they_o do_v she_o eat_v the_o body_n of_o christ_n how_o absurd_a and_o impious_a be_v it_o to_o imagine_v it_o remain_v therefore_o that_o the_o substance_n of_o the_o bread_n do_v still_o continue_v if_o the_o bread_n after_o consecration_n be_v burn_v to_o ash_n and_o the_o wine_n cast_v into_o the_o fire_n whence_o come_v the_o ash_n and_o whence_o be_v the_o smoke_n &_o hiz_v sure_o they_o
