and_o whereby_o we_o do_v he_o more_o service_n and_o honour_n then_o by_o any_o other_o service_n or_o service_n that_o we_o can_v do_v he_o this_o truth_n be_v clear_a out_o of_o the_o doctrine_n that_o have_v be_v set_v down_o for_o the_o will_n of_o our_o saviour_n be_v so_o unite_v and_o conform_v unto_o the_o will_n of_o his_o father_n he_o know_v that_o his_o father_n by_o this_o

while_o he_o live_v in_o this_o world_n all_o his_o pleasure_n and_o content_n be_v to_o fulfil_v the_o will_n of_o his_o father_n 4._o beside_o which_o there_o be_v another_o special_a reason_n of_o this_o doctrine_n to_o wit_n in_o regard_n of_o the_o representation_n which_o be_v make_v in_o the_o mass_n of_o the_o life_n passion_n death_n and_o all_o the_o mystery_n of_o our_o say_a lord_n

and_o heremite_n and_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o confessor_n of_o their_o fast_n watch_n pennance_n and_o mortification_n and_o they_o will_v all_o have_v do_v and_o suffer_v more_o for_o god_n his_o

we_o must_v call_v to_o mind_v a_o point_n of_o most_o certain_a christian_a theology_n to_o wit_n that_o christ_n our_o lord_n be_v the_o supreme_a and_o principal_a priest_n who_o by_o himself_o

from_o the_o give_v of_o sin_n by_o the_o mediation_n and_o ministry_n of_o the_o priest_n &_o of_o that_o sacramental_a action_n this_o be_v yet_o more_o proper_o &_o singular_o true_a in_o the_o most_o sacred_a mystery_n of_o the_o eucharist_n christ_n be_v he_o that_o work_v that_o wonderful_a transubstantiation_n and_o conversion_n of_o bread_n into_o his_o body_n and_o of_o wine_n into_o

be_v christ_n in_o the_o psalm_n term_v priest_n for_o ever_o according_a to_o the_o order_n of_o melchisedech_n 4._o for_o he_o shall_v not_o be_v term_v perpetual_a priest_n according_a to_o the_o

this_o reason_n we_o say_v he_o take_v the_o chalice_n and_o because_o that_o which_o be_v contain_v in_o our_o chalice_n when_o we_o take_v it_o into_o our_o hand_n be_v a_o thing_n of_o the_o same_o
