in_o remembrance_n of_o the_o death_n &_o passion_n of_o jesus_n christ_n do_v eat_v and_o drink_n jesus_n christ_n spiritual_o to_o their_o everlasting_a salvation_n and_o i_o do_v very_o believe_v that_o in_o this_o sacrament_n supper_n neither_o the_o bread_n nor_o the_o wine_n neither_o before_o nor_o after_o the_o word_n of_o consecration_n as_o they_o term_v they_o be_v change_v alter_v

therefore_o paul_n fear_v not_o to_o call_v it_o bread_n still_o many_o time_n in_o his_o epistle_n to_o the_o corinthian_n and_o our_o saviour_n christ_n in_o the_o 6._o of_o john_n say_v that_o they_o shall_v see_v he_o ascend_v into_o heaven_n with_o the_o same_o body_n that_o he_o sit_v in_o with_o they_o at_o supper_n whole_a and_o uneaten_a add_v further_a that_o the_o word_n that_o he_o

of_o he_o and_o to_o preach_v his_o death_n therein_o till_o he_o come_v again_o if_o christ_n be_v in_o the_o sacrament_n flesh_n blood_n and_o bone_n than_o the_o wicked_a may_v eat_v he_o &_o so_o

his_o body_n which_o be_v blasphemous_a and_o sacrilegious_a once_o to_o imagine_v though_o the_o papist_n be_v not_o ashamed_a to_o teach_v it_o open_o and_o albeit_o that_o these_o sacrament_n do_v represent_v unto_o we_o most_o excellent_a thing_n grace_n yet_o do_v they_o not_o confer_v grace_n of_o themselves_o neither_o be_v the_o grace_n of_o god_n so_o tie_v to_o the_o material_a element_n that_o he_o can_v save_v without_o they_o and_o therefore_o be_v the_o papist_n more_v then_o cruel_a that_o teach_v all_o child_n to_o be_v damn_v that_o die_v before_o baptism_n for_o we_o read_v of_o certain_a in_o the_o act_n of_o the_o apostle_n that_o be_v baptize_v and_o yet_o they_o have_v not_o so_o much_o as_o hear_v whether_o there_o be_v any_o holy_a ghost_n or_o not_o simon_n

the_o holy_a ghost_n in_o his_o mother_n womb_n and_o the_o like_a but_o yet_o notwithstanding_o although_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n be_v not_o tie_v to_o the_o sacrament_n yet_o he_o that_o may_v

most_o constant_o believe_v that_o as_o jesus_n christ_n be_v the_o undoubted_a saviour_n of_o the_o world_n so_o be_v he_o our_o only_a mediator_n advocate_n and_o intercessor_n to_o god_n the_o

christ_n be_v our_o only_a mediator_n and_o advocate_n so_o i_o constant_o believe_v that_o he_o only_o be_v to_o be_v call_v upon_o invocate_v and_o pray_v unto_o and_o neither_o saint_n nor_o

grant_v our_o request_n and_o therefore_o christ_n say_v call_v upon_o i_o in_o the_o day_n of_o thy_o trouble_n and_o i_o will_v deliver_v thou_o and_o thou_o shall_v praise_v i_o and_o again_o the_o

be_v it_o not_o lawful_a to_o pray_v to_o any_o other_o but_o to_o god_n alone_o in_o the_o name_n and_o mediation_n of_o christ_n jesus_n only_o departure_n i_o do_v also_o most_o constant_o
