It consists of three parts, the first of which begins thus : "Tres sunt methodi in queis ego cum aliis." Leland de This John Kyningham or Kilingham or Cunningham was Script. Brit. a Carmelite Friar, and Provincial of the Order in England p. 386. and Ireland. But what added to his reputation was, his being often used by John of Gaunt Duke of Lancaster for his confessor. He was one of the first who opposed Dr. Wiclif, and is said to have published three books against Knighton him. In 1382 he preached at the church of the Preaching Angliæ. fol, Friars, London, at the close of the procession ordered by de Event. 2650. IX. the Archbishop to be made after his condemnation of the CHAP. Conclusions said to be maintained by Dr. Wiclif and his followers. At this sermon we are told was present among others a knight named Cornelius Cloune, who was a great favourer of the Conclusions now condemned, and one of those who held and taught them; nor would he for any thing believe otherwise of the Sacrament of the Altar than that there was true material bread, according to the opinion of Wiclif. The next day, viz. the Vigil of the Holy Trinity, this knight went to the same convent to hear mass, which was celebrated by one of the students of the convent. When at the breaking of the Host casting his eye upon it, he saw in the hands of the Friar that celebrated, very flesh, raw and bloody, and divided into three parts. The knight, full of wonder and amazement, as well he might be, called his squire that he might see it, but he saw nothing more than usual. But the knight in the third piece, which ought likewise to be put into the chalice, in the middle of it saw this name IHESUS written in letters of flesh all raw and bloody, which, the relater observes, was very wonderful to behold. And the next day, the feast of the Holy Trinity, the same Friar preaching at Paul's Cross, told this story to all the people, which, after sermon was done, the knight attested the truth of, promising that he would fight and die in that cause, for that in the Sacrament of the Altar there is the very body of Christ, and not bread only, as he himself before believed. Such were the artifices of those at that time who zealously defended the Popish doctrine; under the sham pretence of a miraculous conviction and conversion to give authority to their delusions among the common people. 226.-Contra Bynhamum monachum, lib. 1. This William Leland de Binham was a monk, but of what order is uncertain. He Script. Brit. was very observant of the rites and ceremonies then in use, and therefore resented Dr. Wiclif's attempt to reform them. But he was by no means a match for Wiclif, who was his superior in learning, and more than his equal in the subtilty and quickness of disputation, and in the force of P |
