the_o marcionist_n deny_v he_o have_v ever_o a_o true_a and_o real_a body_n i_o shall_v say_v yet_o something_o more_o surprise_v but_o no_o less_o true_a than_o what_o i_o have_v say_v before_o this_o doctrine_n of_o transubstantiation_n 1._o establish_v that_o old_a and_o odd_a fancy_n of_o some_o dote_a philosopher_n who_o doubt_v of_o all_o thing_n how_o evident_a soever_o 2._o it_o be_v evident_o destructive_a to_o the_o whole_a body_n of_o christian_a religion_n in_o order_n to_o prove_v apodictical_o these_o two_o proposition_n i_o must_v suppose_v a_o three_o one_o as_o a_o self-evident_a principle_n and_o whence_o they_o both_o flow_v as_o from_o their_o only_a source_n that_o our_o sense_n in_o the_o eucharist_n be_v deceive_v in_o and_o about_o their_o proper_a object_n which_o i_o think_v can_v be_v deny_v by_o no_o romanist_n since_o they_o confess_v though_o they_o see_v all_o the_o appearance_n of_o true_a bread_n that_o nevertheless_o there_o be_v no_o such_o substance_n in_o the_o eucharist_n but_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n under_o the_o veil_n of_o bread_n and_o wine_n i_o see_v nothing_o i_o taste_v nothing_o i_o touch_v nothing_o in_o a_o consecrate_a wafer_n but_o what_o my_o sense_n be_v sensible_a of_o in_o a_o unconsecrated_a one_o but_o say_v the_o romanist_n i_o must_v not_o stand_v in_o this_o case_n to_o the_o judgement_n of_o my_o sense_n what_o i_o see_v touch_n and_o taste_v after_o the_o consecration_n be_v no_o more_o in_o reality_n bread_n whatever_o the_o constant_a and_o experimental_a knowledge_n of_o our_o sense_n teach_v we_o to_o the_o contrary_a they_o will_v grant_v than_o i_o hope_v they_o be_v deceive_v and_o mistake_v their_o own_o proper_a object_n but_o perhaps_o because_o they_o foresee_v the_o dangerous_a consequence_n of_o such_o a_o concession_n some_o will_v be_v apt_a to_o run_v to_o a_o school-distinction_n in_o aim_n to_o defend_v with_o a_o show_n of_o reason_n this_o self-evident_a falsehood_n that_o our_o sense_n in_o the_o case_n here_o handle_v be_v not_o deceive_v as_o to_o their_o proper_a object_n they_o may_v distinguish_v i_o fancy_n two_o sort_n of_o

be_v the_o substance_n itself_o our_o sense_n say_v they_o mistake_v not_o the_o former_a because_o the_o accident_n be_v the_o same_o both_o before_o and_o after_o the_o consecration_n but_o sure_o i_o be_o they_o mistake_v the_o latter_a it_o be_v now_o by_o their_o principle_n invisible_o change_v into_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n this_o distinction_n than_o can_v serve_v their_o turn_n let_v they_o torture_v their_o discursive_a faculty_n never_o so_o much_o they_o shall_v never_o be_v able_a to_o prove_v that_o our_o sense_n be_v not_o true_o deceive_v represent_v to_o we_o as_o bread_n what_o real_o if_o we_o believe_v the_o romanist_n be_v not_o bread_n i_o come_v now_o to_o the_o conclusion_n spring_v natural_o from_o this_o grant_a principle_n if_o i_o mind_v to_o play_v the_o pyrrhonian_n and_o doubt_v of_o every_o thing_n i_o have_v from_o the_o romish_a transubstantiation_n a_o ground_n whereon_o to_o build_v this_o extravagancy_n whither-soev_a i_o direct_v my_o sight_n i_o can_v ascertain_v you_o of_o nothing_o that_o my_o eye_n see_v i_o enter_v into_o a_o garden_n and_o there_o i_o behold_v here_o lily_n and_o there_o rose_n i_o smell_v they_o i_o touch_v they_o and_o yet_o i_o may_v question_v the_o truth_n of_o this_o and_o doubt_v if_o i_o see_v any_o such_o thing_n what_o if_o the_o red_a of_o the_o rose_n and_o the_o white_a of_o the_o lily_n be_v now_o by_o a_o eucharistick-like_a miracle_n the_o coverture_n of_o some_o other_o substance_n that_o be_v neither_o rose_n nor_o lily_n so_o perhaps_o it_o be_v not_o a_o rose_n that_o i_o smell_v a_o lily_n that_o i_o see_v fire_v that_o i_o feel_v a_o apple_n that_o i_o taste_v a_o trumpet_n that_o i_o hear_v but_o some_o other_o substance_n in_o their_o shape_n and_o clothe_v with_o their_o
