He saith, that “this is my body,” is as much to say as, “this is made my body.” And so he taketh est for fit, p. 295, line 35. Other say, that est is taken there substantive, that is to say, only for “is,” and not for “is made.” Marcus Antonius, fol. 171, facie 2, consideratione 6.

He saith, that where the body of Christ is, there is whole Christ, God and man; and that when we speak of Christs body, we must understand a true body, which hath both form and quantity, p. 71, line 37. Smith saith, that Christs body in the sacrament hath not his proper form and quantity, fol. 106.
He saith, we believe simply, that Christ’s body is naturally and corporally in the sacrament, without drawing away his accidences or adding, p. 353, line 1. Smith saith, we say that Christs body is in the sacrament against nature with all his qualities and accidents, fol. 105.
He saith, that God’s works be all seemliness without confusion, although he cannot locally distinct Christs head from his foot, nor his legs from his arms, p. 70, line 27?.

They teach that the body of Christ is made of bread: he saith, it was never so taught, p. 79, line 6, &c.

. He saith, that of the figure it may not be said, “Adore it, worship it,” and that is not to be adored, which the bodily eye seeth, p. 178, line 40, p. 239, line 32. Marcus Antonius, fol. 176, fac. 2. Smith saith contrary, fol. 145, fac. 2.
He saith, that reason will agree with the doctrine of transubstantiation well enough, p. 264, line 47. Smith saith, that transubstantiation is against reason and natural operation, fol. 60.
Other say, that worms in the sacrament be gendered of accidences. He saith, that they be wrong borne in hand to say so, p. 355, line 3.
He saith, that the accidences of bread and wine do mould, sour, and wax vinegar, Ρ. 265, line 11, and 355, line 8. And Marcus, fol. 168, fac. 1, Smith saith thus: “I say that the consecrated wine turneth not into vinegar, nor the consecrated bread mouldeth nor engendereth worms, nor is burned, nor receiveth into it any poison, as long as Christ’s body and blood are under the forms of them which do abide there, so long as the natural qualities and properties of bread and wine tarry there in their natural disposition and condition, that the bread and wine might be naturally there, if they had not been changed into Christ’s body and blood; and also as long as the host and consecrated wine are apt to be received of man, and no longer; but go and depart thence by God’s power, as it pleaseth him. And then a new substance is made of God, which turneth into vinegar, engendereth worms, mouldeth, is burned, feedeth men and mice, receiveth poison,” &c. fol. 64 and 105.
He saith, “Every yea containeth a nay in it naturally, so as whosoever saith, This is bread, saith it is no wine. For in the rule of common reason, the grant of one substance is the denial of another: and therefore reason hath these conclusions throughly, whatsoever is bread is no wine, whatsoever is wine is no milk, &c. So Christ saying, This is my body, saith it [is] no bread,” p. 256, line 38, and p. 265, line 5. Smith saith, a boy “which hath only learned the sophistry,” will not dispute so fondly, fol. 77. Other say, that the mass is a sacrifice satisfactory by devotion of the priest, and not by the thing that is offered. He saith otherwise, p. 80, line 43.
He saith, that the only immolation of Christ in himself upon the altar of the cross is the very satisfactory sacrifice for the reconciliation of mankind to the favour of God, p. 437, line 1, 2, and 31. Smith saith, “What is it to offer Christ’s body and blood at mass, to purchase thereby everlasting life, if it be not the mass to be a sacrifice to pacify God’s wrath for sin, and to obtain his mercy?” Smith, fol. 24, 148, 164. Priests do offer for our salvation to get heaven and to avoid hell, fol. eodem. MATTERS WHEREIN THE BISHOP VARIED FROM 4i.
