but_o the_o same_o succeed_v indifferent_o to_o all_o the_o variety_n of_o form_n that_o be_v produce_v and_o destroy_v but_o now_o here_o come_v a_o strict_a exigence_n of_o a_o substantial_a form_n to_o be_v produce_v dependent_a on_o the_o matter_n and_o yet_o there_o be_v no_o matter_n to_o receive_v it_o but_o the_o supreme_a creator_n must_v be_v summon_v by_o his_o creature_n to_o supply_v

here_o it_o may_v be_v allege_v that_o the_o drift_n of_o all_o these_o proof_n be_v no_o other_o than_o to_o make_v it_o appear_v that_o the_o whole_a business_n of_o transubstantiation_n be_v

we_o all_o know_v that_o the_o substance_n of_o bread_n can_v by_o natural_a mean_n be_v convert_v into_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n but_o by_o the_o illimited_a power_n of_o god_n it_o may_v be_v
