real_a body_n of_o christ_n which_o be_v flesh_n and_o bone_n it_o follow_v by_o their_o doctrine_n that_o there_o be_v no_o bread_n leave_v in_o the_o sacrament_n as_o it_o be_v minister_v by_o

disprove_v two_o way_n first_o in_o that_o the_o scripture_n which_o make_v express_v mention_n of_o christ_n miracle_n do_v never_o make_v mention_n nor_o observation_n of_o any_o miracle_n to_o have_v be_v do_v by_o he_o in_o this_o change_a bread_n into_o his_o body_n second_o the_o scripture_n make_v mention_n of_o any_o miraculous_a change_n of_o one_o substance_n into_o another_o do_v

bestow_v in_o answer_n to_o another_o question_n of_o this_o kind_n therefore_o thus_o much_o may_v here_o suffice_v to_o show_v that_o by_o the_o error_n of_o transubstantiation_n there_o be_v not_o leave_v any_o bread_n upon_o the_o lord_n table_n by_o they_o that_o affirm_v the_o bread_n to_o be_v change_v into_o flesh_n and_o therefore_o that_o this_o part_n of_o the_o sacrament_n be_v want_v in_o the_o mass_n now_o for_o the_o other_o the_o same_o may_v be_v say_v concern_v the_o wine_n which_o they_o do_v likewise_o teach_v to_o be_v turne●_n into_o the_o very_a blood_n of_o christ_n but_o it_o appear_v also_o further_o in_o that_o they_o have_v sacrilegious_o rob_v the_o lord_n table_n of_o that_o bless_a cup_n that_o belong_v to_o it_o for_o although_o they_o suffer_v the_o priest_n to_o drink_v of_o the_o cup_n and_o the_o people_n also_o to_o drink_v wine_n yet_o the_o wine_n that_o they_o give_v the_o people_n be_v not_o consecrate_v nor_o any_o part_n of_o the_o

be_v according_a to_o the_o doctrine_n practice_n and_o commandment_n of_o our_o saviour_n christ_n and_o of_o his_o apostle_n furthermore_o as_o by_o this_o mean_v the_o sea_n of_o rome_n have_v

to_o the_o sign_v and_o confirm_v unto_o we_o our_o spiritual_a communion_n with_o he_o to_o the_o participation_n of_o all_o his_o gift_n even_o to_o life_n everlasting_a the_o church_n of_o rome_n have_v transfigure_v this_o sacrament_n into_o a_o sacrifice_n propitiatory_a for_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o live_n and_o of_o the_o dead_a and_o to_o this_o end_n they_o have_v bring_v into_o the_o

of_o offer_v a_o sacrifice_n propitiatory_a to_o take_v away_o our_o sin_n and_o that_o daily_a and_o by_o the_o priest_n there_o be_v no_o word_n in_o the_o scripture_n for_o it_o contrariwise_o the_o scripture_n teach_v direct_o the_o contrary_a and_o declare_v this_o doctrine_n to_o be_v full_a of_o error_n and_o blasphemy_n for_o the_o scripture_n teach_v we_o that_o there_o be_v but_o

for_o sin_n derogate_v high_o from_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n wh_o reby_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o faithful_a be_v take_v away_o as_o if_o that_o have_v not_o be_v sufficient_a contrary_a to_o the_o
