the_o name_n three_o thing_n i_o note_v wherefore_o the_o devil_n may_v be_v say_v to_o compass_v the_o earth_n first_o because_o he_o tempt_v all_o man_n second_o because_o he_o tempt_v to_o all_o sin_n three_o because_o he_o tempt_v by_o all_o mean_n so_o whosoever_o sin_v wherein_o soever_o he_o offend_v whereby_o soever_o he_o be_v allure_v the_o sin_n and_o the_o sinner_n and_o the_o bait_n be_v compass_v and_o contrive_v by_o this_o archpolitique_a which_o call_v himself_o a_o compasser_n many_o have_v their_o name_n for_o naught_o because_o they_o do_v nothing_o for_o they_o like_o laban_n image_n which_o be_v call_v god_n though_o they_o be_v but_o block_n but_o the_o devil_n deserve_v his_o name_n he_o be_v not_o call_v a_o tempter_n and_o a_o liar_n and_o a_o slanderer_n and_o a_o accuser_n and_o a_o deceiver_n and_o a_o murderer_n &_o a_o compasser_n in_o vain_a like_a s._n george_n which_o be_v always_o on_o horseback_n and_o never_o ride_v but_o he_o will_v do_v more_o they_o by_o his_o office_n he_o be_v bind_v to_o other_o be_v call_v officer_n because_o they_o have_v a_o office_n but_o he_o be_v call_v a_o enemy_n because_o he_o show_v his_o envy_n other_o be_v call_v justicer_n because_o they_o shall_v do_v justice_n but_o he_o be_v call_v a_o tempter_n because_o he_o practise_v temptation_n other_o be_v call_v pastor_n because_o they_o shall_v feed_v but_o he_o be_v call_v a_o devourer_n because_o he_o do_v devour_v &_o we_o call_v he_o a_o compasser_n because_o that_o he_o do_v compass_v ever_o since_o he_o fall_v from_o heaven_n he_o have_v live_v like_o cain_n which_o can_v rest_v in_o a_o place_n but_o be_v a_o runagate_n over_o the_o earth_n from_o door_n to_o door_n from_o man_n to_o man_n beg_v for_o sin_n as_o the_o starve_a soul_n beg_v for_o bread_n he_o shall_v have_v dwell_v in_o heaven_n and_o not_o be_v compass_v the_o earth_n he_o shall_v have_v sing_v with_o the_o angel_n &_o not_o be_v quarrel_v with_o man_n but_o he_o have_v change_v his_o call_n and_o be_v become_v a_o compasser_n that_o be_v to_o lay_v fetter_n upon_o man_n as_o god_n have_v fetter_v he_o lest_o they_o shall_v ascend_v to_o the_o place_n from_o whence_o he_o be_v fall_v therefore_o in_o this_o the_o liar_n speak_v truth_n when_o he_o say_v i_o come_v from_o compass_v the_o earth_n as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v to_o god_n i_o come_v from_o the_o slaughter_n of_o thy_o servant_n not_o to_o ask_v forgiveness_n for_o all_o the_o soul_n which_o he_o have_v slay_v already_o but_o to_o get_v a_o commission_n that_o god_n will_v make_v he_o knight_n martial_n over_o the_o world_n to_o slay_v and_o kill_v as_o many_o as_o he_o hate_v like_o the_o bramble_n which_o set_v itself_o on_o fire_n first_o and_o then_o fire_v all_o the_o wood_n peter_n describe_v the_o devil_n walk_n say_v that_o he_o go_v about_o the_o devil_n say_v that_o he_o go_v a_o compass_n peter_n put_v in_o seek_v who_o he_o may_v devour_v the_o devil_n leave_v out_o devour_v and_o say_v no_o more_o but_o that_o he_o compass_v this_o circular_a walk_n be_v peculiar_a to_o the_o devil_n and_o therefore_o may_v be_v call_v the_o devil_n circuit_n all_o other_o creature_n go_v forward_o but_o the_o devil_n go_v about_o which_o may_v well_o be_v apply_v to_o the_o crafty_a devil_n because_o to_o go_v about_o be_v common_o take_v to_o undermine_v when_o he_o mean_v he_o will_v destroy_v you_o than_o we_o