the charge that was giuen to the Subdeacons for the reading of the Epistle before all men and to the Deacon for the reading of the Gospell for the instruction of the faithfull And in the Councell of Valēce holden in Spaine about the dayes of Symmach or Hormisd Ex lib. Con. it was decreed that the Gospell should be read after the Epistle that is to say after Paules Epistles Because there was a time when as the Masse began with the Epistle as elsewhere hath bin said and that they read nothing else in it but the Epistles of the Apostles and after thē the Gospelles And therefore it was ordained in the same Councell that according to the ancient Canons custome of the auncient Church the Gospell should be read after the rest of the lessons taken out of th'Epistles of the Apostles in the Masse of the Catechumeni before the offertorie of the faithfull to th' end that the faithful who taried lōg at the diuine seruice might be instructed as wel by reading of the said lessons as by the sermōs which the Bishops priests made on them but also the catechumeni penitētiaries all the rest likewise which as yet were enemies vnto the religion or not well instructed or excōmunicated who were put out whē they went to the Sermon nothing left vndone but the cōmunion offertory of the faithful for the releuing of the pore And the cause of this ordinance is there rendred It is said they because that we haue found by experiēce that many by this meane haue bin conuerted to the faith after they had once hard the doctrine Wherin we haue againe a very euidēt testimony of that which hath bene said as well of the preaching as also of the diuine seruice which in the auncient time of the Church was said in a lāguage that all men vnderstood For if it had bene deliuered in an vnknowen tong they which ar here spoken of had not bin conuerted neither had it so fallē out with thē as the holy Apostle him self saith it falleth out with the verie infidelles 1 Cor. 14. when they come into the Church heare vnderstand the doctrine that is there handled Their hart saith he is touched therwith they right well know that God is in them whome they heare so speake but contrariwise it had fallen out otherwise with them then as the same Apostle saith it fell out if they which spake had spoken in an vnknowen toung They would haue thought saith he that you had byn fooles mad men Moreouer because there were some then in those dayes which entermedled songs Psalmes betweene the reading of the Epistle and Gospell Ex lib. Con. it is said in the decrees of the 4. Councell of Tolede celebrated about the time of Honorius the first that it is contrarie to the auncient Cannons and auncient custome of the Church Wherefore it is forbidden vpon paine of excommunication that it be no more so done but that those prayers songs Psalmes shall be reserued to be said or song after the reading of the Gospel to the end the order be not marred but that the doctrine shall be preferred in his place without confusion Wherein appeareth that whatsoeuer is nowe in the Masse betweene the Epistle the Gospell to wit the Response and Graduell the Tracts Alleluya and prose haue bene added to the Masse as well against the ordinaunce of this Councell as also of the rest of the ancient Canōs by it alleadged But it is no maruell although that this ordinance hath not taken any great effect cōsidering that the custome of reading and declaring of the Epistle and Gospell in a tong which all men vnderstand hath bene vtterly abolished in the Masse wherefore there is no daunger in confounding both of order and doctrine whereas is neither order nor doctrine but altogether shame and confusion I haue of set purpose handled these matters in this place somewhat with the largest albeit I haue alreadie spoken some thing of them hertofore to the end that euery man may the better vnderstād what instruction there is in this part of the Masse called so by that name Let vs then first of all heare the Epistle which the Subdeacon is about to sing vs spreading abroade his fayre white hands according to that instruction which is giuen him thereof Of the reading of th'Epistle of the Masse that is celebrated on Corpus Christi day and of the matters worthie the consideration therein CHAPTER XII THe lesson of the Epistle of S.

nothing like to this For they haue according to the meaning of the Scriptures rightly saied that which we so often times haue heard in the Creede that the Father being verie God hath begotten the Sonne who is also very God of very God but when we speake of the virgine Mary we say that Iesus was borne of her and not begotten of her But we will ouer slippe this as a thing that may be more fitly handled Neuerthelesse there is yet an other point herein to be handled and that is this that when Saint Paule vseth this maner of speach sayeth God and our Lord Iesus Christ the name of God is referred commonly to the Father and the name of our Lord to Iesus Christ For although Iesus Christ the very Sonne of God is very God with the Father and the Father also Lord aswell as the Sonne yet for all that there is a difference in speaking of the vnitie of God and of the distinction of the three personnes in Trinitie And therefore according to the maner of Saint Paule his speach and the vnderstanding of his wordes we should here vnderstand that the virgine Marie should not be the mother of Iesus Christ alone but also of the Father and that she had begotten both the Father and the Sonne But if they would say that this is here set downe to meete with the heresie of the Nestorians thereby to declare that Iesus Christ is not man alone or that there are in him two personnes as he is in one and the selfe same person verie God and verie man it might be a great deale more properly spoken in other wordes and neuer abuse the wordes of the Apostle c This is one of the places Rat. lib. 4.
