The. xxiii. chapyter

[…] this towarde the perceyuyng and bylyefe of that point of conuersyon of the brede and the wyne into the very flesshe and bloud of Christe: I sayd that those holy doctours and sayntes, vsed ensamples of other myracles done by god, and wryten in holy scrypture.

Now at thys word mayster masker asketh me Ende versus? where one I […] your you haue herd all redy good readers in the. xv. chapyter of the fyrste boke, the wordes of that holy doctour saynt Cyryll, in whyche for the credence of that poynt, that is to wytte the chaungynge of the brede and the wyne into Chrystes flesshe and hys bloud, he bryngeth the myracles that god wrought in the olde lawe, as the chaūgyng of the water into bloude, and the chaungyng of Moses rodde into a serpent, and dyuers other chaū ges and myghty myracles mo.

Yow haue herde also before, how saynt Chrysostome agaynste them ye wolde dowte, how Chryste coulde geue them hys flesshe to eate, layeth forth the myracle of the multiplyeng of fyue louys so sodaynly, to. xii basketes full more than the fuffycyent fedynge of fyue thousand folke.

Here be lo some verses yet mayster Masker, & mo than one miracle perdye, that those holy doctours and sayntes haue vsed in this mater of the blessed sacrament. And yet suche other mo shall I brynge you at another leysour, ere I haue done wyth your second course, that it shall greue you to se them. And surely where properly you scoffe at me wyth my many facys in one hode: I haue here in thys fyrste parte all redy brought you for the trew sayth of the catholyke chyrche, agaynste your false heresye, wherwith you wolde face our sauyout out of ye blessed sacrament: I haue brought agaynst you to your face, saint […] and Theophilactꝰ, saynt Austayne, and saynt Hylary, saynt Hyreneus, saynt Cyryll, and saynte Chrysostome, so many suche good facys into this one hode, that al the shamefullyes yt your shamelesse face can make, shall neuer agaynste these facys be able to face out the trouth. And thus ende I good readers my fourth boke.
