require_v of_o i_o a_o reply_n my_o reply_n be_v that_o the_o very_a first_o word_n of_o his_o book_n be_v a_o notorious_a untruth_n as_o all_o the_o nation_n can_v witness_v and_o but_o little_a truth_n in_o the_o rest_n save_v in_o two_o or_o three_o place_n where_o the_o poor_a infidel_n confess_v his_o ignorance_n of_o the_o true_a faith_n and_o some_o other_o thing_n that_o every_o schoolboy_n know_v a_o full_a reply_n i_o shall_v give_v he_o in_o four_o assertion_n 1._o that_o transubstantiation_n be_v never_o hear_v of_o or_o know_v in_o the_o church_n till_o above_o 1000_o year_n after_o christ_n neither_o name_n nor_o thing_n 2._o that_o it_o be_v never_o general_o receive_v by_o learned_a papist_n themselves_o till_o the_o council_n of_o trent_n 3._o that_o their_o ground_n and_o reason_n for_o it_o be_v too_o weak_a to_o support_v it_o and_o that_o monstrous_a weight_n of_o doubt_n and_o difficulty_n that_o depend_v upon_o it_o 4._o that_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n in_o this_o point_n be_v most_o agreeable_a to_o holy_a scripture_n and_o to_o all_o pure_a antiquity_n and_o may_v be_v call_v transmutation_n i._o to_o the_o first_o the_o friar_n say_v it_o be_v ever_o know_v and_o believe_v in_o the_o church_n quoad_fw-la rem_fw-la though_o not_o quoad_fw-la nomen_fw-la i._n e._n by_o certain_a equivalent_a term_n and_o for_o

construction_n of_o it_o he_o can_v st._n augustine_n be_v a_o famous_a bishop_n sit_v in_o several_a council_n and_o be_v precedent_n of_o some_o himself_o and_o must_v needs_o know_v the_o

de_fw-fr corp._n &_o sang._n christi_n say_v that_o according_a to_o their_o substance_n the_o bread_n and_o wine_n remain_v in_o the_o sacrament_n after_o consecration_n the_o bold_a friar_n call_v this_o a_o impertinency_n when_o the_o whole_a university_n of_o douai_n in_o their_o censure_n of_o it_o can_v neither_o deny_v the_o book_n nor_o answer_v it_o anno_fw-la 1057._o about_o this_o

confession_n that_o the_o very_a body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n in_o the_o sacrament_n be_v true_o and_o sensual_o break_v and_o bruise_v in_o piece_n with_o the_o tooth_n of_o the_o faithful_a and_o this_o confession_n the_o pope_n and_o council_n allow_v for_o catholic_n our_o bold_a friar_n say_v it_o be_v false_a i_o shall_v prove_v he_o a_o liar_n present_o for_o this_o confession_n

our_o bold_a friar_n catholic_n sense_n of_o the_o church_n for_o transubstantiation_n here_o be_v no_o appearance_n of_o it_o name_n or_o thing_n according_a to_o the_o friar_n own_o term_n anno_fw-la 1150._o about_o this_o time_n live_v peter_n lombard_n bishop_n of_o paris_n the_o likely_a man_n alive_a to_o know_v the_o catholic_a sense_n of_o the_o church_n because_o he_o make_v it_o his_o study_n and_o business_n to_o search_v the_o father_n and_o collect_v sentence_n out_o of_o their_o write_n and_o yet_o he_o say_v l._n 4._o do_v 11._o a_o si_fw-la autem_fw-la quaeritur_fw-la

