come_v down_o from_o heaven_n whereof_o man_n must_v eat_v and_o drink_v to_o the_o end_n that_o they_o may_v live_v by_o christ_n john_n 6_o 51._o i_o be_o that_o live_a bread_n which_o come_v down_o

therefore_o christ_n have_v flesh_n and_o blood_n to_o wit_n heavenly_a and_o spiritual_a even_o from_o the_o beginning_n on_o which_o the_o saint_n in_o all_o age_n do_v feed_v even_o from_o the_o
