water purple wolle and ysope and sprynckled bothe the boke all the people sayinge this is the bloud of the testameÌ„t which God hathe appointed vnto you Moreouer he sprinckled the tabernacle with bloud also and all the ministringe vessels And almost al thynges are by the lawe purged with bloud wyth out sheadynge of bloude is no remyssyon It is nede then that the similytude of heauenly thynges be puryfyed with such thinges but that the heauenly thinges them selues be puryfyed with better sacrifyces then are those For Christe is not entred into the holy places that are made with handes which are symilitudes of true thinges but is entred into very heauen for to appeare nowe in the syght of god for vs not to offer hymself often as the hye prest entreth into the holy place euery yeare wyth straunge bloude for them muste he haue often suffered sence the worlde began But nowe in the ende of the worlde hathe he appeared once to put synne to flyght by the offeringe vp of hym selfe And as it
