seruandes or subiectes at his command which I do now shortlie It is said in Scripture that Noie did all that God cōmanded him and plaine it is that God cōmanded him to make the Arck Gen. 6.7 which wes ī building the full space of a hundreth yeares God further cōmanded him to furnish the Arck with all kynde of victualles which the text affirmeth that he did Now if we shal conclude that Noie allone cutted euerie tree Noie allone did hew euerie tree and so forth it appeareth to me that we shal conclude a great absurditie The same is euidēt in Dauid of whome mention is made that he being Prophet and King 2 Sam. ● deuided to the whole people yea vnto the whole multitude of Israel yea bothe to men and women an portion of bread an portion of flesh and an portion of wine If we shall think that Dauid did this with his own hand we shall conclude in my appearance the formar absurditie The same is manifest by many other phrases yea and by our daylie maner of speaking And therefore yet as of before I think my Lordes exposition coact in that he will admit none to haue broght forth the bread and wine but Melchisedec allone But howsoeuer it be it moueth me nothing for vnto suche tyme as that my Lorde in plaine wordes pronounced by the holy Goste proue that Melchisedec did offer vnto God bread and wine he hath prouen nothing of that which he took on hand to proue And therefore I greatlie feare that whill that The best ground culd find no ground within the word of God which his lordeship calleth the best is so long in finding an sure ground within the Scripture that the rest in the end be found altogether groundles at the least within the boke of God And therefore I desyre as of before to hear his lordshipes probation of the principal M. Quintyne I am sorie that we ar contrined on this maner to driue tyme ather parteis in iustification of his a win cause bot wisses quicklie to go to the markis point as I haue euer done conforme to my artickle and to my warrand and makis the haile warld to iudge quhither it is my deutie efter formall ressoning to defend the saides artickles or to proue or to impung Quhair Iohn Knox makis ane meine that I haue brocht my argumēts or purposes in writ quhat I haue in worde or writ or vtherwayes I praise God Bot the trueth is according to my custome I maid memorie efter my repose of sic heides as I thocht I was able to haue busines ado with all And that I did be the grace of God onely not that I am eschamed to be learned with ony man that wil teach me And as to the conclusiō of his partickle quhair he dois mak meine yat I haue na groūd of the Scripture for the messe as he beleuis will God sall frustrat his expectation in that When ye perform promes let men beleue you and all vthers And assures him will God sall iustifie the messe al 's sufficientlie conforme to my artickle as he and all the rest of his opinion in christendome salbe able to iustifie be expres Scripture or ony vther meine that Iesus Christe is ane substance with the Father Homonsion siue cōsubstantialis And that it be not thocht that thir ar wantone wordes like as the mater sould not cum to pas bot that I wald trifle the mater I will desyre Iohn Knox maist humblie hartlie for Christes saike lat vs go schortlie without trifling to the purpose and lat wark beir witnes And swa requires to resume my argument and say thereto formalie as effeires Iohn Knox. Because that euerie man muste giue accomptes before God not onely of his workes but also of his wordes and thoghts I will make no further protestation whether that I haue defended hitherto my own opinion or a manifest treuth or whether that I haue impungned any treuth of God or a manifest lie let this be said with reuerence of all persones for the iustnes of the cause leauing I say the iudgement to God I say that I haue in plaine termes iustlie oppungned bothe the groūdes broght forth by my Lord for defence of his artickle For in plaine wordes I haue denied that Iesus Christe into his latter Supper did make any Sacrifice of his bodie and blood vnder the formes of bread and wine vnto God his Father And lykewise I haue denyed that Melchisedec did offer vnto God bread and wine as of before which groūdes because my Lorde hath not hitherto ꝓuen I must hold them as impunged and oppūgned euer whill I hear the ground of Melchisedec plainly prouen by plaine Scripture to wit that the plaine Scripture say that Melchisedec offered vnto God bread and wine Let my lord answer when he pleases or that it be of any plaine and euident Scripture plainlie conuicted that so he did His lordship oght not to think it strange althogh I require to answer in writ to that argument which his Lordeship hath ꝓponded conceaued before and cōmitted in writ for such I take to be the libertie of all fre disputations Whose lauboure it wes or is I nothing regard For so long as God doeth minister vnto me spirit life with iudgement and habilitie I intend by his grace til oppūg that which in my cōscience I hold to be damnable idolatrie And where his lordship sayeth that he is al 's able to affirme the masse which I impung to be the ordinance of God as that I or any of my opinion is able to proue Iesus Christe to be one substance with the Father Let the godlie iudge if the masse Christ Iesus his diuinitie oght to hing in one ballance with reuerēce of his lordshipes personage blood and honor and with the reuerence pacience of the whole auditor I say that the assercion is not onelie rashe but also moste dangerous yea and in a part blasphemous For for to compare the greatest mysterie yea the whole assurance of our redemptiō with that which as it hath bene vsed hath no approbation of Gods worde for that I haue impūgned and intendes to impung can not lack suspition of a lightlie esteaming of our redemptiō And to cut the matter short the formar question being decided to wit whither that Melchisedec did offer vnto God bread and wine I offer my self without further delay to proue that Iesus Christe is of one substance with the Father and that by the euident testimonies of Gods Scriptures And therefore yet as of before I humbly require his lordeship to prepare him for his probation of the formar to witt of the oblation of Melchisedec M. Quintyne Quhair Iohn Knox dois affirme that in plaine termis he hes iustlie impunged baith ye groūdes brocht furth be me for defēce of my artickles I answer I deny that he hes maid ony impūgnation And quhair he sayes that in
