The disciples of Patrick so surpassed in Christian pietie that in the age following there was nothing more holy nothing more learned then those Monks In confessing them to haue bene Monks vnaduised Camden and yet so holy so learned how lowdly dost thou condemne thy brethren and M.

The first positition which Maister Fitzsymon was vrged to proue was this That the Corporall presence of Christs bodie bloud in the Sacrament was neuer taught by the Fathers of the first fiue hundred yeares after Christ Now M. Fitzsymon knowing it impossible to be prooued by him or any in the world because it was hatched seuen hundreth yeares after that he altereth the state of the Question and saith That Christ is realy in the blessed Sacrament and thus starteth like a broken bowe from the manner of the presence which hee should prooue to the matter of the presence which was neuer in question betwixt Protestant and Papist And so in this scroule hudleth vp many Fathers speaking of the matter of the presence to the worthie prepared receiuers by faith But not one word of the Corporall presence Page 11. and to bee receiued by the mouth And most fondly and childishly would maintaine the opposition to bee betwixt Real and Figuratiue not betwixt Corporall and Spirituall Besides he sheweth there to prooue his presence a great deale of ignorance in a little Philosophie nay Fooloso-fie all which I praye you wish him to mend them and multis alijs with his pen least they come in print to his shame and vtter disgrace And I assure you and al that read this Maister Fitzsimon with all his words and wit or rather witlesse words hath not proued one syllable in question nor infringed any authority that I brought against him 7.

Our second position was this Rider That Gods Church had not their seruice in an vnknowne tongue but in such a language as euery particular Church vnderstood Maister Fitsymon knowing this to be true yet willing to say something for feare of scilence and censuring altereth the state of the question and saith that scripture seruice haue beene in vnvulgar tongues but hee should haue shewed that they were vnvulgare and vnknowne and not vnderstood of that vulgar where they were practised yea and that within the compasse of the first fiue hundred yeares after Christ his ascention then hee had said something but now omitting the circumstance he hath failed in the substance and so proued iust nothing And I pray you admonish him of his falsifying of Beda wresting him to prooue his Latine seruice wheras his words be these Hac in presenti quinque gentium linguis c.