say_v he_o will_v compass_v you_o so_o when_o the_o devil_n compass_v then_o beware_v lest_o he_o devour_v for_o the_o devil_n go_v about_o man_n as_o the_o fowler_n go_v about_o the_o lark_n to_o snare_v she_o as_o the_o thief_n go_v about_o the_o house_n to_o rob_v it_o as_o the_o yvie_n go_v about_o the_o oak_n to_o kill_v it_o the_o devil_n walk_n be_v a_o siege_n which_o go_v about_o but_o to_o find_v a_o issue_n to_o go_v in_o for_o he_o go_v about_o but_o until_o he_o can_v get_v in_o to_o be_v a_o possessor_n he_o be_v content_a to_o be_v a_o compasser_n the_o first_o name_n the_o devil_n have_v in_o scripture_n be_v a_o serpent_n he_o be_v a_o serpent_n &_o so_o be_v his_o way_n like_o a_o serpent_n which_o wind_v himself_o like_o a_o circle_n as_o god_n be_v say_v to_o make_v a_o hedge_n about_o man_n so_o here_o the_o devil_n be_v say_v to_o make_v a_o hedge_n about_o man_n but_o this_o be_v a_o hedge_n of_o temptation_n and_o that_o be_v a_o hedge_n against_o temptation_n as_o david_n say_v the_o angel_n compass_v we_o so_o may_v he_o say_v the_o devil_n compass_n we_o satan_n compass_v and_o man_n be_v compass_v satan_n be_v like_o the_o circumference_n and_o man_n be_v as_o it_o be_v the_o centre_n that_o be_v temptation_n go_v round_o about_o he_o and_o he_o dwell_v in_o the_o midst_n of_o they_o thus_o much_o of_o compass_v now_o what_o he_o do_v compass_v i_o come_v from_o compass_v the_o earth_n this_o be_v the_o devil_n pilgrimage_n from_o one_o end_n of_o the_o earth_n to_o the_o other_o &_o then_o to_o the_o other_o again_o and_o then_o back_o again_o like_o a_o wander_a merchant_n which_o seek_v his_o traffic_n where_o he_o can_v speed_v cheap_a i_o have_v hear_v of_o some_o traveller_n which_o have_v go_v about_o the_o earth_n but_o i_o never_o hear_v of_o any_o that_o have_v see_v all_o part_n of_o the_o earth_n but_o this_o old_a pilgrim_n satan_n which_o have_v be_v in_o heaven_n and_o in_o paradise_n and_o in_o the_o earth_n and_o in_o the_o sea_n and_o in_o hell_n and_o yet_o have_v not_o do_v his_o walk_n but_o like_o the_o sun_n which_o course_v about_o the_o earth_n every_o day_n so_o there_o be_v no_o day_n but_o satan_n see_v every_o man_n upon_o earth_n as_o a_o compass_n have_v no_o end_n so_o he_o make_v no_o end_n of_o compass_v because_o he_o be_v such_o a_o compasser_n of_o the_o world_n therefore_o paul_n call_v he_o the_o god_n of_o this_o word_n not_o a_o piece_n of_o the_o world_n as_o england_n or_o ireland_n or_o france_n or_o germany_n or_o spain_n but_o of_o the_o world_n that_o be_v of_o all_o the_o country_n and_o city_n and_o town_n and_o village_n and_o house_n the_o pope_n talk_v of_o his_o kingdom_n how_o many_o province_n be_v under_o his_o dominion_n but_o the_o devil_n circuit_n be_v great_a than_o the_o pope_n one_o will_v think_v that_o he_o can_v never_o tend_v half_a his_o flock_n because_o he_o be_v vicar_n of_o so_o great_a a_o monarchy_n and_o yet_o he_o be_v never_o nonresident_a you_o may_v see_v his_o step_n every_o where_o so_o brim_n and_o fresh_a as_o though_o they_o be_v print_v in_o ash_n if_o god_n make_v you_o see_v your_o country_n naked_a your_o temple_n desolate_a your_o city_n ruin_v your_o house_n spoil_v you_o will_v say_v the_o spaniard_n have_v be_v here_o so_o when_o you_o see_v your_o mind_n corrupt_v your_o heart_n harden_v your_o will_n pervert_v your_o charity_n cool_v your_o judge_n briber_n your_o