unity, as Hilary there speaketh, but by the communion,
by which we are carnally made one, but not likewise by
baptism: wherefore you understand not Hilary. You shall
hear his words, which are these: ‘‘ He had now declared
‘* afore the sacrament of his perfect union, saying, As the liv-
“ ing Father sent me, so do I also live by the Father. And,
“ He that eateth my flesh, shall also live through mes.”
And a little after that he writeth thus: ‘ This truly is the
** cause of our life, that we have Christ dwelling by his
“ς flesh in us that are fleshly, which also by him shall live
“in such sort as he liveth by his Father.” Wherefore of
these words it is manifest, that we obtain this perfect unity
by means of the sacrament, and that Christ by it is carnally
united unto us.
Cran. Nay, Hilary in that same place doth teach, that it
is done by baptism: and that doctrine is not to be suffered
in the Church, which teacheth, that we are not joined to
Christ by baptism.
West. Repeat the argument.
Cran. You must first make an argument.
Tresh. It is made already, but it shall be made again in
this form :

As Christ liveth by his Father, so they that eat Christ’s
flesh live by the same flesh ;.
But Christ liveth by the Father, not only by faith and
love, but naturally :

Ergo, We live, not through the eating of Christ’s flesh
by faith and love only, but naturally.
Cran. We live by Christ, not only by faith and love, but
eternally indeed.
