and_o in_o the_o supper_n whereby_o they_o be_v to_o prepare_v themselves_o thereunto_o it_o be_v necessary_a that_o the_o first_o part_n be_v a_o earnest_a accusation_n of_o the_o former_a disorder_a

the_o which_o must_v be_v often_o time_n inculcate_v and_o bring_v to_o mind_n in_o the_o supper_n of_o the_o lord_n that_o the_o church_n of_o christ_n may_v understand_v that_o those_o thing_n

that_o which_o he_o do_v that_o be_v to_o say_v how_o he_o institute_v this_o ceremonial_a supper_n if_o it_o may_v so_o be_v call_v and_o how_o the_o son_n of_o god_n himself_o have_v distribute_v

that_o they_o may_v be_v confirm_v by_o a_o witness_n and_o that_o the_o faithful_a may_v understand_v what_o it_o be_v that_o the_o lord_n require_v again_o at_o their_o hand_n &_o also_o what_o

of_o god._n such_o be_v the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o ancient_a people_n as_o the_o passeover_n the_o sundry_a sacrifice_n of_o the_o father_n institute_v partly_o for_o the_o acknowledge_v call_v to_o

the_o supper_n of_o the_o lord_n to_o be_v short_a i_o think_v himself_o that_o there_o can_v be_v find_v a_o better_a interpreter_n or_o expounder_n of_o the_o lord_n word_n then_o the_o lord_n himself_o who_o for_o so_o much_o as_o he_o say_v in_o the_o vi_o chapter_n of_o saint_n john_n that_o his_o flesh_n be_v eat_v to_o wit_n corporal_o as_o the_o capernaite_n take_v it_o profit_v
