A18690	A mirrour of Popish subtilties discouering sundry wretched and miserable euasions and shifts which a secret cauilling Papist in the behalfe of one Paul Spence priest, yet liuing and lately prisoner in the castle of Worcester, hath gathered out of Sanders, Bellarmine, and others, for the auoyding and discrediting of sundrie allegations of scriptures and fathers, against the doctrine of the Church of Rome, concerning sacraments, the sacrifice of the masse, transubstantiation, iustification, &c. Written by Rob. Abbot, minister of the word of God in the citie of Worcester. The contents see in the next page after the preface to the reader. Perused and allowed.

bring_v forth_o bread_n and_o wine_n in_o figure_n of_o the_o sacrament_n do_v signify_v that_o christ_n shall_v appoint_v and_o institute_v bread_n and_o wine_n to_o be_v the_o token_n and_o sign_n of_o his_o body_n and_o blood_n and_o that_o christ_n in_o the_o gospel_n do_v fulfil_v the_o same_o so_o say_v s._n hierom_n 26._o hierom_n hieron_n in_o mat._n 26._o christ_n take_v bread_n &_o go_v
