in_o you_o joh._n 6.54_o and_o take_v the_o chalice_n he_o give_v thanks_o and_o give_v to_o they_o say_v drink_v you_o all_o of_o this_o mat._n 26.27_o also_o in_o like_a manner_n the_o chalice_n after_o he_o have_v sup_v say_v this_o chalice_n be_v the_o new_a testament_n in_o my_o blood_n this_o do_v you_o as_o often_o as_o you_o shall_v drink_v in_o remembrance_n of_o i_o 1_o cor._n 11.25_o but_o none_o of_o these_o place_n right_o understand_v nor_o any_o other_o do_v prove_v what_o the_o protestant_n pretend_v to_o particular_o to_o the_o first_o of_o these_o place_n i_o answer_v that_o see_v the_o protestant_n do_v general_o interpret_v this_o chapter_n of_o s._n john_n not_o of_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o eucharist_n but_o only_o of_o believe_v in_o christ_n it_o be_v no_o objection_n for_o they_o but_o because_o most_o catholic_n divine_n do_v interpret_v it_o of_o the_o bless_a sacrament_n it_o be_v a_o objection_n against_o we_o to_o which_o therefore_o i_o further_o answer_v first_o that_o all_o word_n of_o scripture_n that_o in_o their_o form_n seem_v to_o import_v a_o precept_n do_v not_o so_o indeed_o as_o where_o our_o saviour_n say_v to_o his_o apostle_n that_o they_o ought_v to_o wash_v one_o another_o foot_n joh._n 13.14_o yet_o no_o man_n ever_o hold_v it_o for_o a_o matter_n of_o necessity_n but_o suppose_v for_o the_o present_a that_o it_o include_v a_o precept_n i_o further_a answer_n that_o as_o we_o distinguish_v in_o the_o sacrament_n the_o substance_n and_o the_o manner_n the_o substance_n be_v to_o receive_v christ_n the_o manner_n to_o receive_v he_o in_o both_o kind_n by_o formal_a eat_n and_o drink_v so_o the_o same_o distinction_n be_v to_o be_v make_v in_o our_o saviour_n precept_n about_o this_o sacrament_n for_o howsoever_o his_o word_n may_v sound_v of_o the_o manner_n of_o receive_v in_o both_o kind_n yet_o his_o intention_n be_v to_o command_v no_o more_o than_o the_o substance_n to_o wit_n that_o we_o real_o receive_v his_o body_n and_o blood_n which_o may_v be_v do_v under_o one_o kind_n the_o truth_n whereof_o will_v appear_v if_o we_o consider_v first_o the_o occasion_n of_o the_o word_n object_v which_o be_v the_o incredulity_n of_o the_o capernaite_n who_o doubt_n be_v not_o whether_o the_o sacrament_n be_v to_o be_v give_v in_o one_o or_o both_o kind_n but_o as_o protestant_n still_o doubt_v whether_o he_o can_v give_v we_o his_o flesh_n to_o eat_v second_o the_o manner_n of_o his_o speech_n which_o be_v not_o by_o make_v mention_n of_o any_o kind_n at_o all_o in_o the_o say_a word_n but_o only_o of_o the_o thing_n themselves_o for_o he_o do_v not_o say_v unless_o you_o eat_v the_o bread_n and_o drink_v the_o wine_n you_o have_v no_o life_n but_o unless_o you_o eat_v the_o flesh_n and_o drink_v the_o blood_n both_o which_o be_v equal_o contain_v under_o either_o bread_n or_o wine_n so_o that_o if_o a_o man_n receive_v the_o form_n of_o bread_n only_o or_o of_o wine_n only_o he_o do_v therein_o both_o eat_v and_o drink_v the_o flesh_n and_o blood_n of_o christ._n and_o in_o other_o place_n of_o this_o chapter_n where_o he_o make_v mention_n of_o one_o kind_n it_o be_v of_o bread_n only_o and_o not_o at_o all_o of_o wine_n so_o that_o this_o place_n be_v of_o no_o force_n for_o the_o form_n of_o wine_n unless_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n be_v separate_v and_o that_o receive_v the_o form_n of_o bread_n we_o receive_v the_o body_n only_o and_o of_o wine_n the_o blood_n only_o which_o must_v suppose_v christ_n still_o dead_a which_o be_v most_o impious_a and_o impossible_a §_o 5._o and_o if_o any_o think_v that_o because_o it_o be_v say_v unless_o you_o drink_v therefore_o christ_n must_v be_v receive_v under_o a_o form_n that_o may_v be_v drink_v as_o well_o as_o eat_v or_o else_o it_o be_v not_o drink_v his_o blood_n but_o eat_v his_o blood_n as_o well_o as_o his_o body_n i_o answer_v it_o be_v call_v eat_v and_o drink_v not_o so_o much_o in_o regard_n of_o the_o action_n as_o the_o subject_n so_o that_o flesh_n be_v the_o usual_a subject_n of_o eat_v when_o the_o sacrament_n be_v call_v flesh_n the_o action_n be_v call_v eat_v and_o blood_n be_v the_o usual_a subject_n of_o drink_v when_o there_o be_v mention_n of_o receive_v the_o blood_n the_o action_n be_v call_v drink_v and_o we_o be_v not_o bind_v to_o receive_v he_o in_o a_o drinkable_a form_n because_o we_o be_v bid_v to_o drink_v his_o blood_n but_o we_o may_v be_v say_v to_o drink_v because_o we_o receive_v that_o which_o be_v in_o its_o nature_n drinkable_a to_o wit_n blood_n which_o we_o do_v when_o we_o receive_v the_o body_n and_o if_o this_o will_v not_o serve_v the_o turn_n they_o may_v further_o argue_v against_o we_o that_o if_o we_o swallow_v the_o host_n whole_a we_o do_v not_o eat_v it_o eat_v imply_v chew_v more_o or_o less_o and_o so_o do_v not_o fulfil_v the_o precept_n of_o eat_v the_o flesh_n and_o we_o may_v argue_v in_o like_a manner_n against_o they_o that_o if_o they_o do_v not_o take_v wine_n enough_o to_o make_v a_o draught_n they_o do_v not_o drink_v but_o only_o taste_v or_o sip_v thereof_o and_o therein_o also_o do_v not_o fulfil_v that_o which_o they_o think_v they_o be_v here_o command_v but_o as_o a_o protestant_n i_o suppose_v if_o the_o bread_n and_o wine_n shall_v be_v so_o mix_v together_o in_o a_o cup_n that_o both_o may_v be_v drink_v together_o or_o else_o eat_v with_o a_o spoon_n or_o in_o the_o manner_n of_o a_o moist_a piece_n of_o past_a or_o swallow_v like_o a_o pill_n will_v believe_v that_o he_o receive_v in_o both_o kind_n and_o fulfil_v this_o in_o his_o opinion_n precept_n of_o drink_v the_o blood_n so_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n be_v join_v together_o in_o either_o kind_n to_o we_o that_o believe_v transubstantiation_n we_o receive_v both_o when_o we_o receive_v either_o kind_n which_o act_n of_o receive_v with_o relation_n to_o the_o flesh_n may_v be_v call_v eat_v to_o the_o blood_n drinking_z yea_o though_o it_o shall_v be_v take_v in_o such_o a_o manner_n as_o strict_o speak_v shall_v be_v neither_o eat_v nor_o drink_v i_o add_v moreover_o with_o relation_n to_o they_o that_o do_v not_o believe_v transubstantiation_n that_o the_o conjunctive_a particle_n and_o do_v frequent_o signify_v disjunctive_o that_o be_v or_o for_o example_n

