Christ who gaue this Sacrament in both the Elementes vnto His Disciples representing then the persons sayeth hee of the whole faythfull communicants 2. because they did belieue in the Sacrament by the Element of the wine that there was signified a certayne peculiar grace of the blood of Christ to wit according to Christs wordes The remission of sinnes 3. because thereby was represented the full Passion of Christ which did consist in the oblation of His bodie and the shedding of His blood according to that of S. PAVLL As oft as yee shall eate of the bread and drinke of the Cup yee shall show the LORD'S death till His agayne comming 4. because ou● perfect feeding or now●ishment is thereby signified which is vsuallie not onelie by meat but by drinke also and 5. because lyke-wyse is signified thereby the perfect redemption of man in His bodie by the oblation of Christs bodie and in his soule the fountayne of lyfe which is sayde to bee in the blood by the shedding of Christs blood So that it is not without cause that one of their owne Popes Gelasius sayde That the divyding of one and the same Sacrament can not bee done without great sacriledge and therefore that hee commanded that eyther the whole Sacrament vnder both kyndes should bee taken or else that these superstitious persons who will not participate of the Cup hee debarred from the Sacrament altogether Lyke-wyse as they haue withdrawne the Cup from the people so they haue also taken away a significant Rite in giving to them ● wafer fo● bread without fraction which was acted and instituted by CHRIST to signifie the breaking of His Bodie and of the confessed N●veltie whereof let Cardinall Cajetane witnesse saying In the primitiue tymes that the Church did vse fraction of the bread when the Communion was given to the people even the verie Actes of the Apostles doe testifie in imitation of CHRIST as I belieue sayeth hee Who tooke bread and blessed it and brake it and so gaue it to His Disciples But it was afterward that the Church vsed severallie little Hosties which noway●s may bee broken CHAPTER XX The Noveltie of the MASSE where-in the Priest onelie reccaveth FIrst for the clearing of the Noveltie heereof having before spoken of the Noveltie of the name wee see that it hath no warrand in holie Scripture being contrary both to the institution of CHRIST and to that name which it getteth from the holie Apostle Of a Communion for in the institution wee see there was fraction of Bread which fraction was for distribution and this distribution was for common participation everie one with another as wee see I. COR. 10. 17. and as it was sayde of the Cup also Drinke yee all-of this or Divyde it amongst you Next it is agaynst the name of Communion which the Apostle giveth it for therefore is it called a Communion sayeth their Hugo Cardinalis because in the primitiue Church the people did communicate thereof daylie neyther properlie can it bee called a Communion sayeth their Cassander except moe than one participate The same is contrarie also to the alleadged Canons of the Apopostles and wrytings of the Fathers for thus sayeth their owne Cochleus Of olde all both Priests and people did communicate together as appeareth by the Canons of the Apostles and wrytings of the auncient Fathers In lyke-manner the same contradicteth their owne Canon of the Masse directlie their owne Cassander telling vs That therein the Priest prayeth not onelie for himselfe and his owne communicating but also for those who doe communicate with him saying Bee mercifull to as manie of vs as haue beene partakers of this Altar and chiefelie in his prayer after the Communion hee seemeth to pray onelie sayeth hee for those who haue beene communicants In lyke-manner Odo Camerace●sis wryting on the Canon of the Masse affirmeth That those solitarie Masses were not of olde sayeth hee in vse in the Church seeing that no Masse was without a collect that is some number who did offer and participate of the Sacrament together Their owne Durandus lyke-wyse telleth vs saying In the primitiue Church all who● were present at the celebration of the Masse did everie day communicate because all the Apostles did drinke of the Cup according to the LORD'S command Drink● yee all of this and their oblation was a great loafe sayeth hee which was sufficient for all and which custome the Grecians are sayde to keepe even vnto this day Which thing also their Tolossanus Belethus and sundrie others testifie And to adde the famous testimonie of Pope Innocent the third In the primitiue Church sayeth hee everie day those who were present at the celebration of the Masse were wont to communicate And all the best learned doe acknowledge sayeth their Cassander this to haue beene the ancient custome of the Romane Chu●ch in particular which custome how it hath ceassed is to bee marveled sayeth their Hofmeisterus and it is to bee indevoured that this good custome sayeth hee may bee restored to the Church CHAPTER XXI The Conclusion of this Treatise THus having demonstrate the Noveltie of Poperie and detected the same to bee the latter sowne Tares in the LORDS Field wee see that the Antiquitie whereof they so much bragge belongeth nowayes to them more than the living chylde to the false mother and if the Romane Church in these poyntes formerly discovered will needes still clayme Antiquitie at all it is manifest that no other can bee yeelded vnto her than that which was yeelded to Iudah and Israell by the Prophet Ezekiell vnder the names of Aholah and Aholibah to wit That shee is olde in her Adulteries the sometyme faythfull Citie as speaketh I saiah having become an Harlot and as says Lyrinensis in the same place now being a filthy Borthel of wicked and prophane erroures where a sacred store-house was before of chaste and vncorrupted trueth CHRIST'S sheepe-folde beeing p●sterd with disguysed Wolues and as it was objected to PAVLL concerning the Grecia●s these thinges beeing brought within the Temple which haue defyled the holie place As Elihu then sayde of himselfe That hee was but of yesterday in comparison of Iobs elder friends even so may Poperie justlie in lyke-manner confesse of her selfe that shee is but of yesterday in respect of that eternall Gospell spoken of in the Revelation and the Popish Church beeing the meretricious mother onelie of such bastard births lyke brats of Babell as shee may well father vpon the broodie braine of vaine mans invention puft vp as the Apostle speaketh by his fleshlie mynde but can never say with Iacob of such These are the children which the LORD my GOD hath given mee Let no man therefore marvell that wee haue come out of Babell as the LORD'S obedient people lest wee should partake of her sin●es and so receaue of her plagues nor thinke that wee haue forsaken Rome farder than shee hath forsaken the
