of_o the_o scripture_n howbeit_o howsoever_o i_o understand_v it_o this_o i_o do_v answer_v plain_o though_o not_o without_o peril_n i_o answer_v i_o say_v that_o to_o the_o right_a celebration_n of_o

a_o real_a presence_n and_o this_o presence_n be_v sufficient_a for_o a_o christian_a man_n as_o a_o presence_n by_o which_o we_o abide_v in_o christ_n and_o christ_n abide_v in_o we_o to_o the_o