ruler_n persecutor_n your_o lawyer_n brabler_n your_o merchant_n usurer_n your_o landlord_n extortioner_n your_o patroness_n symonist_n your_o pastor_n loiterer_n you_o may_v say_v the_o devil_n have_v be_v here_o see_v then_o these_o weed_n grow_v in_o every_o ground_n you_o may_v bear_v the_o devil_n witness_n that_o he_o do_v compass_v all_o the_o earth_n if_o a_o man_n love_v his_o friend_n he_o will_v say_v i_o will_v go_v a_o hundred_o mile_n to_o do_v he_o good_a but_o if_o the_o devil_n hate_v a_o man_n he_o will_v go_v a_o thousand_o mile_n to_o do_v he_o hurt_v the_o devil_n do_v not_o go_v his_o progress_n like_o a_o king_n only_o for_o delight_n but_o all_o the_o way_n as_o he_o go_v peter_n say_v he_o seek_v who_o he_o may_v devour_v the_o devil_n go_v a_o visit_a he_o will_v teach_v the_o sick_a how_o they_o shall_v recover_v their_o health_n he_o will_v whisper_v the_o poor_a how_o they_o shall_v come_v by_o riches_n he_o will_v tell_v the_o captive_n how_o they_o shall_v redeem_v their_o liberty_n but_o to_o devour_v be_v the_o end_n of_o his_o visitation_n therefore_o peter_n call_v he_o a_o lion_n and_o say_v that_o he_o go_v about_o and_o tell_v we_o that_o he_o seek_v as_o he_o go_v at_o last_o he_o say_v to_o devour_v &_o there_o he_o end_v show_v that_o devour_a be_v his_o end_n now_o you_o shall_v hear_v who_o he_o compass_v and_o to_o what_o he_o compass_v and_o how_o he_o compass_v when_o it_o be_v say_v that_o the_o devil_n compass_v the_o earth_n it_o be_v mean_v that_o he_o compass_v the_o man_n of_o the_o earth_n out_o of_o which_o i_o gather_v first_o of_o all_o creature_n he_o compass_v man_n second_o that_o he_o compass_v all_o

because_o it_o signify_v the_o new_a testament_n so_o the_o bread_n and_o wine_n be_v call_v christ_n body_n because_o they_o signify_v christ_n body_n they_o which_o know_v that_o the_o lamb_n be_v not_o the_o passove_a though_o christ_n call_v it_o the_o pass_v over_o that_o circumcision_n be_v not_o the_o covenant_n though_o god_n call_v it_o the_o covenant_n that_o baptism_n be_v not_o regeneration_n though_o it_o be_v call_v regeneration_n that_o the_o cup_n be_v not_o the_o new_a testament_n though_o christ_n call_v it_o the_o new_a testament_n can_v they_o not_o as_o well_o

therefore_o they_o which_o say_v that_o the_o bread_n and_o wine_n be_v christ_n body_n because_o christ_n say_v 26_o this_o be_v my_o body_n may_v as_o well_o say_v that_o the_o lamb_n be_v the_o

itself_o what_o reason_n have_v they_o to_o take_v this_o sacrament_n for_o the_o thing_n itself_o more_o than_o all_o the_o rest_n it_o be_v the_o consent_n of_o all_o writer_n that_o a_o sacrament_n be_v a_o sign_n therefore_o not_o the_o thing_n signify_v no_o more_o than_o the_o bush_n at_o the_o door_n be_v the_o wine_n in_o the_o seller_n if_o i_o call_v the_o prince_n a_o phoenix_n the_o university_n a_o fountain_n the_o court_n a_o peacock_n the_o city_n a_o sea_n the_o country_n a_o hermit_n why_o can_v the_o papist_n understand_v i_o and_o not_o understand_v christ_n what_o a_o dark_a and_o strange_a and_o intricate_a and_o incredible_a speech_n have_v this_o be_v for_o they_o to_o understand_v gross_o and_o literal_o will_v they_o think_v that_o they_o do_v eat_v christ_n body_n when_o his_o body_n stand_v before_o they_o and_o he_o have_v tell_v they_o before_o that_o his_o body_n be_v like_o their_o body_n nay_o this_o will_v have_v require_v more_o