holy_a church_n can_v err_v christ_n must_v have_v patience_n &_o transubstantiation_n must_v take_v place_n but_o we_o have_v yet_o a_o much_o clear_a text_n to_o wit_n where_o christ_n himself_o say_v this_o be_v my_o body_n for_o by_o those_o word_n do_v the_o holy_a church_n of_o rome_n plain_o understand_v that_o the_o same_o which_o before_o be_v bread_n be_v now_o no_o more_o bread_n although_o paul_n will_v call_v it_o bread_n a_o thousand_o time_n but_o be_v change_v into_o the_o very_a body_n of_o jesus_n christ_n as_o long_o and_o as_o broad_a as_o it_o be_v hang_v upon_o the_o crosse._n and_o for_o that_o cause_n it_o be_v that_o she_o do_v disallow_v all_o the_o exposition_n and_o interpretation_n which_o basilius_n tertullianus_n theodoretus_n augustinus_n and_o other_o holy_a father_n have_v set_v forth_o upon_o the_o same_o say_v that_o those_o word_n must_v be_v figurative_o and_o sacramental_o understand_v as_o christ_n himself_o have_v plain_o say_v i_o be_o the_o vine_n or_o as_o paul_n say_v the_o stone_n be_v christ_n and_o as_o god_o speak_v to_o abraham_n say_v this_o be_v my_o promise_n cut_v off_o the_o fore_n skin_n etc_n etc_n which_o be_v as_o much_o to_o say_v that_o the_o bread_n shall_v not_o change_v his_o nature_n nor_o the_o very_a body_n of_o christ_n be_v there_o present_a but_o only_o that_o it_o shall_v be_v a_o true_a and_o holy_a token_n a_o sacrament_n a_o warrant_n and_o pledge_v a_o seal_n and_o assurance_n whereby_o we_o be_v assure_v and_o full_o certify_v that_o he_o have_v give_v up_o his_o body_n and_o blood_n for_o our_o salvation_n and_o for_o this_o cause_n do_v they_o call_v it_o a_o figure_n or_o token_n and_o in_o the_o greek_a typus_fw-la and_o antitypa_n that_o be_v to_o say_v special_a token_n but_o i_o do_v tell_v you_o that_o the_o holy_a church_n of_o rome_n will_v not_o allow_v any_o such_o interpretation_n unless_o it_o be_v so_o that_o man_n will_v understand_v they_o as_o

their_o conceit_n and_o meaning_n it_o be_v apparent_a out_o of_o this_o that_o long_o before_o the_o bread_n and_o the_o wine_n be_v consecrate_v or_o make_v a_o holy_a sacrament_n they_o do_v offer_v up_o the_o same_o unto_o god_n for_o remission_n of_o sin_n as_o well_o of_o the_o live_n as_o of_o the_o dead_a mass_n for_o in_o the_o canon_n of_o the_o mass_n yea_o before_o the_o bread_n be_v turn_v into_o flesh_n or_o the_o five_o holy_a word_n of_o consecration_n be_v hear_v the_o priest_n do_v pray_v that_o god_n will_v accept_v that_o offering_n of_o bread_n mass_n and_o through_o that_o deliver_v he_o from_o eternal_a death_n and_o then_o that_o he_o will_v bless_v the_o say_a offering_n of_o bread_n in_o all_o point_n and_o make_v the_o same_o holy_a profitable_a meat_n and_o acceptable_a that_o be_v may_v become_v the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o jesus_n christ._n yea_o and_o before_o he_o have_v yet_o put_v the_o wine_n into_o the_o chalice_n immediate_o after_o the_o offertory_n he_o say_v thus_o offertory_n oh_o holy_a father_n almighty_a and_o everlasting_a god_n take_v and_o receive_v this_o unspotted_a sacrifice_n which_o thine_o unworthy_a servant_n do_v offer_v up_o unto_o thou_o for_o my_o sin_n and_o innumerable_a misdeed_n for_o my_o forgetfulness_n and_o unthankfulness_n yea_o and_o for_o all_o these_o which_o be_v here_o present_a and_o for_o all_o faithful_a christian_n as_o well_o those_o that_o be_v live_v as_o those_o that_o be_v dead_a that_o it_o may_v be_v acceptable_a available_a and_o effectual_a unto_o the_o salvation_n both_o of_o i_o and_o of_o they_o unto_o eternal_a life_n amen_n and_o in_o one_o of_o the_o secret_n which_o be_v common_o read_v upon_o the_o 24._o sunday_n after_o trinity_n sunday_n he_o say_v thus_o

through_o the_o almightiness_n and_o unspeakablenesse_n of_o thy_o mercy_n etc_n etc_n consider_v now_o here_o do_v our_o dear_a mother_n the_o holy_a church_n ascribe_v unto_o this_o bread_n all_o

they_o do_v make_v a_o god_n of_o it_o after_o the_o five_o word_n be_v speak_v over_o it_o and_o yet_o make_v a_o sacrament_n of_o it_o before_o it_o can_v be_v a_o sacrament_n for_o as_o they_o

this_o sacrament_n be_v but_o a_o token_n a_o seal_n and_o a_o pledge_n special_o before_o it_o be_v become_v a_o sacrament_n for_o after_o that_o it_o be_v once_o a_o sacrament_n than_o not_o
