only_o a_o spiritual_a presence_n what_o pretence_n can_v those_o heretic_n have_v to_o resuse_v they_o 2._o 6._o because_o both_o the_o ancient_a liturgy_n and_o father_n of_o the_o church_n do_v testify_v the_o general_a custom_n of_o god_n people_n to_o adore_v christ_n present_a upon_o the_o altar_n after_o consecration_n and_o this_o not_o only_o in_o the_o time_n of_o administration_n but_o afterward_o also_o as_o suppose_v that_o that_o which_o remain_v be_v and_o continue_v true_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n according_a to_o those_o word_n of_o s._n cyrill_n of_o alexandria_n

8._o i_o will_v further_o add_v that_o that_o which_o give_v i_o entire_a satisfaction_n and_o oblige_v i_o in_o conscience_n to_o silence_n and_o not_o to_o answer_v my_o reason_n when_o it_o will_v
