Ccrinion. 1. 3. HALF-COMMUMON. 25 T this candid Koman Catholics acknowledge, though some of them may deny it^ and others are ignorant of the fact. Afterward the Council of Trent de- creed in favor of half-communion. The Pope's faction was so powerful at that Council, that, con- trary to the institution of our Lord, they carried the measure which the Council of Constance had introduced. "^ The decree of the Council of Con- stance by which communion in one kind was established, reads as follows: ...*' Whereas, in several parts of the world, some have rashly presumed to assert that all Christians ought to receive the holy sacrament of the Eucha- rist under both species of bread and wine, and that also after supper, or not fasting, contrary to the laudable custom of the church, justly approved of, which they damnably endeavor to reprobate as sacrilegious; hence it is that this holy general Council of Constance, assembled by the Holy Ghost to provide for the salvation of the faithful against this error, declares, decrees and defines, that al- though Christ did after supper institute this lioly sacrament, and administer it to his disciples in both kinds, of bread and wine, yet, notwithstanding this, the laudabk authority of the sacred canons, and the approved custom of the church, hath fixed and doth fix that this sacrament ought not to be made after supper, nor received by the faithful not fasting.
