which_o christ_n command_v we_o to_o use_v that_o he_o may_v by_o they_o represent_v to_o our_o eye_n the_o mystery_n of_o our_o salvation_n and_o most_o strong_o confirm_v the_o faith_n we_o have_v

that_o we_o may_v remain_v in_o he_o and_o he_o in_o we_o 12._o we_o acknowledge_v that_o there_o be_v two_o sacrament_n proper_o so_o call_v baptism_n and_o the_o supper_n of_o the_o lord_n for_o

baptism_n be_v the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o remission_n of_o sin_n and_o of_o that_o wash_v which_o we_o have_v in_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n and_o that_o none_o be_v to_o be_v deny_v that_o sacrament_n who_o will_v profess_v the_o faith_n of_o christ_n no_o not_o the_o infant_n of_o christian_n because_o they_o be_v bear_v in_o sin_n and_o belong_v to_o the_o people_n of_o god_n 14._o we_o say_v that_o the_o eucharist_n be_v the_o sacrament_n or_o visible_a symbol_n of_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n in_o which_o the_o death_n and_o resurrection_n of_o christ_n and_o what_o he_o do_v in_o his_o humane_a body_n be_v in_o a_o manner_n represent_v to_o our_o eye_n that_o we_o may_v give_v he_o thanks_o for_o his_o death_n and_o our_o deliverance_n by_o it_o and_o that_o by_o frequent_v the_o sacrament_n we_o may_v often_o renew_v the_o remembrance_n of_o it_o and_o that_o by_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n we_o may_v be_v nourish_v into_o the_o hope_n of_o the_o resurrection_n and_o of_o eternal_a life_n and_o that_o we_o may_v be_v assure_v that_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n have_v the_o same_o effect_n in_o the_o feed_n of_o our_o soul_n which_o the_o bread_n and_o wine_n have_v in_o the_o repair_n the_o decay_n of_o our_o body_n to_o this_o great_a and_o solemn_a feast_n the_o people_n be_v to_o be_v invite_v that_o they_o may_v all_o communicate_v together_o and_o may_v public_o signify_v and_o testify_v both_o their_o union_n and_o society_n among_o themselves_o and_o that_o hope_v which_o they_o have_v in_o christ_n jesus_n and_o therefore_o if_o there_o be_v any_o one_o heretofore_o before_o the_o private_a mass_n be_v introduce_v who_o will_v be_v only_o a_o spectator_n and_o yet_o will_v abstain_v from_o the_o holy_a communion_n the_o bishop_n of_o rome_n in_o the_o primitive_a time_n and_o the_o ancient_a father_n will_v have_v excommunicate_v he_o as_o a_o wicked_a man_n and_o a_o pagan_a omnes_fw-la nor_o be_v there_o any_o christian_a man_n in_o those_o time_n who_o communicate_v alone_o in_o the_o presence_n of_o other_o who_o be_v only_a spectator_n so_o anacletus_fw-la calixtus_n long_o since_o decree_v that_o when_o the_o consecration_n be_v finish_v all_o shall_v communicate_v if_o they_o will_v not_o be_v deprive_v of_o the_o communion_n of_o the_o church_n and_o be_v shut_v out_o of_o it_o for_o so_o say_v he_o the_o apostle_n ordain_v and_o the_o holy_a church_n of_o rome_n hold_v and_o we_o say_v that_o both_o the_o part_n of_o the_o sacrament_n ought_v to_o be_v give_v to_o all_o that_o come_v to_o the_o holy_a communion_n for_o so_o christ_n command_v and_o the_o apostle_n institute_v throughout_o the_o world_n and_o all_o the_o ancient_a father_n and_o catholic_n bishop_n so_o practise_v comperimus_fw-la and_o if_o any_o one_o shall_v do_v otherwise_o say_v gelasius_n he_o commit_v sacrilege_n and_o therefore_o our_o adversary_n who_o explode_v and_o reject_v the_o communion_n defend_v the_o private_a mass_n and_o a_o multitude_n of_o sacrament_n without_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n without_o any_o ancient_a council_n without_o any_o catholic_n father_n without_o any_o example_n of_o the_o primitive_a church_n and_o without_o reason_n and_o this_o against_o the_o express_a command_n of_o christ_n and_o also_o against_o all_o antiquity_n in_o so_o do_v act_n wicked_o and_o sacrilegious_o 15._o we_o say_v that_o the_o bread_n and_o wine_n be_v the_o holy_a and_o heavenly_a mystery_n of_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n and_o that_o in_o they_o christ_n himself_o the_o true_a bread_n of_o eternal_a life_n be_v so_o exhibit_v to_o we_o as_o present_v that_o we_o do_v by_o faith_n true_o take_v his_o body_n and_o blood_n and_o yet_o at_o the_o same_o time_n we_o speak_v not_o this_o so_o as_o if_o we_o think_v the_o nature_n of_o the_o bread_n and_o wine_n be_v total_o change_v and_o abolish_v as_o many_o in_o the_o last_o age_n have_v dream_v and_o as_o yet_o can_v never_o agree_v among_o themselves_o about_o this_o dream_n for_o neither_o do_v christ_n ever_o design_n that_o the_o wheaten_n bread_n shall_v change_v its_o nature_n and_o assume_v a_o new_a kind_n of_o divinity_n but_o rather_o that_o it_o may_v change_v we_o and_o that_o as_o ●_o theophylact_fw-mi say_v we_o may_v be_v transelemented_n into_o his_o body_n for_o what_o can_v be_v more_o perspicuous_a than_o what_o 4._o st._n ambrose_n say_v on_o this_o occasion_n the_o bread_n and_o wine_n be_v what_o

than_o what_o consecratione_fw-la theodoret_n after_o the_o consecration_n the_o mystical_a symbol_n do_v not_o cast_v off_o their_o own_o proper_a nature_n for_o they_o remain_v in_o their_o former_a
