Discurs Modest

By A.T.

In Bishop Andrewes' Reply to the Apology of Bellarmine, chap. i. p. 7, ed. 4to. London, 1610, certain jesuits in prison are reported to have confessed, *Rem transubstantiationis patres ne attigisse quidem*; as authority for which is quoted *Discurs Modest*, p. 13. From this work apparently the passage is copied by Jeremy Taylor, *Real Presence*, sect. 12. § 16; *Dissuasive*, part i. chap. 1. § 5, and part 2. book 2. sect. 3. 3: also by Cosin on *Transubstantiation*, chap. 6. § 17. Can any of your readers favour me with a clue to the *Modest Discourse*?
