and man, (which wee also confesse) together with the father and the holie ghost, forgiueth sinnes: but he doth it in one sort, as he is God, and in another, as he is man. For as he is god, he doeth effect the same properly and of his authoritie: but as he is man, he doth it, and did it in the flesh, as being a fello-worker with the deitie: in his humaine will consenting to the diuine, and pronouncing the wordes thy sinnes are forgiuen thee: as also Leo the first, so expoū∣deth it to Flauianus, saying, each forme (name∣ly of God and man) worketh with communion of the other, that which is proper to it selfe: as, the word working that which is proper to the word, & the flesh performing that which belongeth to the flesh. To for∣giue sinnes vvas the proper action of the diuine na∣ture: and to saye, thy sinnes are forgiuen thee, of the humaine. Thus farre he.
