M. Hardinge. The .27. Diuision.
Nowe, where as some say, that the Sacrament to be geuen vnder the forme of Breade, was firste dipte in the Bloude of our Lorde, and woulde haue so vsed now also, for the sicke, and that it is so to be taken for the whole and entier Sacrament, as though the Sacrament vnder the forme of Breade were not of it selfe sufficient: let them vnderstande, that this was an olde errour, condemned aboue twelue hundred yeeres past, by Iulius the firste, that great defender of Athanasius who hereof in an Epistle to the Bishoppes through Egypte, wrote thus:* 1.1 Illud verò quod pro comp••emento Communio∣nis intinctam tradunt Eucharistiam populis, nec hoc prolatum ex Euangelio testimonium receperunt, vbi Apostolis Corpus suum Dominus commendau••t & sanguinem. Seorsum enim panis, & seorsum Calicis commendatio memoratur. VVhere as some deliuer to the peo∣ple the Sacrament dipte, for the ful and whole Communion, they haue not receiued this testimonie pro∣nounced out of the Gospel, where our Lorde gaue his Bodie and his Bloude. For the geuing of the Bre••d is recorded aparte by it selfe: and the geuinge of the Cuppe, aparte likewise by it selfe. And where as some afterwarde in the time of Vitellianus woulde haue brought in againe this abrogated cu∣stome, it was in like manner condemned and abolished, In tertio Concilio Braccarensi. Can. 1.
