this_o doctrine_n of_o the_o eucharist_n i_o will_v add_v some_o observation_n upon_o the_o same_o for_o 1._o as_o christ_n in_o baptism_n contract_v all_o purification_n cleansing_n and_o lustration_n in_o the_o law_n so_o in_o this_o he_o abridge_v all_o the_o ilastical_a and_o eucharistical_a sacrifice_n with_o their_o meat-offering_n drink-offering_n and_o sacrificial_a feast_n 2._o
