to_o we_o under_o the_o form_n of_o bread_n be_v to_o the_o end_n we_o understand_v that_o it_o be_v give_v to_o live_a man_n &_o not_o to_o deadman_n to_o nourish_v the_o grace_n of_o god_n and_o to_o increase_v it_o the_o second_o thing_n be_v that_o we_o be_v altogether_o fast_v that_o be_v at_o the_o least_o from_o midnight_n forward_o we_o have_v take_v nothing_o no_o not_o somuch_o as_o

the_o meat_n of_o soul_n m_o it_o work_v that_o effect_n which_o corporal_a meat_n work_v in_o body_n &_o therefore_o it_o be_v give_v to_o we_o in_o form_n of_o bread_n for_o like_a as_o bread_n

not_o only_o for_o the_o live_n but_o also_o for_o the_o dead_a that_o be_v in_o purgatory_n you_o must_v understand_v that_o in_o the_o old_a testament_n they_o offer_v unto_o god_n many_o

effect_n work_v it_o as_o the_o memorial_n and_o pledge_n of_o the_o love_n of_o our_o lord_n towards_o we_o m_o it_o make_v we_o mindful_a of_o so_o great_a a_o benefit_n and_o in_o flame_v we_o to_o love_v he_o again_o that_o have_v love_v we_o so_o much_o and_o therefore_o like_a as_o god_n in_o the_o old_a testament_n will_v have_v the_o jew_n not_o only_o to_o eat_v manna_n which_o he_o send_v
