protestant_a disputant_n seem_v to_o have_v go_v a_o little_a beyond_o his_o leader_n have_v he_o express_v himself_o in_o the_o point_n of_o bread_n and_o wine_n what_o become_v of_o it_o whether_o

remain_v too_o crude_a and_o raw_a and_o betray_v the_o speaker_n for_o a_o lutheran_n at_o least_o if_o not_o for_o a_o favourer_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n for_o as_o for_o that_o phrase_n of_o a_o spiritual_a manner_n which_o seem_v to_o give_v season_n and_o moderation_n to_o his_o conclusion_n it_o can_v yield_v he_o but_o small_a relief_n for_o first_o to_o say_v the_o flesh_n of_o christ_n be_v in_o the_o bread_n but_o not_o after_o a_o carnal_a manner_n be_v but_o the_o same_o nonsense_n which_o the_o divine_n of_o rome_n put_v upon_o we_o on_o the_o like_a occasion_n when_o

the_o next_o edition_n of_o the_o book_n of_o bull_n again_o in_o another_o respect_n that_o clause_n of_o a_o spiritual_a manner_n do_v your_o protestant_a disputer_n but_o little_a service_n if_o any_o at_o all_o for_o the_o catholic_n disputant_n contrive_v with_o himself_o how_o to_o seat_v the_o body_n of_o god_n in_o the_o eucharist_n as_o may_v be_v most_o for_o his_o ease_n tell_v we_o that_o he_o be_v there_o as_o spirit_n and_o glorify_a body_n which_o st._n paul_n call_v spiritual_a be_v in_o the_o place_n they_o possess_v so_o then_o the_o one_o tell_v you_o the_o body_n of_o

some_o protestant_n and_o that_o of_o chief_a note_n stick_v not_o to_o say_v that_o the_o word_n of_o consecration_n be_v not_o a_o mere_a trope_n and_o from_o hence_o it_o must_v needs_o follow_v that_o in_o some_o sense_n they_o must_v needs_o be_v take_v literal_o which_o be_v enough_o to_o plead_v authority_n for_o the_o gentleman_n error_n but_o that_o which_o they_o preach_v concern_v a_o
