of_o sin_n math._n 26.26.22.28_o 1._o corinth_n 11.24.25.26_o 2_o second_o that_o as_o bread_n have_v his_o property_n through_o god_n blessing_n give_v it_o to_o feed_v and_o strengthen_v our_o natural_a body_n in_o this_o life_n so_o his_o body_n be_v represent_v effectual_o unto_o we_o by_o that_o bread_n have_v the_o selfsame_a property_n touch_v our_o soul_n to_o strengthen_v and_o to_o

to_o be_v find_v in_o he_o alone_o and_o to_o join_v these_o two_o together_o of_o which_o we_o have_v speak_v several_o this_o we_o must_v know_v and_o believe_v further_o that_o as_o our_o diet_n be_v then_o full_a whole_a and_o perfect_a as_o it_o be_v when_o it_o consist_v of_o these_o two_o thing_n bread_n and_o wine_n or_o drink_v so_o we_o may_v know_v that_o the_o fullness_n and_o prefection_n of_o all_o spiritual_a nourishment_n be_v to_o be_v find_v in_o christ_n alone_o &_o no_o where_o else_o while_o that_o he_o be_v become_v as_o well_o the_o drink_n as_o the_o meat_n of_o
