eat_v and_o drink_v the_o natural_a flesh_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n and_o suppose_v a_o man_n shall_v eat_v his_o son_n in_o a_o pastry_n where_o the_o figure_n of_o the_o body_n be_v so_o alter_v that_o it_o can_v be_v easy_o know_v to_o be_v human_a flesh_n or_o so_o mince_a and_o aromatize_v that_o the_o taste_n can_v no_o more_o discern_v what_o it_o be_v than_o minodoe_n can_v tell_v of_o

can_v no_o way_n excuse_v he_o from_o unnatural_a barbarity_n 9_o how_o can_v any_o romanist_n ascertain_v himself_o free_a of_o idolatry_n without_o divine_a revelation_n for_o if_o transubstantiation_n be_v not_o true_a by_o their_o own_o confession_n they_o be_v certain_o guilty_a of_o the_o most_o damnable_a idolatry_n in_o the_o world_n in_o worship_v a_o piece_n of_o bread_n as_o god_n and_o suppose_v such_o a_o change_n can_v be_v they_o can_v never_o be_v certain_a that_o it_o be_v since_o according_a to_o the_o council_n of_o florence_n and_o trent_n the_o validity_n of_o the_o consecration_n depend_v on_o the_o intention_n of_o the_o priest_n which_o can_v be_v know_v assure_o without_o divine_a revelation_n neither_o be_v it_o sufficient_a to_o excuse_v they_o from_o idolatry_n that_o they_o intend_v to_o worship_n god_n and_o not_o a_o creature_n for_o so_o all_o the_o idolatry_n that_o ever_o be_v in_o the_o world_n may_v be_v excuse_v which_o be_v nothing_o else_o but_o a_o mistake_n of_o the_o deity_n and_o upon_o that_o mistake_n a_o worship_v of_o something_o that_o be_v not_o god_n as_o god._n 10._o suppose_v a_o miracle_n be_v produce_v to_o prove_v the_o truth_n of_o transubstantiation_n may_v it_o not_o be_v demand_v to_o what_o purpose_n be_v that_o production_n see_v we_o can_v believe_v the_o miracle_n unless_o it_o be_v obvious_a to_o some_o of_o our_o sense_n and_o then_o the_o argument_n for_o transubstantiation_n and_o the_o objection_n against_o it_o will_v just_o balance_v one_o another_o so_o that_o in_o this_o case_n a_o miracle_n will_v signify_v nothing_o because_o that_o will_v be_v to_o prove_v to_o a_o man_n by_o something_o that_o he_o see_v that_o he_o do_v not_o see_v what_o he_o see_v 11._o if_o the_o sense_n of_o all_o mankind_n may_v be_v delude_v what_o evidence_n have_v we_o for_o the_o passion_n and_o resurrection_n of_o christ_n suppose_v we_o have_v see_v they_o with_o our_o eye_n and_o not_o only_o hear_v of_o they_o with_o our_o ear_n for_o if_o in_o the_o matter_n of_o bread_n and_o wine_n all_o our_o sense_n save_o one_o be_v deceive_v why_o may_v not_o one_o have_v be_v delude_v in_o reference_n to_o the_o humiliation_n and_o exaltation_n of_o christ_n so_o that_o we_o may_v have_v as_o easy_o mistake_v a_o image_n for_o a_o live_a man_n upon_o the_o cross_n as_o to_o imagine_v a_o piece_n of_o bread_n to_o be_v the_o true_a body_n of_o a_o man_n and_o that_o a_o live_a human_a body_n be_v to_o be_v find_v in_o every_o atom_n thereof_o 12._o whereas_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o institution_n that_o christ_n body_n be_v break_v for_o we_o and_o yet_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o roman_a church_n be_v that_o it_o be_v break_v into_o whole_n and_o not_o into_o part_n do_v not_o this_o clear_o imply_v a_o contradiction_n that_o christ_n body_n be_v break_v and_o not_o break_v at_o the_o self_n same_o time_n or_o that_o it_o be_v whole_a and_o not_o whole_a 13._o do_v it_o not_o involve_v horrible_a impiety_n to_o imagine_v that_o the_o glorify_a body_n of_o our_o saviour_n shall_v be_v contract_v to_o the_o crum_n of_o a_o wafer_n that_o he_o shall_v be_v perfect_o deprive_v of_o sense_n and_o reason_n that_o he_o shall_v not_o be_v able_a to_o defend_v himself_o against_o the_o assault_n of_o the_o most_o contemptible_a vermine_n that_o if_o the_o stomach_n of_o the_o communicant_a chance_n to_o be_v overcharge_v with_o wine_n that_o he_o shall_v be_v vomit_v up_o again_o or_o if_o he_o have_v a_o lienteria_fw-la that_o he_o shall_v go_v whole_o to_o the_o