wisdom_n of_o our_o saviour_n who_o determine_v to_o become_v our_o food_n and_o know_v how_o nature_n abhor_v to_o eat_v human_a flesh_n &_o to_o drink_v man_n blood_n he_o leave_v himself_o under_o the_o form_n of_o bread_n &_o wine_n which_o be_v the_o common_a nourishment_n and_o grateful_a unto_o every_o one_o 2_o consider_v afterward_o the_o infinite_a goodness_n of_o christ_n jesus_n who_o communicate_v himself_o unto_o we_o under_o the_o form_n of_o breed_v and_o wine_n do_v give_v we_o cause_n of_o merit_n for_o if_o christ_n our_o saviour_n shall_v be_v see_v in_o the_o sacred_a host_n our_o merit_n will_v cease_v but_o not_o see_v he_o we_o exercise_v our_o faith_n which_o increase_v in_o we_o by_o multiply_v of_o act_n make_v we_o to_o increase_v likewise_o in_o grace_n &_o for_o to_o merit_v great_a glory_n 3_o consider_v far_o the_o great_a power_n which_o christ_n our_o saviour_n have_v show_v in_o this_o most_o maruai_fw-fr lous_a sacrament_n since_o that_o by_o the_o force_n of_o those_o few_o word_n of_o consecration_n our_o saviour_n come_v into_o the_o host_n their_o altogether_o present_o cease_v the_o substance_n of_o bread_n &_o the_o accident_n which_o we_o see_v and_o touch_v above_o all_o order_n of_o nature_n be_v sustain_v by_o themselves_o 4_o consider_v how_o this_o heavenly_a meat_n be_v not_o convert_v &_o change_v into_o the_o substance_n of_o he_o which_o eat_v it_o as_o natural_o it_o happen_v unto_o other_o meat_n but_o it_o convert_v we_o into_o itself_o wherefore_o because_o it_o be_v a_o divine_a kind_n of_o meat_n it_o likewise_o make_v we_o divine_a and_o the_o son_n of_o god_n 5._o consider_v how_o other_o meat_n only_o sustain_v the_o body_n but_o this_o meat_n nourish_v the_o soul_n in_o spiritual_a life_n moreover_o when_o it_o be_v receive_v it_o be_v all_o receive_v &_o vet_z it_o be_v not_o consume_v nor_o never_o fail_v as_o other_o meat_n do_v &_o one_o receave_v as_o much_o as_o a_o thousand_o the_o fruit._n the_o fruit_n of_o this_o meditation_n be_v to_o remain_v with_o admiration_n that_o god_n move_v with_o pure_a love_n have_v give_v unto_o we_o his_o ungrateful_a creature_n such_o a_o worthy_a sacrament_n and_o to_o be_v confound_v for_o that_o we_o have_v neither_o be_v answerable_a unto_o the_o gift_n nor_o yet_o the_o love_n wherewith_o our_o saviour_n have_v bestow_v it_o upon_o us._n a_o spiritual_a speech_n it_o can_v be_v deny_v my_o lord_n but_o that_o the_o great_a workmanship_n of_o this_o huge_a world_n by_o your_o omnipotency_n produce_v of_o nothing_o be_v a_o marvelous_a thing_n and_o more_o over_o i_o confess_v that_o the_o composition_n of_o man_n be_v a_o most_o rare_a and_o wonderful_a matter_n since_o that_o in_o he_o your_o divine_a wisdom_n have_v so_o include_v all_o other_o creature_n that_o with_o good_a reason_n man_n be_v call_v of_o the_o wise_a and_o learned_a a_o little_a world_n and_o yet_o adam_n be_v not_o god_n and_o the_o world_n be_v neither_o god_n nor_o man_n but_o that_o which_o you_o have_v give_v i_o in_o this_o little_a host_n be_v both_o god_n and_o man_n together_o true_o a_o most_o marvelous_a work_n o_o wonder_n
