the_o invisible_a might_n this_o mystery_n be_v a_o pledge_n and_o a_o figure_n christ_n body_n be_v truth_n itself_o this_o pledge_n we_o do_v keep_v mystical_o until_o that_o we_o be_v come_v unto_o

do_v eat_v that_o heavenly_a bread_n and_o they_o die_v not_o that_o everlasting_a death_n though_o they_o die_v the_o common_a death_n they_o see_v that_o that_o heavenly_a meat_n be_v visible_a and_o corruptible_a but_o they_o ghostly_a understand_v by_o that_o visible_a thing_n another_o meat_n and_o ghostly_a receive_v it_o our_o saviour_n say_v he_o that_o eat_v my_o flesh_n and_o drink_v my_o blood_n have_v everlasting_a life_n now_o he_o bid_v they_o not_o eat_v that_o body_n wherewith_o he_o be_v enclose_v nor_o drink_v that_o blood_n which_o he_o shed_v for_o we_o but_o he_o mean_v

the_o mystery_n of_o the_o holy_a housel_n therefore_o we_o ought_v to_o consider_v diligent_o how_o that_o this_o holy_a housel_n be_v both_o christ_n body_n and_o the_o body_n of_o all_o faithful_a

we_o will_v before_o have_v entreat_v of_o the_o lamb_n which_o the_o old_a israelite_n offer_v at_o their_o easter_n time_n but_o that_o we_o desire_v first_o to_o declare_v unto_o you_o of_o this_o

even_o as_o god_n have_v command_v they_o with_o unleavened_a bread_n and_o wild_a lettuice_n so_o shall_v we_o receive_v that_o holy_a housell_n of_o christ_n body_n and_o blood_n without_o the_o

and_o the_o apostle_n have_v teach_v how_o we_o shall_v feast_v not_o in_o the_o leaven_n of_o evilnesse_n but_o in_o the_o sweet_a dough_n of_o purity_n and_o truth_n iii_o the_o herb_n which_o

if_o we_o will_v eat_v christ_n body_n four_o those_o israelite_n be_v not_o wont_a to_o eat_v raw_a flesh_n and_o therefore_o god_n bid_v they_o to_o eat_v it_o neither_o raw_a nor_o sodden_a in_o

holy_a ghost_n and_o then_o

eat_v we_o his_o body_n roast_v with_o fire_n because_o the_o holy_a ghost_n come_v in_o fyerie_a likeness_n unto_o the_o apostle_n in_o diverse_a tongue_n v._o the_o israelite_n shall_v eat_v the_o

again_o when_o we_o take_v hold_v of_o his_o humanity_n with_o love_n then_o eat_v we_o the_o lamb_n foot_n because_o that_o christ_n be_v the_o beginning_n and_o the_o end_n god_n before_o all_o
