against_o he_o that_o deny_v the_o conversion_n of_o the_o whole_a substance_n of_o the_o element_n into_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n the_o species_n of_o bread_n and_o wine_n only_o

the_o church_n of_o rome_n who_o have_v have_v a_o taste_n of_o the_o new_a philosophy_n reject_v any_o real_a accident_n and_o yet_o declare_v transubstantiation_n to_o be_v a_o matter_n of_o faith_n and_o go_v about_o to_o explain_v the_o notion_n of_o it_o in_o another_o manner_n among_o these_o one_o emanuel_n maignan_n a_o professor_n of_o divinity_n 5._o at_o tholouse_n have_v at_o large_a undertake_v this_o matter_n the_o method_n he_o take_v be_v this_o 1._o he_o grant_v that_o nothing_o remain_v of_o the_o bread_n after_o consecration_n but_o that_o whereby_o it_o be_v a_o object_n of_o sense_n because_o that_o which_o be_v real_o the_o be_v of_o one_o thing_n can_v be_v the_o be_v of_o another_o and_o he_o confess_v that_o the_o modus_fw-la as_o to_z the_o not_o be_v of_o the_o substance_n after_o consecration_n be_v determine_v by_o the_o council_n of_o constance_n and_o trent_n 2._o he_o assert_n that_o real_a accident_n suppose_v they_o separable_a from_o the_o substance_n be_v not_o that_o whereby_o the_o element_n be_v make_v the_o object_n of_o sense_n because_o they_o do_v not_o make_v the_o conjunction_n between_o the_o object_n and_o the_o faculty_n 3._o since_o he_o deny_v that_o accident_n have_v any_o real_a be_v distinct_a from_o the_o substance_n they_o be_v in_o he_o grant_v that_o it_o be_v as_o much_o a_o matter_n of_o faith_n that_o there_o be_v no_o real_a accident_n after_o consecration_n as_o that_o there_o be_v no_o real_a substance_n and_o he_o bring_v the_o authority_n of_o the_o council_n of_o lateran_n florence_n and_o trent_n to_o prove_v it_o 4._o as_o the_o substance_n do_v by_o divine_a concourse_n so_o act_n upon_o the_o sense_n before_o as_o to_o make_v it_o be_v a_o object_n of_o sense_n so_o after_o consecration_n god_n by_o his_o immediate_a act_n make_v the_o same_o appearance_n although_o the_o substance_n be_v go_v and_o this_o he_o say_v be_v the_o effect_n of_o this_o miraculous_a conversion_n which_o be_v conceal_v from_o our_o sense_n by_o god_n immediate_a cause_v the_o very_a same_o appearance_n which_o come_v before_o from_o the_o substance_n which_o appearance_n he_o say_v be_v the_o species_n mention_v by_o the_o council_n of_o trent_n and_o other_o elder_a council_n and_o father_n against_o this_o new_a hypothesis_n a_o famous_a jesuit_n theophilus_n raynaudus_n oppose_v himself_o with_o great_a vehemency_n and_o urge_v these_o argument_n against_o it_o 1._o that_o it_o overthrow_v the_o very_a nature_n of_o a_o sacrament_n leave_v no_o external_a visible_a sign_n but_o a_o perpetual_a illusion_n of_o the_o sense_n in_o such_o a_o manner_n that_o the_o error_n of_o one_o can_v be_v correct_v by_o another_o 2._o that_o it_o overthrow_v the_o design_n of_o the_o sacrament_n which_o be_v to_o be_v true_a and_o proper_a food_n my_o flesh_n be_v meat_n indeed_o etc._n etc._n john_n 6._o which_o he_o say_v be_v to_o be_v understand_v of_o the_o sacrament_n as_o well_o as_o of_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n and_o therefore_o can_v agree_v with_o a_o imaginary_a appearance_n 3._o it_o be_v not_o consistent_a with_o the_o accident_n which_o befall_v the_o sacramental_a species_n as_o to_o be_v tread_v under_o foot_n to_o be_v cast_v into_o indecent_a place_n to_o be_v devour_v by_o brute_n to_o be_v putrify_v etc._n etc._n if_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n withdraw_v there_o must_v be_v something_o beyond_o mere_a appearance_n 4._o he_o make_v this_o doctrine_n to_o be_v heretical_a because_o the_o council_n of_o constance_n condemn_v it_o as_o a_o heretical_a proposition_n to_o affirm_v that_o in_o the_o eucharist_n accident_n do_v not_o remain_v without_o their_o subject_n and_o because_o the_o council_n of_o trent_n use_v the_o word_n species_n in_o the_o sense_n then_o general_o receive_v and_o so_o it_o signify_v the_o same_o with_o accident_n which_o say_v he_o far_o appear_v because_o the_o council_n speak_v of_o the_o species_n remain_v but_o if_o there_o be_v no_o real_a accident_n the_o species_n do_v not_o remain_v in_o the_o object_n but_o a_o new_a appearance_n be_v produce_v and_o it_o seem_v most_o reasonable_a to_o interpret_v the_o language_n of_o the_o council_n according_a to_o the_o general_a sense_n wherein_o the_o word_n be_v understand_v at_o that_o time_n vii_o what_o thing_n be_v dispute_v and_o oppose_v by_o some_o in_o the_o council_n without_o be_v censure_v for_o it_o although_o they_o be_v afterward_o decree_v by_o a_o major_a party_n yet_o can_v be_v say_v to_o have_v be_v there_o receive_v by_o a_o catholic_n tradition_n because_o matter_n of_o faith_n which_o have_v be_v universal_o receive_v in_o the_o church_n can_v never_o be_v suppose_v to_o be_v contest_v in_o a_o council_n without_o censure_n but_o if_o it_o appear_v that_o there_o be_v heat_n and_o warm_a debate_n among_o the_o party_n in_o the_o council_n itself_o and_o both_o think_v they_o speak_v the_o sense_n of_o the_o catholic_n church_n then_o we_o must_v either_o allow_v that_o there_o be_v then_o no_o know_v catholic_n tradition_n about_o those_o matter_n or_o that_o the_o divine_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n assemble_v in_o council_n do_v not_o understand_v what_o it_o be_v and_o what_o happen_v to_o be_v decree_v by_o a_o majority_n can_v never_o be_v conclude_v from_o thence_o to_o have_v be_v the_o tradition_n before_o because_o there_o be_v a_o different_a sense_n of_o other_o concern_v it_o and_o since_o in_o a_o division_n a_o single_a person_n may_v make_v a_o majority_n it_o will_v be_v very_o hard_a to_o believe_v that_o he_o carry_v infallibility_n and_o catholic_n tradition_n along_o with_o he_o but_o i_o think_v it_o reasonable_a in_o the_o enquiry_n
