acknowledge_v myself_o unfaigned_o to_o be_v of_o the_o number_n of_o they_o that_o hope_v to_o have_v the_o favour_n of_o god_n and_o to_o be_v save_v by_o the_o mercy_n and_o passion_n of_o christ_n only_o the_o word_n of_o god_n teach_v that_o sacrament_n 11._o be_v as_o it_o be_v seal_n to_o confirm_v the_o truth_n of_o god_n promise_n and_o to_o strengthen_v our_o faith_n therefore_o by_o this_o seal_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n we_o assure_v ourselves_o that_o we_o be_v partaker_n of_o all_o y_z e_z legacy_n which_o christ_n our_o saviour_n in_o his_o last_o will_n bequeath_v to_o we_o that_o be_v that_o his_o body_n be_v break_v upon_o the_o cross_n for_o our_o redemption_n &_o his_o blood_n shed_v for_o the_o remission_n of_o our_o sin_n the_o scripture_n teach_v 17._o that_o

whatsoever_o be_v he_o by_o the_o truth_n of_o his_o promise_n be_v we_o also_o the_o word_n of_o god_n teach_v that_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n be_v a_o link_n of_o unity_n that_o knit_v we_o together_o as_o member_n of_o one_o mystical_a body_n and_o therefore_o that_o we_o ought_v to_o be_v join_v in_o mutual_a love_n &_o charity_n among_o ourselves_o and_o that_o it_o be_v

that_o we_o may_v be_v worthy_a guest_n for_o that_o bless_a table_n wherefore_o i_o think_v it_o necessary_a in_o a_o word_n or_o two_o to_o teach_v you_o how_o christian_n shall_v prepare_v

whether_o those_o thing_n be_v in_o we_o which_o the_o worthy_a guest_n of_o that_o table_n shall_v have_v first_o therefore_o we_o must_v look_v unfaigned_o into_o ourselves_o whether_o we_o have_v a_o appetite_n or_o desire_v to_o eat_v of_o that_o bless_a food_n for_o a_o loathe_a stomach_n never_o perfect_o dige_v any_o meat_n that_o it_o receive_v but_o turn_v it_o to_o the_o hurt_n of_o the_o body_n this_o appetite_n or_o desire_n can_v be_v in_o we_o unless_o it_o be_v wrought_v by_o the_o sharp_a sauce_n of_o severe_a repentance_n for_o our_o sin_n which_o we_o shall_v the_o better_o prepare_v if_o we_o examine_v ourselves_o by_o the_o perfect_a rule_n of_o god_n justice_n in_o his_o law_n and_o consider_v how_o far_o we_o be_v from_o the_o same_o &_o what_o danger_n

of_o god_n we_o shall_v employ_v all_o the_o power_n of_o our_o body_n and_o all_o our_o worldly_a gift_n to_o the_o same_o end_n we_o shall_v do_v nothing_o to_o any_o other_o man_n which_o we_o will_v not_o willing_o be_v content_a shall_v be_v do_v unto_o us._n if_o we_o examine_v ourselves_o by_o this_o rule_n we_o shall_v see_v we_o be_v so_o far_o from_o that_o we_o shall_v be_v that_o almost_o we_o have_v not_o one_o branch_n thereof_o in_o we_o which_o will_v more_o evident_o appear_v if_o we_o will_v try_v ourselves_o by_o every_o particular_a commandment_n right_o and_o true_o understand_v see_v then_o we_o be_v so_o far_o from_o the_o justice_n of_o god_n law_n the_o curse_n thereof_o must_v needs_o be_v due_a unto_o us._n 10._o for_o god_n say_v curse_v be_v he_o whosoever_o keep_v not_o all_o thing_n write_v in_o the_o book_n of_o his_o law_n in_o this_o manner_n if_o we_o examine_v ourselves_o sincere_o we_o shall_v thorough_o know_v what_o we_o be_v in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n as_o well_o by_o the_o corruption_n of_o our_o nature_n as_o by_o the_o course_n of_o our_o evil_a and_o naughty_a life_n we_o shall_v have_v sense_n of_o our_o own_o sin_n we_o shall_v hate_v and_o detest_v it_o we_o shall_v from_o the_o bottom_n of_o our_o heart_n be_v sorry_a for_o it_o with_o tremble_a mind_n we_o shall_v fear_v the_o heavy_a judgement_n of_o god_n against_o we_o and_o so_o will_v be_v stir_v up_o in_o we_o that_o godly_a appetite_n &_o greedy_a desire_n to_o eat_v of_o that_o spiritual_a meat_n which_o only_o can_v satisfy_v our_o trouble_a

mouth_n to_o eat_v nor_o strength_n of_o stomach_n to_o digest_v 54._o a_o true_a and_o strong_a christian_a faith_n be_v the_o mouth_n of_o the_o soul_n and_o the_o power_n wherewith_o we_o do_v receive_v and_o digest_v christ_n jesus_n crucify_v as_o the_o food_n of_o our_o salvation_n we_o must_v look_v therefore_o to_o ourselves_o first_o whether_o we_o know_v and_o understand_v the_o

we_o feel_v in_o our_o heart_n a_o strong_a persuasion_n that_o we_o also_o through_o the_o merciful_a promise_n of_o god_n be_v partaker_n of_o the_o same_o work_n of_o our_o redemption_n 11._o for_o a_o true_a christian_a must_v not_o only_o have_v a_o general_a knowledge_n but_o also_o by_o a_o firm_a faith_n he_o must_v have_v a_o particular_a application_n of_o the_o same_o to_o himself_o
