food_n such_o as_o we_o must_v leave_v vain_a and_o empty_a thing_n will_v not_o this_o therefore_o make_v we_o seek_v the_o main_a the_o food_n that_o endure_v to_o everlasting_a life_n and_o labour_n to_o be_v in_o christ_n more_o and_o more_o labour_v to_o cherish_v communion_n with_o christ_n that_o everlasting_a bond_n what_o be_v the_o sacrament_n but_o the_o food_n of_o our_o soul_n our_o everlasting_a manna_n that_o will_v continue_v for_o ever_o and_o make_v we_o continue_v for_o ever_o christ_n if_o we_o have_v he_o he_o continue_v for_o ever_o and_o he_o make_v we_o

sour_a herb_n to_o make_v the_o passeover_n to_o make_v christ_n relish_v the_o better_a oh_o be_v all_o thing_n vain_a and_o shall_v i_o not_o labour_v to_o have_v my_o part_n in_o that_o that_o

thing_n in_o he_o what_o if_o all_o the_o earth_n shall_v fail_v if_o i_o have_v communion_n with_o christ_n i_o have_v all_o if_o i_o marry_v christ_n i_o have_v all_o with_o he_o all_o be_v my_o jointure_n if_o i_o have_v christ_n once_o all_o thing_n be_v you_o if_o you_o be_v christ_n if_o i_o have_v christ_n what_o can_v i_o want_v when_o i_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n have_v communion_n with_o christ_n let_v this_o strengthen_v my_o desire_n to_o come_v to_o the_o sacrament_n in_o this_o that_o i_o have_v speak_v that_o all_o other_o thing_n fail_v our_o communion_n with_o christ_n be_v everlasting_a therefore_o look_v to_o that_o christ_n be_v the_o food_n of_o the_o soul_n all_o other_o food_n the_o sweetness_n of_o it_o be_v go_v within_o a_o quarter_n of_o a_o hour_n the_o

offer_v himself_o unto_o death_n and_o shed_v out_o his_o blood_n and_o give_v his_o body_n to_o be_v crucify_v for_o we_o this_o food_n feed_v our_o soul_n to_o everlasting_a life_n we_o cherish_v our_o faith_n in_o the_o assurance_n of_o the_o favour_n of_o god_n to_o everlasting_a the_o sweetness_n the_o strength_n and_o the_o comfort_n of_o this_o food_n endure_v for_o ever_o and_o therefore_o consider_v that_o all_o other_o thing_n be_v food_n that_o perish_v labour_n for_o that_o that_o will_v feed_v we_o to_o everlasting_a life_n and_o then_o we_o shall_v make_v a_o right_a

the_o time_n be_v short_a and_o the_o fashion_n of_o thing_n pass_v away_o he_o see_v they_o and_o thereupon_o can_v infer_v the_o negative_a part_n therefore_o we_o shall_v not_o be_v worldly_a for_o the_o negative_a part_n by_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n a_o man_n that_o have_v no_o religion_n may_v be_v sound_a in_o that_o and_o therefore_o not_o to_o care_n much_o for_o earthly_a thing_n

for_o god_n may_v have_v suspend_v the_o mutability_n of_o thing_n if_o he_o will_v as_o the_o heavenly_a angel_n be_v mutable_a because_o they_o be_v create_v but_o god_n have_v suspend_v there_o

indeed_o but_o there_o be_v another_o reason_n behind_o accurse_v that_o now_o since_o the_o fall_n of_o man_n there_o be_v a_o curse_n upon_o all_o thing_n there_o be_v a_o sentence_n of_o

be_v subject_a to_o mutability_n and_o change_n but_o we_o may_v thank_v ourselves_o we_o be_v the_o grand-traitor_n that_o bring_v this_o misery_n upon_o the_o creature_n that_o be_v the_o true_a
