Book excerpt: Excerpt from Papers on the Doctrine of the English Church Concerning the Eucharistic Presence, Vol. 2 of 2 IN proceeding now to the consideration of our Communion Service, let me begin by asking of my readers some allowance for the difficulties I feel, in so setting forth my own views in relation to the Opinions and arguments of those who differ from me, as to do justice to my own convictions, and at the same time to do no injustice to the views, and no injury to the feel ings of those who maintain the Real Objective Presence. If sometimes I shall fail to overcome these difficulties, I trust the failure will not be set down to any desire to offend. Generals do not concentrate their forces on sandhills, nor build fortifications on mud banks, if there is a strong height within easy reach. It argues ill for the possession of strong points and great points, when men plant their strength on what is weak and small. Let it not seem to be said unkindly, when I say, that it cannot but strike one, as arguing forcibly against any real strength in their position, that in dealing with the service for the Holy Communion, the maintainers of the Real Objective Presence, are found to build their arguments so much upon what may fairly be called small matters, some of them mere minutiae and grammatical niceties. When we enter on an examination of this service, surely we are entering on that which should yield us at once, abundantly and unmistakably, the teaching of our Church's doctrines on the subject of the Eucharist.
