upon_o the_o cross_n and_o that_o this_o be_v as_o true_a a_o proper_a and_o propitiatory_a sacrifice_n as_o the_o other_o and_o that_o it_o be_v so_o not_o only_o for_o the_o live_n but_o also_o

to_o god_n in_o his_o last_o supper_n before_o he_o offer_v up_o himself_o upon_o the_o cross_n if_o either_o or_o both_o of_o these_o prove_v false_a the_o sacrifice_n of_o the_o mass_n be_v so_o far_o from_o be_v true_a that_o it_o must_v necessary_o fall_v to_o the_o ground_n according_a to_o their_o own_o principle_n and_o acknowledgement_n second_o there_o be_v no_o scripture_n ground_n

that_o the_o very_a foundation_n of_o this_o sacrifice_n be_v establish_v upon_o two_o very_a great_a error_n and_o mistake_v the_o first_o of_o which_o be_v the_o doctrine_n of_o transubstantiation_n

of_o this_o without_o the_o other_o but_o if_o christ_n body_n and_o blood_n be_v not_o substantial_o present_a under_o the_o species_n of_o bread_n and_o wine_n they_o have_v no_o subject_a matter_n
