reason_v thus_o but_o the_o word_n be_v in_o the_o word_n speak_v upon_o the_o lord_n bread_n do_v mighty_o signify_v say_v they_o the_o change_n of_o the_o substance_n of_o that_o which_o go_v

word_n speak_v upon_o the_o cup_n be_v of_o the_o same_o might_n and_o power_n both_o in_o work_v and_o signify_v then_o must_v this_o word_n be_v when_v christ_n say_v this_o cup_n be_v the_o new_a

neither_o signify_v any_o such_o change_n of_o the_o cup_n and_o that_o although_o it_o be_v say_v of_o christ_n that_o this_o cup_n be_v the_o new_a testament_n yet_o christ_n mean_v no_o such_o

be_v my_o body_n he_o mean_v no_o more_o any_o such_o change_n of_o the_o bread_n into_o the_o substance_n of_o his_o natural_a body_n than_o he_o mean_v of_o the_o change_n and_o transubstantiation_n of_o the_o cup_n into_o the_o substance_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n and_o if_o thou_o will_v say_v that_o the_o word_n cup_n here_o in_o christ_n word_n do_v not_o signify_v the_o cup_n itself_o

but_o i_o pray_v thou_o by_o the_o way_n here_o note_v two_o thing_n first_o that_o this_o word_n be_v have_v no_o such_o strength_n or_o signification_n in_o the_o lord_n word_n to_o make_v or_o signify_v any_o transubstantiation_n second_o that_o in_o the_o lord_n word_n whereby_o he_o institute_v the_o sacrament_n of_o his_o blood_n he_o use_v a_o figurative_a speech_n how_o vain_a then_o be_v it_o that_o some_o say_v that_o christ_n in_o doctrine_n and_o in_o the_o institution_n of_o the_o sacrament_n use_v no_o figure_n but_o all_o his_o word_n be_v to_o be_v strain_v to_o their_o

thus_o in_o one_o sentence_n speak_v of_o christ_n the_o figure_n must_v help_v we_o twice_o but_o some_o say_v if_o we_o shall_v thus_o admit_v figure_n in_o doctrine_n then_o shall_v all_o the_o
