the_o translator_n choose_v this_o subject_n of_o communion_n in_o one_o kind_n though_o he_o say_v it_o be_v a_o point_n peradventure_o of_o high_a concern_n than_o any_o other_o now_o in_o debate_n between_o papist_n and_o protestant_n this_o be_v the_o main_a stone_n of_o offence_n and_o rock_n of_o scandal_n and_o it_o have_v be_v always_o regard_v since_o the_o reformation_n as_o a_o mighty_a eyesore_n and_o allege_v as_o one_o sufficient_a cause_n of_o a_o voluntary_a departure_n and_o separation_n from_o the_o pre-existent_a church_n of_o rome_n when_o this_o pre-existent_a church_n of_o rome_n fall_v into_o her_o corrupt_a terrestrial_a and_o unchristian_a state_n among_o other_o corruption_n this_o be_v one_o that_o give_v just_a offence_n and_o be_v together_o with_o many_o more_o the_o cause_n of_o our_o separate_n from_o it_o that_o it_o give_v the_o eucharist_n but_o in_o one_o kind_n contrary_a to_o christ_n institution_n and_o take_v away_o the_o cup_n of_o christ_n precious_a blood_n from_o the_o people_n but_o yet_o this_o point_n of_o high_a concern_n be_v in_o the_o judgement_n of_o the_o translator_n but_o a_o bare_a ceremony_n and_o upon_o the_o whole_a matter_n the_o difference_n herein_o between_o the_o church_n of_o england_n and_o the_o roman_a seem_v to_o he_o reducible_a in_o great_a measure_n to_o mere_a form_n and_o ceremony_n if_o it_o be_v than_o i_o hope_v it_o may_v be_v easy_o compromize_v and_o agree_v for_o i_o assure_v he_o i_o be_o as_o little_a as_o he_o for_o make_v wide_a division_n already_o too_o great_a nor_o do_v i_o approve_v of_o the_o spirit_n of_o those_o who_o tear_n christ_n seamless_a garment_n for_o a_o mere_a form_n and_o ceremony_n but_o we_o who_o be_v sometime_o think_v fit_a to_o be_v call_v heretic_n and_o to_o be_v censure_v and_o anathematise_v as_o differ_v in_o essential_a matter_n from_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n at_o other_o time_n be_v make_v such_o good_a friend_n to_o it_o that_o we_o differ_v but_o very_o little_a and_o there_o be_v nothing_o but_o form_n and_o ceremony_n between_o we_o but_o what_o be_v to_o accommodate_v this_o matter_n and_o reconcile_v this_o difference_n between_o the_o two_o church_n why_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o real_a presence_n in_o which_o both_o church_n he_o say_v agree_v that_o christ_n our_o saviour_n be_v true_o real_o whole_o yea_o and_o substantial_o present_a in_o the_o sacrament_n this_o be_v to_o close_v up_o the_o difference_n not_o only_o of_o communion_n in_o one_o kind_n but_o of_o the_o adoration_n of_o the_o sacrament_n and_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o mass_n too_o in_o the_o translatour_n judgement_n but_o do_v the_o church_n of_o england_n then_o agree_v with_o the_o roman_a in_o the_o real_a presence_n of_o christ_n natural_a body_n and_o blood_n in_o the_o sacrament_n do_v it_o not_o express_o say_v the_o contrary_a namely_o that_o the_o natural_a body_n and_o blood_n of_o our_o saviour_n christ_n be_v in_o heaven_n and_o not_o here_o and_o that_o it_o be_v against_o the_o truth_n of_o christ_n natural_a body_n to_o be_v at_o one_o time_n in_o more_o place_n than_o one_o communion_n one_o rubric_n after_o office_n of_o communion_n so_o that_o though_o christ_n be_v real_o present_a by_o his_o spirit_n and_o the_o real_a virtue_n and_o efficacy_n of_o his_o body_n and_o blood_n be_v give_v in_o the_o sacrament_n yet_o his_o natutural_a body_n be_v by_o no_o mean_n present_v there_o either_o by_o transubstantiation_n or_o by_o any_o other_o way_n unintelligible_a to_o we_o as_o the_o translator_n will_v insinuate_v so_o that_o all_o those_o consequence_n which_o he_o or_o other_o will_v willing_o draw_v from_o the_o real_a presence_n of_o christ_n natural_a body_n in_o the_o sacrament_n as_o believe_v by_o we_o do_v fall_n to_o the_o ground_n and_o i_o doubt_v he_o or_o i_o shall_v never_o be_v so_o happy_a as_o to_o make_v up_o this_o great_a breach_n between_o the_o two_o church_n however_o willing_a we_o may_v be_v to_o do_v it_o but_o instead_o of_o make_v a_o reconciliation_n between_o they_o which_o be_v impossible_a as_o long_o as_o the_o doctrine_n of_o each_o of_o they_o stand_v as_o they_o do_v i_o shall_v endeavour_v to_o defend_v that_o article_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n which_o not_o

be_v essential_a to_o the_o eucharist_n but_o the_o receive_v both_o of_o they_o be_v because_o they_o be_v both_o command_v and_o institute_v and_o both_o of_o they_o be_v the_o matter_n of_o that_o

unwilling_a to_o see_v it_o the_o second_o principle_n of_o de_fw-fr meaux_n be_v that_o to_o distinguish_v what_o appertain_v or_o do_v not_o appertain_v to_o the_o substance_n of_o a_o sacrament_n we_o must_v regard_v the_o essential_a effect_n of_o that_o sacrament_n but_o must_v we_o regard_v nothing_o else_o must_v we_o not_o regard_v the_o outward_a part_n as_o well_o as_o the_o inward_a and_o do_v not_o that_o appertain_v to_o the_o substance_n of_o a_o sacrament_n as_o well_o as_o the_o other_o i_o confess_v the_o word_n substance_n which_o the_o meaux_n use_n be_v equivocal_a and_o

signify_v and_o it_o be_v not_o only_o one_o but_o both_o of_o these_o that_o do_v appertain_v to_o the_o substance_n of_o the_o sacrament_n or_o to_o speak_v more_o clear_o and_o plain_o that_o make_v it_o a_o sacrament_n if_o the_o meaux_n understand_v nothing_o else_o by_o the_o substance_n of_o the_o sacrament_n but_o the_o essential_a effect_n of_o it_o than_o his_o word_n be_v confuse_v

sacrament_n we_o must_v regard_v the_o essential_a effect_n of_o the_o sacrament_n which_o though_o it_o have_v not_o be_v sense_n yet_o he_o have_v better_a tell_v we_o his_o meaning_n by_o it_o but_o sure_o there_o be_v something_o else_o that_o do_v plain_o belong_v to_o the_o substance_n of_o the_o sacrament_n beside_o the_o essential_a effect_n it_o be_v strange_a that_o the_o meaux_n
