost as that which christ hymself taught and commaunded to be done for his remembraunce Also saiÌ„t Luc. 22.
