shall_v i_o need_v to_o say_v more_o but_o this_o that_o ●ee_n must_v in_o all_o thing_n look_v unto_o the_o first_o institution_n as_o our_o lord_n jesus_n himself_o also_o do_v when_o man_n speak_v unto_o he_o of_o put_v away_o their_o wife_n who_o tell_v they_o that_o moses_n for_o the_o hardness_n of_o their_o heart_n suffer_v it_o but_o from_o the_o beginning_n it_o be_v not_o so_o and_o in_o like_a manner_n to_o such_o as_o plead_v for_o kneel_v at_o the_o receive_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n we_o may_v answer_v that_o for_o want_v of_o love_n to_o the_o lord_n and_o his_o truth_n it_o have_v please_v he_o to_o give_v they_o over_o to_o hardness_n of_o heart_n &_o strong_a delusion_n and_o as_o the_o papist_n those_o gross_a idolater_n receive_v the_o sign_n of_o christ_n body_n and_o blood_n to_o wit_n bread_n and_o wine_n think_v it_o to_o be_v the_o very_a body_n and_o blood_n itself_o contrary_a to_o their_o own_o sense_n they_o do_v for_o more_o reverence_n to_o it_o kneel_v before_o it_o and_o worship_v it_o as_o their_o god_n and_o maker_n even_o so_o our_o formal_a protestant_n at_o the_o celebration_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n do_v likewise_o kneel_v imitate_v therein_o those_o idolater_n and_o so_o nourish_v that_o popish_a error_n of_o error_n but_o from_o the_o beginning_n it_o be_v not_o so_o for_o at_o the_o first_o institution_n it_o be_v receive_v as_o they_o sit_v at_o the_o table_n but_o we_o can_v no_o where_o find_v in_o all_o the_o scripture_n that_o ever_o they_o receive_v it_o kneel_v or_o that_o ever_o true_a christian_n believe_v those_o holy_a sign_n be_v transubstantiate_v into_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n as_o the_o papist_n false_o teach_v
therefore_o as_o well_o that_o opinion_n as_o their_o and_o the_o protestant_n practice_n be_v high_o sinful_a and_o for_o ever_o ought_v to_o be_v shun_v both_o because_o god_n never_o require_v

therefore_o to_o take_v heed_n what_o example_n we_o follow_v dinah_n the_o daughter_n of_o jakob_n go_v forth_o to_o see_v the_o daughter_n of_o the_o country_n where_o they_o come_v be_v defile_v

prevent_v infinite_a error_n and_o other_o abomination_n but_o how_o do_v you_o manifest_v that_o the_o papist_n do_v worship_n the_o sign_n of_o christ_n body_n and_o blood_n as_o the_o very_a body_n and_o blood_n itself_o and_o that_o contrary_a to_o their_o own_o sense_n as_o you_o say_v for_o if_o that_o be_v true_a they_o be_v most_o vile_a idolater_n indeed_o miles_n so_o they_o be_v for_o when_o they_o receive_v the_o bread_n they_o see_v it_o feel_v it_o smell_v it_o and_o taste_v it_o to_o be_v bread_n yet_o they_o believe_v in_o the_o heart_n &_o say_v with_o the_o mouth_n that_o

bread_n which_o their_o own_o sense_n tell_v they_o be_v no_o other_o creature_n but_o bread_n do_v they_o adore_v and_o worship_v as_o the_o creator_n as_o god_n &_o as_o christ._n and_o so_o in_o like_a manner_n believe_v they_o the_o wine_n to_o be_v the_o very_a blood_n of_o god_n christ_n which_o be_v shed_v for_o the_o redemption_n of_o the_o church_n which_o horrible_a idolatry_n of_o they_o be_v as_o gross_a as_o to_o worship_n &_o believe_v in_o a_o melt_a or_o carve_v image_n in_o stead_n of_o the_o true_a god_n and_o both_o these_o sort_n of_o idolatry_n be_v not_o only_o

but_o be_v it_o not_o as_o strange_a that_o they_o will_v have_v so_o many_o christ_n at_o one_o and_o the_o same_o time_n for_o after_o the_o word_n of_o consecration_n be_v use_v those_o sign_n be_v
