we_o have_v a_o high_a priest_n which_o be_v over_o the_o house_n of_o god_n let_v we_o draw_v near_o with_o a_o true_a heart_n in_o assurance_n of_o faith_n our_o heart_n be_v pure_a from_o a_o evil_a conscience_n that_o so_o we_o may_v obtain_v mercy_n and_o find_v grace_n in_o due_a time_n and_o here_o again_o o_o faithful_a christian_a two_o reason_n of_o thy_o assurance_n and_o confidence_n draw_v from_o this_o sacrament_n the_o one_o be_v that_o as_o in_o baptism_n it_o be_v to_o thyself_o to_o thy_o own_o body_n that_o the_o water_n be_v apply_v that_o thou_o may_v thereby_o know_v that_o thou_o be_v wash_v in_o the_o blood_n of_o jesus_n christ_n so_o in_o this_o sacrament_n of_o his_o bless_a supper_n it_o be_v to_o thou_o that_o he_o give_v his_o body_n yea_o it_o be_v into_o thy_o own_o hand_n which_o he_o commit_v and_o put_v this_o sacrament_n to_o assure_v thou_o that_o it_o be_v only_o to_o thou_o which_o he_o give_v himself_o and_o not_o to_o other_o who_o thou_o may_v hold_v and_o esteem_v to_o be_v better_a than_o thyself_o in_o which_o regard_n for_o that_o this_o sacrament_n be_v give_v to_o thou_o and_o put_v into_o thy_o own_o hand_n it_o be_v because_o thou_o must_v esteem_v and_o believe_v that_o christ_n body_n be_v thou_o as_o a_o ransom_n which_o be_v give_v into_o thy_o hand_n to_o present_v unto_o god_n wherefore_o doubt_v not_o but_o it_o proper_o belong_v and_o appertain_v unto_o thou_o for_o otherwise_o thou_o do_v annul_v and_o annihilate_v the_o sacrament_n which_o christ_n give_v thou_o and_o thou_o doubte_v that_o he_o be_v true_a in_o give_v it_o to_o thou_o the_o other_o reason_n be_v that_o although_o there_o he_o a_o great_a distance_n betwixt_o jesus_n christ_n &_o we_o as_o betwixt_o the_o saint_n of_o saint_n and_o poor_a and_o miserable_a sinner_n nevertheless_o we_o learn_v by_o this_o sacrament_n that_o we_o be_v incorporate_v with_o christ_n and_o into_o christ_n and_o that_o we_o become_v his_o member_n his_o blood_n and_o his_o bone_n as_o flesh_n which_o we_o eat_v become_v our_o blood_n and_o bone_n but_o to_o the_o member_n and_o body_n right_o belong_v the_o power_n of_o the_o head_n which_o can_v be_v deny_v she_o thou_o may_v then_o infer_v o_o christian_n that_o the_o righteousness_n of_o jesus_n christ_n be_v thy_o own_o and_o that_o it_o proper_o belong_v and_o appertain_v to_o thou_o the_o three_o act_n of_o our_o heart_n in_o the_o participation_n of_o this_o sacrament_n be_v the_o sanctify_a of_o our_o soul_n by_o the_o love_n of_o god_n and_o the_o deny_v and_o renounce_v of_o ourselves_o the_o which_o be_v perform_v by_o three_o thing_n that_o be_v see_v &_o appear_v in_o this_o sacrament_n that_o be_v to_o say_v i._n the_o great_a charity_n and_o love_n of_o god_n towards_o us._n ii_o the_o foulness_n and_o odiousnes_n of_o sin_n iii_o the_o example_n of_o our_o own_o duty_n i_o say_v first_o the_o great_a charity_n &_o love_n of_o god_n for_o my_o