of_o our_o lord_n unworthy_o in_o like_a manner_n those_o word_n except_o you_o eat_v the_o flesh_n and_o drink_v the_o blood_n if_o they_o be_v take_v for_o eat_v and_o drink_v under_o the_o several_a form_n of_o bread_n and_o wine_n be_v to_o be_v understand_v disjunctive_o thus_o except_o you_o eat_v the_o flesh_n or_o drink_v the_o blood_n of_o the_o son_n of_o man_n you_o shall_v not_o have_v life_n in_o you_o which_o disjunctive_a sense_n be_v prove_v to_o be_v the_o sense_n intend_v in_o this_o place_n because_o else_o christ_n shall_v contradict_v himself_o for_o he_o

second_o text_n urge_v for_o communion_n in_o both_o kind_n be_v drink_v you_o all_o of_o this_o mat._n 26.27_o which_o be_v right_o understand_v will_v appear_v to_o be_v speak_v neither_o to_o all_o

life_n but_o that_o a_o man_n want_v mean_n of_o sacred_a communion_n may_v by_o other_o mean_n preserve_v himself_o in_o the_o state_n of_o grace_n and_o though_o we_o shall_v suppose_v that_o

the_o precept_n of_o both_o kind_n if_o christ_n give_v any_o do_v bind_v whether_o both_o kind_n be_v necessary_a for_o the_o maintenance_n of_o man_n soul_n in_o grace_n or_o no_o but_o the_o

which_o see_v one_o kind_n be_v sufficient_a the_o institution_n of_o both_o kind_n do_v not_o oblige_v we_o to_o the_o use_n of_o both_o §_o 3._o now_o that_o communion_n in_o one_o kind_n be_v

whole_a and_o entire_a according_a to_o body_n soul_n blood_n and_o his_o infinite_a person_n be_v abundant_o sufficient_a for_o the_o refection_n of_o the_o soul_n yea_o no_o less_o than_o

which_o imply_v all_o these_o particular_n it_o be_v impossible_a he_o shall_v be_v there_o otherwise_o as_o s._n paul_n say_v christ_n rise_v again_o from_o the_o dead_a now_o die_v no_o more_o

for_o ever_o and_o this_o sure_o he_o will_v not_o have_v say_v if_o receive_v in_o both_o kind_n have_v be_v necessary_a §_o 4._o but_o because_o protestant_n deny_v transubstantiation_n i_o will_v

in_o one_o kind_n be_v full_a entire_a and_o complete_a in_o substance_n and_o that_o by_o participation_n thereof_o prepare_a conscience_n do_v receive_v the_o benefit_n of_o christ_n death_n and_o passion_n neither_o do_v it_o hereupon_o follow_v that_o because_o the_o sacrament_n be_v essential_o and_o entire_o contain_v under_o either_o kind_n therefore_o the_o priest_n receive_v underboth_o receive_v two_o sacrament_n for_o be_v receive_v both_o at_o once_o they_o make_v but_o one_o as_o be_v ordain_v to_o one_o refection_n signify_v one_o thing_n and_o produce_v one_o effect_n even_o

and_o the_o reason_n why_o priest_n receive_v under_o both_o kind_n be_v because_o they_o offer_v up_o a_o sacrifice_n represent_v the_o sacrifice_n of_o christ_n upon_o the_o cross_n which_o be_v

prove_v that_o whole_a christ_n and_o the_o true_a essence_n and_o part_n of_o the_o sacrament_n be_v under_o either_o kind_n it_o follow_v that_o in_o distribute_v it_o in_o one_o kind_n only_o there_o be_v no_o irreverence_n offer_v to_o the_o sacrament_n it_o not_o be_v give_v as_o protestant_n think_v half_a or_o maim_a but_o essential_o and_o entire_o whole_a nor_o be_v any_o injury_n
