ngues: Our sacrificers cleane contrary / will rather
speake a thousand / yea an infinite number of wordes in a
straunge tongue / then a very feawe / the meaning of which maye
be vnderstonded. Paule proueth his sentence and minde / euen by
thinges that haue no lyfe / as by a trompe / and harp / and les
we shulde be one to an other as barbarus / and aliauntes / but
this is of no force / nor auctoritie with the papistes. For our
purpose we haue the example of Godd himself / which dyd speake
vnto the Iuishe people in their naturall tongue. The greke
churche did receyue the doctryne of the gospel of the Apostles
(whiche were Hebrues) in their naturall greke tongue. And as
from the beginninge the Hebrues in theyr congregacions haue vsed
their naturall Hebrue tongue / so haue the Grecians their greke
tongue / and so at the begynning the latin churche vsed their
naturall latine tongue also: Only these heretiques (the papistes
I meane) are delighted with a straunge tongue.

[[In nouel. Constitu]]

Iustiniane the Emprour determineth / that all thinges shulde be
spoken openlye and plainlye in the Temples / that they mighte
bothe be hearde and vnderstonded / But this the papistes regarde
not. Wherfor seing they can not / nor will not / be moued from
this their opinion / which is so absurde and repugnant to the
holye scriptures / to the order of the catholique churche / to
the lawes of the Emproure / without all doubt they are
heretiques.

They do teache that the sacrament of the Lordes body and bludd /
shuld be ministred in one kinde only / when it is gyuen to the
people. It is most manifest and playne / that Christe our
Sauiour did otherwyse institute it / euen to be mynistred in
bothe kindes to all communicauntes. These sacrificers therfore
in taking awaye of the cupp from the people they do committ most
shamefull sacriledge. We bring in agaynst them the Institucion
of Christe: But that can they not abyde to heare of. Yeat les
they shulde seame to saye nothing / They saye / That the Lord
did delyuer it in bothe kindes vnto prestes onlye / that is to
his Apostles. And yet when they themselues do mynister it vnto
prestes whiche do not saye Masse / they do gyue but the one
kinde only. But they haue nothinge to aunswer vnto Paule
