they_o a_o real_a conversion_n into_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n moreover_o these_o word_n of_o transubstantiation_n do_v bring_v with_o they_o three_o absurditye_n the_o first_o be_v that_o if_o the_o bread_n and_o wine_n shall_v be_v turn_v into_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o jesus_n christ_n there_o shall_v be_v no_o sign_n in_o the_o supper_n and_o so_o there_o shall_v be_v no_o sacrament_n which_o can_v be_v without_o a_o visible_a sign_n the_o second_o be_v that_o the_o blood_n of_o jesus_n christ_n shall_v be_v separate_v from_o his_o body_n which_o be_v also_o absurd_a and_o impossible_a the_o third_o that_o jesus_n christ_n shall_v have_v a_o body_n infinite_a and_o by_o consequent_a he_o shall_v not_o be_v true_a man_n nor_o true_o ascend_v into_o heaven_n which_o shall_v overthrow_v the_o principal_a article_n of_o our_o faith_n and_o it_o be_v to_o no_o purpose_n to_o object_v here_o that_o he_o have_v a_o gloryfy_v body_n by_o which_o he_o may_v be_v at_o one_o time_n in_o diverse_a place_n together_o for_o this_o reply_n be_v vain_a because_o he_o have_v no_o such_o body_n when_o as_o he_o institute_v the_o supper_n and_o beside_o his_o glorification_n do_v not_o any_o way_n diminish_v the_o nature_n of_o a_o true_a body_n but_o only_o do_v make_v he_o infinite_a as_o a_o ancient_a doctor_n have_v very_o well_o say_v and_o wherefore_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o act_n of_o the_o apostle_n that_o the_o heaven_n shall_v contain_v he_o until_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n when_o he_o shall_v visible_o descend_v as_o he_o be_v see_v to_o ascend_v the_o four_o be_v that_o infidel_n and_o hypocrite_n come_v to_o the_o lord_n supper_n shall_v true_o participate_v the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n and_o so_o it_o must_v needs_o follow_v that_o god_n and_o the_o devil_n shall_v be_v lodge_v together_o and_o beside_o these_o absurdity_n which_o do_v beat_v down_o transubstantiation_n experience_n itself_o be_v against_o it_o we_o may_v perceive_v the_o bread_n and_o wine_n to_o consume_v away_o be_v long_a time_n keep_v for_o this_o do_v show_v most_o plain_o that_o the_o substance_n of_o they_o be_v not_o change_v as_o also_o these_o word_n be_v well_o understand_v do_v overthrow_n transubstantiation_n so_o they_o do_v likewise_o confute_v their_o cousin_n germane_a which_o be_v consubstantiation_n that_o be_v those_o which_o do_v affirm_v that_o the_o body_n of_o jesus_n christ_n be_v every_o where_n it_o must_v needs_o be_v in_o the_o bread_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n that_o it_o be_v either_o above_o or_o below_o or_o at_o one_o side_n or_o within_o as_o his_o blood_n be_v in_o the_o wine_n the_o word_n of_o jesus_n christ_n can_v likewise_o bear_v this_o sense_n for_o if_o they_o will_v so_o understand_v they_o jesus_n christ_n must_v have_v say_v my_o body_n shall_v be_v with_o this_o bread_n and_o my_o blood_n with_o this_o wine_n moreover_o this_o shall_v be_v to_o fall_v to_o a_o fleshly_a and_o carnal_a eat_n which_o cause_n we_o to_o fall_v into_o the_o three_o last_o absurdity_n of_o transubstantiation_n when_o jesus_n christ_n say_v to_o the_o capernaite_n who_o do_v imagine_v a_o carnal_a eat_n because_o he_o have_v say_v that_o unless_o one_o eat_v his_o flesh_n and_o drink_v his_o blood_n that_o he_o can_v have_v eternal_a life_n he_o say_v unto_o they_o in_o the_o verse_n three_o score_n and_o three_o expound_v himself_o it_o be_v the_o spirit_n that_o quicken_v the_o flesh_n profit_v nothing_o the_o word_n that_o i_o speak_v un-you_a be_v spirit_n and_o life_n be_v not_o this_o place_n clear_a enough_o to_o show_v that_o hese_fw-mi word_n must_v be_v understand_v spiritual_o and_o not_o carnallye_o and_o although_o that_o there_o he_o speak_v not_o of_o a_o sacramental_a eat_n but_o of_o that_o which_o be_v make_v by_o the_o word_n of_o god_n which_o be_v receive_v by_o faith_n notwithstanding_o it_o may_v very_o well_o impart_v thus_o much_o because_o it_o be_v the_o same_o kind_n of_o eat_v in_o substance_n so_o that_o whatsoever_o be_v speak_v of_o the_o one_o do_v belong_v also_o to_o the_o other_o and_o see_v that_o question_n be_v make_v of_o the_o nourishment_n of_o the_o soul_n which_o be_v spiritual_a and_o that_o the_o food_n thereof_o be_v spiritual_a it_o must_v necessary_o follow_v that_o the_o eat_n must_v be_v also_o spiritual_a and_o not_o gross_a and_o carnal_a and_o to_o be_v so_o it_o can_v otherwise_o be_v but_o that_o the_o bread_n and_o wine_n shall_v be_v nothing_o else_o but_o sign_n only_o of_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n and_o that_o they_o do_v always_o remain_v bread_n and_o wine_n after_o the_o word_n of_o consecration_n and_o after_o the_o partake_n thereof_o as_o it_o be_v easy_a by_o saint_n paul_n 10._o 1_o cor._n 10._o where_o he_o say_v the_o cup_n of_o blessing_n which_o we_o bless_v be_v it_o not_o the_o communion_n of_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n the_o bread_n which_o we_o break_v be_v it_o not_o the_o communion_n of_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n it_o be_v not_o say_v that_o the_o cup_n of_o blessing_n which_o one_o bless_v be_v the_o blood_n of_o christ_n real_o &_o that_o the_o bread_n which_o we_o break_v be_v the_o proper_a and_o substantial_a body_n of_o christ_n but_o that_o it_o be_v the_o communion_n of_o the_o one_o and_o of_o the_o other_o by_o the_o which_o word_n he_o declare_v plain_o that_o the_o bread_n and_o the_o wine_n do_v always_o remain_v bread_n and_o wine_n but_o they_o be_v certain_a and_o infallible_a pledge_n of_o that_o

yet_o nevertheless_o we_o do_v participate_v of_o the_o same_o as_o true_o as_o if_o we_o shall_v eat_v his_o flesh_n and_o drink_v his_o blood_n after_o a_o carnal_a manner_n let_v we_o add_v that_o