word_n and_o make_v they_o come_v again_o with_o master_n 8._o what_o be_v the_o meaning_n for_o they_o be_v not_o so_o instruct_v yet_o before_o the_o resurrection_n to_o believe_v every_o thing_n without_o question_v if_o it_o be_v contrary_a to_o sense_n and_o reason_n but_o as_o they_o ask_v who_o have_v give_v he_o any_o meat_n when_o he_o say_v that_o he_o have_v meat_n 33._o &_o they_o can_v see_v none_o so_o they_o will_v have_v ask_v what_o meat_n be_v this_o which_o we_o see_v not_o how_o can_v every_o one_o of_o we_o eat_v his_o body_n &_o yet_o he_o have_v but_o one_o body_n &_o that_o body_n be_v whole_a when_o we_o eat_v it_o loe_o he_o stand_v before_o we_o &_o say_v that_o his_o body_n be_v like_a unto_o we_o &_o yet_o he_o take_v bread_n &_o break_v it_o &_o give_v it_o unto_o we_o to_o eat_v &_o when_o we_o eat_v it_o 39_o this_o be_v my_o body_n &_o yet_o his_o body_n stand_v before_o we_o still_o if_o his_o body_n be_v like_o we_o as_o he_o say_v how_o can_v it_o be_v eat_v &_o be_v there_o for_o we_o can_v thus_o they_o will_v have_v question_v if_o they_o have_v not_o be_v use_v to_o such_o phrase_n but_o as_o they_o can_v understand_v he_o when_o he_o call_v himself_o a_o stone_n a_o rock_n a_o door_n a_o window_n &_o a_o vine_n so_o they_o pick_v out_o his_o meaning_n when_o he_o say_v that_o bread_n be_v his_o body_n for_o he_o have_v tell_v they_o before_o that_o he_o be_v the_o bread_n of_o eternal_a life_n now_o the_o bread_n of_o eternal_a life_n be_v not_o eat_v with_o tooth_n for_o the_o body_n can_v eat_v spiritual_o no_o more_o than_o the_o soul_n can_v eat_v corporal_o and_o therefore_o he_o be_v such_o a_o bread_n as_o be_v eat_v with_o faith_n and_o so_o himself_o say_v in_o the_o gospel_n of_o john_n 35._o mark_v this_o eat_n by_o faith_n and_o all_o the_o strife_n be_v end_v flesh_n and_o blood_n indeed_o need_v not_o faith_n to_o chew_v they_o for_o the_o tooth_n can_v chew_v they_o well_o enough_o therefore_o if_o the_o bread_n and_o wine_n be_v the_o body_n of_o christ_n than_o we_o need_v not_o faith_n to_o eat_v it_o but_o all_o which_o have_v tooth_n may_v eat_v christ_n body_n yea_o the_o mouse_n may_v eat_v it_o as_o well_o as_o man_n for_o they_o eat_v the_o same_o bread_n that_o we_o do_v as_o well_o after_o it_o be_v consecrate_v as_o before_o if_o this_o be_v not_o enough_o to_o batter_v the_o ruin_n of_o this_o upstart_n heresy_n i_o will_v come_v to_o interrogatory_n and_o see_v whether_o they_o have_v learn_v it_o by_o rote_n or_o by_o reason_n if_o they_o ground_n their_o transubstantiation_n upon_o these_o word_n of_o christ_n 26_o this_o be_v my_o body_n which_o he_o speak_v to_o his_o disciple_n i_o ask_v they_o whether_o they_o receive_v that_o body_n which_o be_v mortal_a or_o that_o body_n which_o be_v glorify_v because_o one_o of_o these_o body_n they_o must_v needs_o receive_v either_o his_o mortal_a body_n or_o his_o glorify_a body_n sacrament_n if_o they_o say_v that_o it_o be_v his_o mortal_a body_n the_o mortal_a body_n will_v not_o profit_v they_o for_o you_o see_v that_o mortal_a food_n be_v but_o for_o this_o mortal_a life_n neither_o have_v christ_n a_o mortal_a body_n now_o to_o communicate_v unto_o they_o because_o it_o be_v change_v to_o a_o immortal_a body_n therefore_o they_o can_v receive_v the_o mortal_a body_n because_o christ_n have_v not_o a_o mortal_a body_n to_o give_v unto_o they_o if_o they_o say_v that_o