the_o sacrament_n i_o say_v that_o forasmuch_o as_o the_o whole_a matter_n stand_v in_o the_o understanding_n of_o these_o word_n of_o christ_n this_o be_v my_o body_n this_o be_v my_o blood_n i_o

but_o their_o doctrine_n be_v so_o fond_a and_o uncomfortable_a that_o i_o marvel_v that_o any_o man_n will_v allow_v it_o if_o he_o know_v what_o it_o be_v and_o what_o so_o ever_o they_o bear_v the_o people_n in_o hand_n body_n the_o papist_n make_v christ_n two_o body_n that_o which_o they_o write_v in_o their_o book_n have_v neither_o truth_n nor_o comfort_n for_o by_o their_o doctrine_n
