A Candid Inquiry into the Controversies among Evangelicals · §136

J.X close: Above all for Truth and Protestant peace — both sides agree on Lord's Supper substance; do not devour each other over words while Rome dances

Finally — and most of all — it was for Truth and for Protestant peace.

Both Evangelical sides already agree in the matter and substance of the truth on the article of the Lord's Supper (that will be plain below).

They must not be torn apart by fights over words in either Augsburg Confession, and bite one another to pieces while Rome dances.

Latin

Partim denique & maxime omnium in gratiam & Veritatis & Pacis Protestanticae, ne, quemadmodum Evangelicorum utraque pars in re & substantia Veritatis, quoad Articulum de Sacra Coena, consentit, (id quod infra ad oculum patebit) ita litigiis de verbis, in alterutra Confessione Augustana repertis, distrahantur & inter tripudia Pontificia mordeant se mutuo, a se mutuo consumendi.
