M. Hardinge. The .3. Diuision.

Nothinge can be plainer to this purpose,* 1.1 then the saieinges of S. Ambrose. Licet Figura Panis, & Vini videatur,* 1.2 nihil tamen aliud, quam Caro Christi, & Sanguis, post Consecrationem credendum est. Although, saith he, the forme of Breade, and VVine be seene, yet after Consecration we must beleue, they are nothinge elles, but the Fleashe, and Bloude of Christe. After the opinion of this Father, the shewe and figure of Breade and VVine are seene, and therefore remaine after Con∣secration. And if we must beleue, that whiche was Breade, and VVine before, to be none other thinge, but the Fleashe and Bloude of Christe, then are they no other thinge in deede. For if they were, we might so beleue. For beleefe is grounded vpon trueth, and what so euer is not true, is not to be be∣leued. Hereof it foloweth, that after Consecration the accidentes, and shewes onely remaine with∣out the Substance of Breade and VVine.* 1.3 In an other place he saith as muche. Panis iste, &c. This Breade before the woordes of the Sacramentes, is Breade: as soone as the Consecration cometh, of Breade is made the Bodie of Christe. Againe in an other place he saith most plainely, That the power of Consecration is greater, then the Power of Nature: Bicause Nature is changed by Consecration. By this Father it is euident, that the Nature (178)* 1.4 that is to say, the Substance of Breade, and

by Consecration beinge chaunged into the Bodie,* 1.5 and Bloude of Christe, theire natural qualities, whiche be accidentes, continewinge vnchanged for performance of the Sacrament, remaine with∣out the Substance of Breade and VVine.
