Thirdly, If vnder the forme of bread were onely the bodie of Christ, and his soule and bloud were not by con∣comitancie there, the communicants should receiue the body of Christ, but not truely Christ, as our Aduersaries grant. Caluin specially saying, Quis sanus & sobrius Christi [ E] corpus Christum esse sibi persuadeat? And againe, Ne fando quidem auditum est corpus Christi, aut sanguinem Deum & hominem appellari. But Fathers
affirme most constantly, that not onely the bodie of Christ, [ A] but also a Christ himselfe is in the Sacrament; that we take in the Dominicall refection, The word made flesh; that by the consecration of the Mysteries, wee receiue the verie Sonne of God; that vnder the forme of Bread, we lodge within vs the Soueraigne King; and that we see Christ, feele Christ, eate Christ, Non regium puerum, sed ip∣sum vnigenitum Dei filium. An hundred other places might be brought, where the Fathers call the consecrated [ B] Bread Christ; and consequently, they did not thinke there was the meere Bodie, without Blood and Soule, seeing, as Caluin doth confesse, Jt is an absurd manner of speech, to terme Christ the meere bodie of Christ; and such a forme of speech was neuer heard of hitherto in the world: Ergo, Concomitancie, that is, Christs reall and entire Bodie, Soule, Flesh, Blood, to be vnder the forme of Bread, was acknowledged by the Fathers.
