1 FIrst, whether he beleeueth the mariage of priests to be lawfull by the lawes of God & holy church, or no?
2 Item, whether he beleeueth,* 1.1 that in the blessed Sacra∣ment of the aultar, after the wordes of consecration duely pronounced by the priest, the very body & bloud of Christ is really and substantially conteined, without the substāce of bread and wyne.
Unto the which articles the said B. required the sayd M. Farrer to answer vpon his allegeance.* 1.2
To which he said, he would aunswer when he sawe a lawfull commission, and would make no further answer at that tyme. Whereupon the sayd B. taking no aduaun∣tage vpon the same aunswer, committed him to the sayde keeper, to be kept in prison vntill a new monition, and in the meane tyme to deliberate with himselfe for his further answer to the premisses.
