(3)(a) Christian praxis vs the first table: religious worship of the Triune God.

In the Mass what every sense calls bread and wine (accidents showing and composing the thing) is believed and preached as the highest God, and commanded to communicants and bystanders under latria — the cult Pontificians themselves wall off from every lesser cult.

Latin

(3.) Praxi Christiana, quà priorem Legis Divinæ Tabulam, (a) Naturali de toto Triuno Deo religiosâ veneratione colendo: quandoquidem in Missa illud ipsum, quod sensus omnes testantur panem ac vinum esse (speciebus seu accidentibus horum, non tantùm substantias suas oculis exponentibus, sed, ceu particulas, eorum constitutionem ingredientibus) summus Deus & creditur, & prædicatur esse, & illo ipso cultu, qui summo Deo proprius est, quique à pontificiis ipsis, per λατρείας nomen ab omni alio inferiori cultu discriminatur, Communicaturis, quin Missæ Celebrationi adstantibus quibusvis, adorandum præbetur atque edicitur.
