Test. — The test, as it is called, is in these terms ;— " I, A. B., do solemnly and sincerely, in the presence of God, profess, testify, and declare, that I do believe in the sacrament of the Lord's Supper, and that there is not any transubstantiation of the elements of bread and wine into the body and blood of Christ, at or after the consecration thereof by any person whatsoever; and that the invocation or adoration of the Virgin Mary, or any other saint, and the sacrifice of the mass, as they are now used in the Church of Rome, are superstitious and idolatrous."
