for_o you_o as_o st._n luke_n yet_o as_o they_o all_o say_v enough_o to_o show_v that_o this_o sacrament_n of_o bread_n and_o wine_n be_v intend_v for_o a_o representation_n of_o our_o saviour_n passion_n and_o the_o violence_n that_o be_v then_o offer_v to_o his_o crucify_a body_n so_o they_o do_v thereby_o sufficient_o intimate_v that_o the_o break_n of_o the_o bread_n be_v intend_v as_o a_o representation_n of_o it_o there_o be_v nothing_o in_o the_o bread_n to_o represent_v this_o to_o we_o but_o only_o the_o break_n of_o it_o this_o however_o be_v evident_a that_o our_o saviour_n break_v that_o bread_n which_o he_o before_o take_v and_o bless_a and_o that_o rite_n of_o break_v be_v afterward_o look_v upon_o as_o so_o considerable_a that_o it_o give_v name_n to_o the_o sacrament_n itself_o and_o the_o whole_a of_o it_o from_o that_o one_o rite_n entitle_v the_o break_n of_o bread_n our_o saviour_n have_v thus_o take_v and_o bless_a and_o break_a bread_n for_o thus_o far_o to_o be_v sure_o we_o have_v bread_n whatever_o we_o have_v beside_o he_o proceed_v to_o give_v it_o to_o his_o disciple_n for_o so_o the_o three_o evangelist_n assure_v we_o not_o that_o the_o original_a of_o those_o evangelist_n have_v any_o thing_n in_o it_o to_o express_v the_o thing_n give_v but_o that_o it_o speak_v of_o his_o give_v somewhat_o to_o they_o and_o which_o consider_v the_o connexion_n of_o this_o act_n of_o christ_n with_o the_o former_a one_o can_v reasonable_o be_v understand_v of_o any_o other_o than_o the_o bread_n which_o he_o have_v before_o take_v and_o bless_v and_o break_v and_o though_o st._n paul_n take_v no_o notice_n of_o this_o gift_n of_o our_o saviour_n in_o the_o rehearsal_n he_o make_v of_o this_o his_o institution_n yet_o he_o sufficient_o intimate_v it_o when_o he_o bring_v he_o in_o say_v take_v eat_v this_o be_v my_o body_n etc._n etc._n his_o willing_a they_o to_o take_v and_o eat_v imply_v his_o part_n with_o it_o that_o they_o may_v partake_v of_o it_o this_o however_o be_v manifest_a from_o the_o evangelist_n that_o what_o our_o saviour_n before_o take_v and_o bless_v and_o break_v he_o give_v to_o his_o disciple_n and_o i_o suppose_v to_o each_o of_o the_o disciple_n in_o particular_a and_o by_o reach_v it_o forth_o unto_o they_o the_o former_a be_v the_o manner_n of_o that_o eucharist_n by_o which_o he_o frame_v his_o own_o both_o the_o one_o and_o the_o other_o the_o ancient_a practice_n of_o the_o church_n whether_o by_o the_o hand_n of_o he_o that_o bless_v it_o or_o of_o those_o deacon_n that_o minister_v to_o he_o i_o will_v not_o spend_v time_n in_o animadvert_v upon_o the_o word_n take_v eat_v which_o he_o use_v with_o the_o give_v of_o the_o bread_n it_o may_v suffice_v to_o say_v as_o to_o the_o former_a of_o these_o that_o as_o it_o be_v and_o always_o be_v the_o manner_n of_o guest_n to_o take_v or_o receive_v into_o their_o hand_n or_o in_o some_o plate_n which_o they_o hold_v in_o they_o what_o be_v give_v to_o they_o by_o another_o so_o the_o ancient_n know_v no_o other_o take_n or_o receive_v of_o this_o bread_n than_o that_o which_o be_v perform_v by_o they_o as_o little_a need_n to_o be_v say_v concern_v that_o eat_n which_o our_o saviour_n subjoin_v to_o the_o command_n of_o take_v or_o receive_v what_o he_o give_v they_o unless_o there_o can_v be_v

to_o be_v break_v for_o we_o there_o be_v otherwise_o no_o ground_n for_o that_o expression_n as_o to_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n but_o that_o the_o break_n of_o the_o bread_n be_v intend_v to_o
