some_o that_o pretend_v themselves_o to_o be_v the_o minister_n of_o christ_n especial_o that_o of_o the_o lord_n supper_n for_o instead_o of_o invite_v and_o exhort_v christian_n to_o be_v partaker_n at_o the_o lord_n table_n they_o have_v make_v it_o their_o great_a endeavour_n to_o deter_v they_o from_o it_o in_o which_o they_o deal_v very_o unfaithful_o with_o the_o soul_n of_o their_o hearet_n for_o they_o vehement_o inculcate_v the_o danger_n of_o unworthy_a receive_v without_o acquaint_v they_o with_o to_o danger_n of_o not_o receive_v at_o all_o this_o omission_n you_o must_v be_v

christian_n who_o neglect_v to_o partake_v of_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n in_o the_o lord_n supper_n these_o thing_n you_o shall_v preach_v and_o exhort_v and_o thereby_o show_v yourselves_o faithful_a to_o your_o lord_n and_o master_n who_o have_v ordain_v these_o two_o sacrament_n to_o be_v perpetual_o use_v and_o administer_v in_o the_o church_n until_o his_o come_n again_o for_o which_o purpose_n as_o there_o be_v in_o every_o church_n a_o font_n for_o baptism_n so_o there_o be_v a_o part_n of_o the_o church_n very_o convenient_a and_o proper_a and_o general_o fit_v and_o prepare_v for_o the_o celebration_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n which_o we_o call_v the_o chancel_n here_o the_o communion-table_n may_v be_v place_v and_o the_o communicant_n receive_v with_o great_a order_n decency_n and_o convenience_n for_o devotion_n than_o in_o the_o body_n of_o the_o church_n and_o the_o seat_n there_o i_o doubt_v not_o but_o you_o my_o brethren_n be_v sensible_a of_o this_o and_o satisfy_v in_o it_o find_v great_a inconvenience_n in_o consecrate_v in_o so_o strait_a a_o place_n as_o a_o ally_n of_o the_o church_n and_o deliver_v the_o bread_n and_o wine_n in_o narrow_a seat_n over_o the_o head_n and_o tread_v upon_o the_o foot_n of_o those_o that_o kneel_v when_o by_o remove_v into_o the_o chancel_n at_o the_o time_n of_o that_o solemnity_n every_o one_o may_v kneel_v without_o disturbance_n and_o receive_v with_o easiness_n and_o see_v the_o whole_a office_n perform_v this_o be_v so_o proper_a and_o so_o become_v that_o one_o can_v but_o wonder_n that_o the_o parishioner_n in_o any_o place_n shall_v be_v averse_a to_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n in_o this_o order_n and_o that_o rector_n as_o well_o impropriate_a as_o propriate_v

reformation_n make_v use_v of_o the_o chancel_n to_o say_v mass_n so_o they_o use_v the_o body_n of_o the_o church_n to_o perform_v other_o part_n of_o the_o popish_a service_n and_o for_o that_o reason_n they_o may_v as_o well_o except_o against_o the_o use_n of_o the_o church_n for_o read_v the_o scripture_n and_o preach_a as_o against_o the_o use_n of_o the_o chancel_n for_o administer_a the_o communion_n and_o there_o want_v not_o those_o who_o carry_v the_o argument_n so_o far_o as_o to_o cry_v down_o the_o use_n of_o church_n in_o general_a but_o how_o weak_a and_o how_o
