3. That mass might be celebrated, no man communicating with the priest.
4. That they might have reservation of the Lord’s body in churches.
5. That they might have holy bread and water in remembrance of Christ’s body and blood.
6. That priests might not be married.
7. That the six articles set forth by King Henry VIII. might be continued at least till the King came of age.

1. That the body of Christ is really present in the sacrament after consecration.
2. That the sacrament cannot truly be administered under both kinds.
3. That priests entered into holy orders might not marry.
