That there was at any time any private Mass in the World 2. Or that there was any Communion Administred unto the People under one kind 3. Or that the People had their Common-Prayer in a strange Tongue that the People understood not 4. Or that the Bishop of Rome was then called an Universal Bishop or the head of the Universal Church 5. Or that the People were then taught to believe that Christs Body is Really Substantially Corporally Carnally or Naturally in the Sacrament 6. Or that his Body is or may be in a Thousand places or more at one time 7. Or that the Priest did then hold up the Sacrament over his Head 8. Or that the People did then fall down and worship it with Godly Honour 9. Or that the Sacrament was then or now ought to be hanged up under a Canopy 10. Or that in the Sacrament after the words of Consecration there remained only the Accidents and Shews without the Substance of Bread and Wine 11. Or that then the Priest divided the Sacrament into three parts and afterwards received himself all alone 12. Or that whosoever had said that the Sacrament is a Figure a Pledge a Token or Remembrance of Christs Body had therefore been judged for an Heretick 13. Or that it was lawful then to have Thirty Twenty Fifteen Ten or Five Masses said in one Day 14. Or that Images were then set up in the Churches to the intent that the People might Worship them 15.

Or to Communicate and receive the Sacrament for another as they do 19. Or to apply the virtue of Christs Death and Passion to any Man by the means of the Mass 20. Or that it was then thought a sound Doctrine to teach the People that Mass ex opere operato that is even for that it is said or done is able to remove any part of our Sin 21. Or that any Christian Man called the Sacrament of the Lord his God 22.

Or that a Mouse or any Worm or Beast may eat the Body of Christ for so some of the Papists have said and taught 24. Or that when Christ said Hoc est Corpus Meum the Word hoc pointed not the Bread but individuum vagum as some of them say 25. Or that the Accidents or Forms or Shews of the Bread and Wine be the Sacraments of Christ's Body and Blood and not rather the very Bread and Wine it self 26.
