The answer.

Saint Augustine doth not saie, that the whole order of the administration of the Lords supper is not to be gathered hence. For if the whole institution of Christ, be not a direction to vs for that, whence shall we haue it? But it is best for you to stand vpon deniall of this, bicause you break the whole institution of Christ. How did Paule deliuer that which he receiued of the Lord, if he deliuered not the order of the administration of the sacrament? did not Christ leaue vnto his church an order for it? Though the Apostles drift here be agianst vnreuerent and vnwoorthy recei∣uing, yet that could not be better reformed, then by teaching the reuerende and orderly vse of it. But bicause you haue in your larger annotations bestowed great labor about this point, there∣fore I refer it ouer to the answer of them.
