The answere.
I say first, that howsoeuer sundry of you admire your Ie∣suites [ 1] (whom I willingly confesse to be learned, wishing they would vse their learning to Gods glorie) yet cannot wise men be carried away with ipse dixit, as if they were become disci∣ples of Pythagoras. I say secōdly, that S. Pauls own words [ 2] confute your Iesuite sufficiently. For first, he saith that he de∣liuered euen that which he receiued. Againe, he reciteth the precept aswel after the cup as after the bread, which must bee wel obserued. For hereupon doth it follow that both kinds be of like force, the one not more commanded then ye other. Third¦ly, he applieth aswel the drinking of the cup as the eating of ye bread, to al the faithful in generall. Fourthly, he applieth the examination to euery one of the faithful. Fiftly, he willeth the examination to be made, aswel in drinking of the cup, as in eat∣ing of the bread. Sixtly, he wrote & spake aswel to the lay peo¦ple as to the priests, as the beginning of the epistle declareth. And in this sense doth their owne Haymo (so reputed) expound S. Paul: for these are his words; Ego▪ n•• accepi à domino,quod et tradidi vobis .i. myster••ū corporis & sanguinis Dom. quomodo debeatis sumere. Sicut mihi reuelauit, ita tradidi vobis. For I haue receiued of the Lord, that which I deliuered to you, that is, the mysterie of our Lords body and bloud, in what manner ye ought to receiue it. Euen as he reuealed it to me, so haue I deliuered it to you.
