from_o the_o project_n of_o his_o enemy_n i_o have_v hear_v anthony_n carleton_n relate_v and_o he_o at_o that_o time_n live_v in_o the_o bishop_n house_n that_o the_o bishop_n chaplain_n at_o a_o

when_o and_o where_o they_o agree_v with_o the_o ancient_n one_o of_o they_o commend_v mr._n gilpins_n resolution_n and_o say_v it_o will_v be_v well_o with_o the_o church_n if_o all_o man_n will_v due_o respect_v the_o write_n of_o the_o father_n for_o then_o the_o upstart_n opinion_n of_o late_a writer_n will_v not_o so_o much_o disturb_v the_o church_n such_o as_o be_v of_o these_o of_o

the_o antiquity_n of_o the_o doctrine_n be_v to_o be_v reverence_v they_o hereupon_o subtle_o draw_v on_o gilpin_n into_o a_o disputation_n concern_v the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o altar_n propound_v therein_o two_o question_n the_o one_o concern_v the_o real_a presence_n the_o other_o concern_v transubstantiation_n touch_v the_o real_a presence_n gilpin_n confess_v that_o he_o have_v no_o very_o strong_a argument_n wherewith_o in_o his_o judgement_n he_o may_v oppose_v the_o real_a presence_n for_o i_o suppose_v say_v he_o that_o therein_o lie_v hide_v a_o great_a mystery_n such_o a_o one_o as_o be_v above_o my_o capacity_n rather_o to_o be_v adore_v then_o dispute_v upon_o they_o ask_v then_o what_o he_o think_v of_o transubstantiation_n he_o answer_v that_o there_o be_v no_o necessity_n why_o we_o shall_v believe_v those_o thing_n which_o have_v no_o solid_a foundation_n in_o the_o word_n of_o god_n do_v you_o not_o then_o believe_v say_v they_o as_o the_o church_n believe_v gilpin_n reply_v that_o the_o church_n have_v not_o always_o hold_v that_o as_o a_o article_n of_o faith_n i_o be_o say_v he_o of_o the_o catholic_n faith_n and_o the_o catholic_n faith_n change_v not_o but_o in_o this_o point_n i_o see_v alteration_n such_o as_o the_o catholic_a faith_n be_v not_o capable_a of_o they_o demand_v what_o alteration_n in_o faith_n he_o have_v observe_v touch_v the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o altar_n he_o reply_v i_o do_v not_o find_v that_o in_o the_o church_n in_o former_a age_n there_o be_v any_o thing_n speak_v or_o write_v about_o transubstantiation_n peter_n lombard_n be_v either_o the_o first_o or_o at_o least_o one_o of_o the_o first_o that_o bring_v in_o the_o alteration_n of_o the_o ancient_a faith_n and_o what_o do_v you_o yourselves_o think_v be_v the_o bread_n in_o transubstantiation_n convert_v into_o the_o flesh_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n they_o answer_v that_o they_o believe_v so_o absolute_o but_o say_v gilpin_n peter_n lombard_n who_o be_v the_o first_o man_n that_o make_v a_o alteration_n of_o the_o faith_n of_o our_o forefather_n in_o this_o point_n himself_o do_v not_o believe_v as_o you_o do_v for_o in_o his_o four_o book_n the_o eleven_o distinction_n f._n thus_o he_o have_v it_o there_o be_v no_o transubstantiation_n but_o of_o bread_n into_o flesh_n and_o wine_n into_o blood_n and_o if_o that_o be_v true_a then_o doubtless_o it_o follow_v consequent_o that_o in_o the_o transubstantiation_n of_o the_o bread_n there_o be_v no_o blood_n and_o now_o say_v he_o how_o will_v you_o reconcile_v these_o thing_n they_o stand_v at_o a_o stand_n as_o have_v nothing_o to_o answer_v because_o the_o word_n of_o lombard_n plain_o deny_v that_o in_o the_o transubstantiated_a bread_n can_v be_v any_o blood_n or_o in_o the_o wine_n his_o flesh_n who_o when_o gilpin_n have_v observe_v to_o stagger_v in_o this_o point_n take_v notice_n now_o say_v he_o of_o the_o immutabillity_n of_o the_o catholic_a faith_n we_o see_v the_o alteration_n of_o transubstantiation_n for_o when_o lombard_n have_v broach_v this_o doctrine_n that_o there_o be_v a_o kind_n of_o change_n he_o will_v have_v it_o none_o otherwise_o understand_v then_o thus_o that_o the_o bread_n only_o shall_v be_v change_v into_o flesh_n and_o the_o wine_n only_o into_o blood_n nor_o do_v man_n at_o that_o time_n dream_v of_o any_o other_o conversion_n in_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o altar_n until_o the_o fiction_n of_o concomitancy_n be_v broach_v by_o thomas_n aquinas_n he_o be_v a_o man_n that_o understand_v well_o the_o difficulty_n of_o this_o point_n and_o therefore_o he_o underprop_a it_o with_o concomitancy_n that_o forsooth_o by_o reason_n of_o concomitancy_n there_o be_v both_o flesh_n and_o blood_n in_o the_o transubstantiated_a bread_n but_o these_o be_v the_o invention_n of_o late_a man_n whereas_o the_o catholic_a religion_n abhor_v invent_v alteration_n in_o matter_n of_o faith_n while_o they_o be_v hold_v this_o disputation_n without_o speake_v aloud_o because_o they_o be_v close_o at_o the_o bishop_n back_n who_o at_o that_o time_n sit_v before_o the_o fire_n for_o it_o be_v in_o the_o

to_o the_o people_n now_o so_o it_o be_v that_o the_o archdeaconry_n of_o durham_n be_v annex_v to_o the_o rectory_n of_o essingdon_n thereupon_o mr._n gilpin_n for_o a_o time_n supply_v both_o
