that_o sense_n which_o imply_v the_o actual_a death_n of_o the_o victim_n we_o confess_v aloud_o that_o jesus-christ_n be_v no_o long_o offer_v so_o neither_o in_o the_o eucharist_n nor_o any_o where_o else_o but_o as_o this_o same_o word_n have_v a_o large_a signification_n in_o other_o place_n of_o scripture_n where_o it_o be_v often_o say_v that_o one_o offer_v to_o god_n what_o one_o

whole_a scripture_n and_o especial_o that_o epistle_n which_o they_o seek_v so_o much_o to_o strain_v against_o us._n for_o by_o the_o same_o reason_n we_o ought_v to_o conclude_v that_o when_o
