so_o eat_v and_o drink_v unworthy_o and_o indeed_o beside_o these_o qualification_n of_o a_o worthy_a communicant_a there_o be_v other_o without_o which_o if_o we_o come_v to_o the_o sacrament_n we_o

that_o our_o sense_n be_v not_o to_o be_v use_v in_o matter_n of_o faith_n i_o think_v he_o speak_v very_o rash_a when_o even_o christ_n appeal_v to_o the_o sense_n of_o his_o apostle_n to_o confirm_v

if_o therefore_o we_o come_v without_o faith_n we_o be_v unworthy_a of_o this_o ordinance_n yea_o we_o evacuate_v it_o as_o to_o ourselves_o but_o then_o here_o let_v we_o not_o be_v mistake_v in_o
