before_o they_o eat_v the_o bread_n as_o before_o they_o drink_v the_o wine_n if_o we_o do_v suppose_v they_o do_v receive_v the_o bread_n into_o their_o hand_n before_o those_o word_n be_v pronounce_v by_o our_o saviour_n which_o be_v the_o most_o that_o can_v be_v yet_o they_o can_v not_o eat_v it_o before_o they_o be_v and_o so_o this_o fine_a and_o subtle_a hypothesis_n which_o they_o have_v invent_v to_o deprive_v the_o laiety_n of_o the_o cup_n will_v deprive_v they_o of_o the_o bread_n too_o and_o will_v in_o its_o consequence_n and_o by_o the_o same_o train_n of_o argue_v tend_v to_o take_v away_o the_o whole_a sacrament_n from_o the_o people_n and_o make_v it_o peculiar_a to_o the_o priest_n as_o some_o of_o the_o jewish_a sacrifice_n be_v and_o the_o people_n shall_v not_o at_o all_o partake_v of_o the_o altar_n but_o it_o shall_v be_v reserve_v as_o a_o peculiar_a right_n and_o privilege_n of_o the_o priest_n to_o which_o the_o laity_n ought_v not_o to_o

a_o great_a difference_n and_o distinction_n between_o the_o priest_n and_o the_o laiety_n and_o tend_v more_o to_o preserve_v the_o honour_n and_o esteem_v of_o one_o above_o the_o other_o which_o be_v the_o great_a reason_n they_o themselves_o give_v and_o no_o doubt_n a_o true_a one_o for_o their_o take_v away_o the_o cup_n from_o the_o people_n and_o i_o do_v question_n but_o so_o great_a a_o wit_n and_o so_o eloquent_a a_o artist_n in_o plead_v as_o the_o bishop_n of_o meaux_n be_v who_o can_v say_v a_o great_a deal_n for_o any_o cause_n be_v it_o never_o so_o bad_a may_v with_o as_o good_a ground_n and_o as_o great_a a_o show_n of_o reason_n justify_v if_o he_o please_v the_o take_v away_o the_o whole_a sacrament_n from_o the_o laiety_n as_o the_o cup_n and_o may_v to_o this_o purpose_n improve_v and_o advance_v this_o notion_n of_o the_o apostle_n receive_v both_o kind_n as_o priest_n to_o prove_v the_o laiety_n have_v a_o right_a to_o neither_o and_o may_v take_v off_o the_o necessity_n of_o both_o part_n as_o well_o as_o one_o by_o pretend_v that_o the_o real_a effect_n and_o virtue_n of_o the_o sacrament_n be_v receive_v some_o other_o way_n by_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o the_o mass_n or_o by_o spiritual_a manducation_n or_o by_o some_o thing_n else_o without_o partake_v any_o of_o the_o symbol_n as_o well_o as_o without_o partake_v all_o of_o they_o as_o christ_n have_v appoint_v for_o if_o the_o effect_n and_o virtue_n of_o the_o sacrament_n depend_v upon_o christ_n institution_n than_o both_o be_v necessary_a if_o it_o may_v be_v have_v without_o keep_v to_o that_o than_o neither_o be_v so_o but_o of_o this_o afterward_o when_o we_o come_v to_o examine_v his_o ground_n and_o reason_n i_o shall_v make_v some_o reflection_n upon_o our_o saviour_n
