be_v the_o body_n of_o christ_n neither_o hurt_v nor_o advantage_v our_o cause_n since_o thereto_o be_v only_o require_v that_o bread_n be_v in_o the_o eucharist_n as_o far_o forth_o as_o belong_v

bread_n the_o body_n of_o christ_n and_o thus_o much_o of_o these_o two_o reason_n why_o the_o scripture_n and_o the_o father_n do_v sometime_o call_v the_o eucharist_n bread_n or_o wine_n whereunto_o i_o may_v adjoine_v a_o three_o cause_n in_o that_o the_o scripture_n and_o consequent_o the_o father_n do_v often_o call_v thing_n as_o they_o external_o appear_v to_o the_o eye_n so_o the_o
