To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" Believing in the presence of the Body and Blood of the Lord in the C(*isecrated Elements I believe that Presence to be in no sense material or corporeal, but spiritual : though none the less real and true, because spiritual. I think it would be idolatry to be abhorred of any Christian man, to worship the material Elements; nor would I worship the Body and Blood of Christ in the Elements, as subsisting (were this possible) apart from his Divine Person. In the words of Bishop Andrewes, how- eve...r, "Assuredly Christ Himself the substance of the Sacrament (Res Sacramenti) in and with the Sacrament (Sacramentum) out of and without the Sacrament, wheresoever He is, is to be adored. " In thus worshipping Christ in the Eucharist, inasmuch as this worship is addressed to His Divine Person, it would not be addressed as though he were, or could be, confined to the Holy Elements. Nor do I hold this view as though I had the right to condemn those who might not be able to receive it ; as I am well aware that on this sacred and mysterious subject, the Church has seen fit to tolerate a certain latitude of view, forbidddidg only Transubstantiation on the one side, and Zwinglianism on the other.