draught_n 14._o since_o the_o apostle_n 1_o cor._n 10._o tell_v we_o express_o that_o the_o father_n do_v eat_v the_o same_o spiritual_a meat_n and_o drink_v the_o same_o spiritual_a drink_n which_o we_o do_v may_v it_o not_o be_v pertinent_o demand_v if_o the_o manna_n and_o rock_n which_o follow_v they_o be_v transubstantiate_v into_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n or_o may_v not_o believer_n under_o the_o gospel_n feed_v upon_o christ_n in_o a_o spiritual_a and_o mystical_a sense_n as_o the_o father_n do_v under_o the_o law_n without_o any_o transubstantiation_n of_o the_o element_n 15._o since_o our_o saviour_n john_n 6._o say_v that_o he_o who_o eat_v his_o flesh_n and_o drink_v his_o blood_n have_v eternal_a life_n how_o can_v this_o be_v apply_v to_o transubstantiation_n unless_o any_o be_v so_o absurd_a as_o to_o imagine_v that_o all_o who_o partake_v of_o those_o consecrate_a element_n shall_v be_v save_v 16._o since_o the_o cartesian_a philosopher_n have_v by_o irrefragable_a reason_n demonstrate_v that_o the_o nature_n of_o all_o real_a body_n must_v needs_o consist_v in_o extension_n or_o as_o they_o phrase_v it_o the_o have_v part_v extra_fw-la part_n it_o be_v simple_o impossible_a to_o conceive_v a_o indivisible_a atom_n or_o least_o particle_n of_o matter_n which_o be_v lay_v on_o a_o plain_a to_o touch_v it_o in_o all_o part_n but_o that_o the_o superior_a portion_n thereof_o must_v be_v without_o the_o contact_n of_o that_o plain_a where_o there_o be_v no_o penetration_n if_o therefore_o christ_n body_n be_v reduce_v to_o a_o indivisible_a point_n by_o transubstantiation_n it_o may_v be_v pertinent_o demand_v if_o this_o opinion_n do_v not_o reduce_v the_o body_n of_o christ_n to_o the_o nature_n of_o a_o spirit_n and_o consequent_o be_v a_o worse_a heresy_n than_o the_o fantastical_a body_n of_o the_o marcionite_n 17._o since_o divers_a of_o the_o ancient_a father_n improve_v the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o eucharist_n in_o order_n to_o the_o confutation_n of_o the_o eutychian_a heresy_n have_v it_o not_o be_v perfect_a nonsense_n in_o they_o to_o have_v avow_v from_o such_o a_o

sacrifice_n of_o the_o mass._n qu._n 1._o since_o in_o a_o true_a sacrifice_n the_o thing_n sacrifice_v must_v be_v destroy_v and_o if_o it_o have_v life_n it_o must_v be_v kill_v it_o may_v be_v demand_v if_o christ_n be_v true_o and_o proper_o sacrifice_v as_o the_o romanist_n will_v have_v it_o be_v he_o not_o true_o and_o proper_o put_v to_o death_n as_o oft_o as_o the_o priest_n say_v mass_n which_o be_v direct_o contrary_a to_o heb._n 10._o &_o 11._o cap._n 2._o whereas_o the_o apostle_n argue_v the_o perfection_n of_o christ_n sacrifice_n above_o those_o of_o the_o law_n because_o those_o be_v offer_v year_n by_o year_n but_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o christ_n body_n be_v offer_v once_o for_o all_o if_o christ_n be_v daily_o sacrifice_v in_o the_o mass_n must_v not_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o christ_n be_v much_o more_o defective_a than_o those_o of_o the_o law_n since_o one_o sacrifice_n of_o expiation_n for_o the_o whole_a congregation_n of_o israel_n be_v think_v sufficient_a for_o the_o whole_a year_n whereas_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o christ_n body_n be_v repeat_v every_o day_n yea_o for_o one_o single_a person_n he_o may_v be_v sacrifice_v a_o thousand_o time_n over_o if_o we_o may_v believe_v the_o doctrine_n of_o that_o church_n 3._o how_o can_v that_o be_v a_o propitiatory_a sacrifice_n at_o the_o first_o institution_n which_o be_v previous_a to_o christ_n death_n unless_o they_o will_v say_v that_o propitiation_n be_v make_v before_o christ_n suffer_v though_o with_o divers_a of_o the_o ancient_a father_n we_o be_v still_o ready_a to_o acknowledge_v the_o eucharist_n to_o be_v a_o commemorative_n sacrifice_n and_o its_o possible_a that_o the_o error_n of_o the_o romanist_n have_v its_o rise_n therefrom_o sect_n xiii_o of_o private_a