they_o receive_v his_o glorify_a body_n then_o they_o must_v fly_v from_o this_o text_n for_o at_o that_o time_n christ_n have_v not_o any_o glorify_a body_n when_o this_o sacrament_n be_v institute_v and_o christ_n say_v this_o be_v my_o body_n his_o body_n be_v not_o glorify_v because_o the_o sacrament_n be_v institute_v before_o his_o death_n and_o his_o body_n be_v glorify_v after_o his_o resurrection_n therefore_o if_o they_o receive_v the_o same_o body_n which_o the_o apostle_n receive_v as_o they_o say_v they_o do_v they_o can_v receive_v a_o glorify_a body_n because_o than_o christ_n have_v not_o a_o glorify_a body_n to_o communicate_v unto_o they_o thus_o the_o rock_n and_o sand_n be_v of_o both_o side_n they_o they_o receive_v a_o body_n neither_o mortal_a nor_o immortal_a if_o christ_n have_v any_o such_o body_n judge_v you_o here_o they_o stand_v like_o a_o fool_n which_o can_v tell_v on_o his_o tale_n nabuchadnezzar_n dream_v a_o dream_n and_o know_v not_o what_o it_o mean_v 15._o beside_o i_o ask_v they_o to_o who_o christ_n speak_v when_o he_o say_v 24._o this_o be_v my_o body_n mark_n say_v he_o speak_v to_o they_o that_o be_v to_o his_o disciple_n well_o then_o if_o these_o word_n this_o be_v my_o body_n be_v not_o speak_v to_o the_o sign_n but_o to_o the_o person_n not_o to_o the_o bread_n and_o wine_n but_o to_o the_o receiver_n as_o the_o word_n which_o follow_v do_v this_o in_o remembrance_n of_o i_o disciple_n if_o these_o word_n be_v not_o speak_v to_o the_o bread_n and_o wine_n than_o it_o be_v plain_a that_o they_o do_v not_o change_v the_o nature_n of_o the_o bread_n and_o wine_n if_o the_o nature_n of_o they_o be_v not_o alter_v than_o the_o substance_n remain_v and_o then_o we_o receive_v no_o other_o substance_n with_o they_o because_o two_o substance_n can_v not_o be_v in_o one_o place_n what_o then_o be_v there_o nothing_o in_o the_o sacrament_n but_o bread_n and_o wine_n wine_n like_o a_o hungry_a nunstion_n nay_o we_o say_v not_o that_o the_o sacrament_n be_v nothing_o but_o a_o bare_a sign_n or_o that_o you_o receive_v no_o more_o than_o you_o see_v for_o christ_n say_v that_o it_o be_v his_o body_n and_o paul_n say_v that_o it_o be_v the_o communion_n of_o christ_n body_n and_o blood_n therefore_o there_o be_v more_o in_o sacramental_a bread_n 16_o then_o in_o common_a bread_n though_o the_o nature_n be_v not_o change_v yet_o the_o use_n be_v change_v it_o do_v not_o only_o nourish_v the_o body_n as_o it_o do_v before_o but_o also_o it_o bring_v a_o bread_n with_o it_o which_o nourish_v the_o soul_n for_o as_o sure_a as_o we_o receive_v bread_n so_o sure_o we_o receive_v

speak_v with_o thou_o you_o must_v understand_v that_o they_o which_o be_v here_o call_v christ_n brethren_n be_v his_o cousin_n by_o the_o mother_n side_n that_o be_v her_o sister_n child_n for_o

be_v four_o sort_n of_o brethren_n brethren_n by_o nature_n 30._o so_o esau_n and_o jacob_n be_v call_v brethren_n because_o they_o have_v one_o father_n and_o one_o mother_n brethren_n by_o nation_n

say_v he_o which_o have_v give_v we_o his_o son_n will_v he_o not_o give_v we_o all_o thing_n with_o he_o therefore_o grace_n may_v be_v call_v the_o gift_n of_o gift_n because_o all_o gift_n come_v

and_o yet_o man_n fear_v to_o be_v humble_a lest_o they_o shall_v be_v contemn_v humility_n do_v not_o make_v john_n contemptible_a but_o when_o he_o refuse_v the_o name_n of_o a_o prophet_n christ_n