to_o determine_v we_o acknowledge_v a_o conversion_n as_o well_o as_o they_o but_o if_o lombard_n in_o all_o his_o read_n can_v not_o learn_v what_o manner_n of_o conversion_n it_o be_v than_o it_o may_v be_v the_o same_o that_o we_o allow_v and_o the_o father_n understand_v no_o other_o ii_o my_o second_o assertion_n be_v that_o transubstantiation_n be_v never_o general_o receive_v by_o learned_a papist_n themselves_o till_o the_o council_n of_o trent_n for_o their_o most_o eminent_a schoolman_n some_o of_o they_o cardinal_n say_v that_o they_o receive_v it_o out_o of_o reverence_n to_o the_o church_n because_o she_o have_v so_o decree_v but_o otherwise_o in_o their_o own_o judgement_n rather_o approve_v that_o opinion_n which_o say_v that_o the_o substance_n of_o bread_n and_o wine_n remain_v in_o the_o sacrament_n as_o most_o agreeable_a to_o holy_a scripture_n and_o right_a reason_n and_o that_o transubstantiation_n be_v a_o rash_a opinion_n have_v no_o ground_n in_o scripture_n this_o be_v the_o more_o common_a opinion_n of_o the_o schoolman_n for_o above_o 200_o year_n the_o friar_n say_v i_o wrong_v the_o doctor_n and_o will_v prove_v it_o i_o know_v not_o when_o but_o let_v he_o unmask_v himself_o that_o i_o may_v see_v the_o right_a face_n and_o then_o i_o shall_v return_v he_o his_o own_o challenge_n and_o let_v he_o put_v it_o to_o trial_n when_o he_o dare_v iii_o my_o three_o assertion_n be_v that_o their_o own_o reason_n or_o ground_n for_o transubstantiation_n be_v too_o weak_a to_o support_v it_o and_o the_o monstrous_a weight_n of_o doubt_n and_o difficulty_n that_o depend_v upon_o it_o their_o general_a ground_n be_v the_o power_n and_o truth_n of_o christ_n god_n almighty_a who_o make_v all_o the_o world_n by_o his_o word_n hence_o they_o infer_v possibility_n verity_n necessity_n the_o answer_n be_v that_o a_o argument_n from_o the_o creation_n be_v but_o à _fw-la particulari_fw-la ad_fw-la particular_a and_o hold_v not_o nor_o a_o posse_fw-la ad_fw-la esse_fw-la from_o possibility_n to_o verity_n as_o to_o say_v it_o may_v be_v so_o therefore_o it_o be_v so_o or_o god_n can_v do_v this_o and_o that_o therefore_o he_o do_v it_o or_o it_o be_v do_v all_o such_o argument_n be_v inconsequent_a irrational_a and_o ridiculous_a a_o argument_n may_v well_o follow_v from_o the_o will_n of_o god_n to_o his_o power_n but_o not_o from_o his_o power_n to_o his_o will._n particular_a reason_n or_o ground_n they_o have_v 1._o the_o time_n when_o christ_n speak_v the_o word_n a_o time_n say_v they_o when_o all_o figure_n be_v end_v but_o that_o be_v apparent_o false_a for_o there_o be_v a_o plain_a figure_n in_o the_o cup_n which_o they_o neither_o deny_v nor_o can_v avoid_v 2._o some_o argue_v thus_o the_o bread_n which_o christ_n give_v in_o his_o last_o supper_n come_v down_o from_o heaven_n but_o baker_n bread_n come_v not_o down_o from_o heaven_n therefore_o he_o give_v not_o baker_n bread_n but_o the_o substance_n of_o his_o own_o body_n it_o be_v retort_v thus_o the_o substance_n of_o christ_n his_o natural_a body_n be_v take_v of_o the_o b._n virgin_n and_o come_v not_o down_o from_o heaven_n but_o the_o bread_n which_o christ_n give_v come_v down_o from_o heaven_n therefore_o the_o bread_n which_o christ_n give_v be_v not_o the_o substance_n of_o his_o natural_a body_n consider_v the_o weakness_n of_o their_o argument_n and_o inconvenience_n of_o the_o retort_n they_o fly_v to_o other_o ground_n as_o 3._o to_o ubiquity_n through_o personal_a union_n of_o both_o nature_n but_o this_o overthrow_v the_o ground_n of_o their_o own_o assertion_n for_o as_o they_o handle_v the_o matter_n their_o
