a_o evasion_n be_v a_o palpable_a error_n be_v apparent_a from_o the_o institution_n of_o our_o saviour_n as_o record_v by_o all_o the_o evangelist_n that_o mention_v it_o in_o all_o the_o gospel_n where_o this_o be_v repeat_v for_o as_o the_o essential_a part_n be_v always_o set_v down_o so_o we_o have_v prescribe_v bread_n and_o wine_n which_o by_o a_o solemn_a consecration_n be_v bless_v and_o separate_v from_o common_a use_n to_o signify_v christ_n body_n and_o blood_n and_o in_o a_o separate_a manner_n to_o represent_v christ_n dead_a and_o not_o unite_v under_o one_o symbol_n and_o to_o whosoever_o he_o give_v the_o body_n represent_v by_o the_o bread_n the_o same_o person_n receive_v the_o blood_n signify_v by_o the_o wine_n contain_v in_o the_o cup_n as_o it_o appear_v upon_o the_o view_n of_o christ_n own_o institution_n if_o it_o be_v object_v upon_o the_o grant_n of_o this_o which_o none_o can_v deny_v that_o the_o apostle_n then_o only_o receive_v and_o that_o the_o romanist_n themselves_o allow_v it_o to_o the_o priest_n it_o may_v from_o thence_o with_o a_o great_a colour_n be_v argue_v that_o the_o whole_a sacrament_n ought_v only_o to_o be_v continue_v to_o the_o clergy_n and_o that_o the_o laity_n shall_v not_o receive_v so_o much_o as_o a_o part_n and_o then_o the_o argument_n will_v soon_o deprive_v they_o of_o all_o than_o any_o one_o part_n of_o it_o but_o that_o i_o may_v total_o invalidate_v this_o scruple_n and_o at_o the_o same_o time_n prove_v the_o papist_n to_o be_v erroneous_a let_v we_o view_v the_o institution_n as_o repeat_v by_o s._n paul_n who_o have_v in_o this_o prove_a rome_n to_o have_v err_v and_o clear_o free_v we_o from_o their_o imposture_n though_o s._n peter_n say_v nothing_o of_o it_o 1_o cor._n 11.23_o i_o have_v receive_v of_o the_o lord_n that_o which_o i_o also_o deliver_v unto_o you_o that_o the_o lord_n jesus_n the_o same_o night_n in_o which_o he_o be_v betray_v take_v bread_n and_o when_o he_o have_v

he_o take_v the_o cup_n when_o he_o have_v sup_v say_v this_o cup_n be_v the_o new_a testament_n in_o my_o blood_n this_o do_v you_o as_o oft_o as_o you_o drink_v it_o in_o remembrance_n of_o i_o now_o the_o whole_a design_n of_o this_o repetition_n of_o the_o first_o institution_n be_v to_o rebuke_v those_o disorderly_a practice_n of_o the_o whole_a body_n of_o the_o church_n of_o corinth_n and_o to_o regulate_v all_o by_o the_o institution_n of_o our_o saviour_n and_o all_o together_o as_o well_o people_n as_o clergy_n be_v tell_v that_o as_o often_o as_o they_o eat_v this_o bread_n and_o drink_v this_o cup_n they_o show_v forth_o the_o lord_n death_n till_o he_o come_v if_o this_o then_o be_v to_o be_v continue_v in_o the_o church_n as_o a_o memorial_n of_o christ_n death_n till_o his_o come_n again_o to_o judge_v the_o world_n which_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n will_v not_o deny_v it_o must_v be_v a_o error_n thus_o to_o depart_v from_o the_o first_o institution_n of_o christ_n and_o the_o succeed_a practice_n of_o his_o bless_a apostle_n to_o say_v nothing_o of_o other_o age_n of_o the_o church_n to_o give_v to_o the_o people_n a_o half_a communion_n which_o the_o
