their_o first_o pretence_n be_v from_o the_o nature_n of_o a_o banquet_n christ_n ordain_v this_o for_o a_o banquet_n whereat_o we_o be_v to_o act_v the_o part_n of_o the_o guest_n of_o christ_n

fellowship_n with_o christ_n to_o sit_v thereat_o whereby_o christ_n will_v represent_v unto_o we_o our_o banquet_n in_o heaven_n our_o answer_n we_o acknowledge_v this_o sacrament_n to_o be_v the_o most_o gracious_a banquet_n that_o ever_o be_v ordain_v for_o the_o son_n of_o man_n but_o how_o as_o a_o bodily_a banquet_n trow_v you_o no_o for_o if_o our_o saviour_n have_v mean_v to_o have_v furnish_v out_o a_o bodily_a banquet_n he_o will_v have_v be_v more_o plentiful_a in_o other_o variety_n than_o in_o bread_n and_o wine_n but_o it_o be_v a_o mystical_a banquet_n for_o the_o

sed_fw-la per_fw-la fidem_fw-la that_o be_v rather_o with_o the_o mind_n than_o with_o the_o mouth_n as_o the_o father_n speak_v and_o therefore_o you_o be_v not_o to_o require_v or_o expect_v

then_o can_v you_o exact_v of_o we_o the_o manner_n of_o sit_v and_o for_o any_o of_o you_o so_o to_o speak_v of_o familiarity_n and_o hold_v it_o undecent_a for_o adopt_a coheires_n with_o christ_n to_o kneel_v as_o the_o receive_n of_o this_o sacrament_n i_o think_v it_o can_v hardly_o be_v hear_v even_o of_o some_o of_o your_o own_o fellowship_n without_o some_o horror_n of_o mind_n for_o

we_o the_o person_n of_o suitor_n &_o so_o we_o humble_v our_o soul_n in_o prayer_n but_o at_o this_o banquet_n we_o represent_v the_o person_n of_o coheires_n as_o we_o shall_v be_v at_o the_o great_a supper_n in_o heaven_n and_o now_o it_o be_v our_o office_n to_o give_v resemblance_n hereof_o our_o answer_n we_o have_v indeed_o such_o kind_n of_o similitude_n in_o scripture_n to_o
