we_o confess_v that_o we_o make_v a_o distinction_n betwixt_o christ_n jesus_n in_o his_o eternal_a substance_n and_o betwixt_o the_o element_n in_o the_o sacramental_a sign_n so_o that_o we_o will_v

do_v use_v they_o with_o all_o reverence_n examine_v ourselves_o diligent_o before_o that_o so_o we_o do_v because_o we_o be_v assure_v by_o the_o mouth_n of_o the_o apostle_n that_o such_o as_o eat_v of_o that_o bread_n and_o drink_v of_o that_o cup_n unworthy_o be_v guilty_a of_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n jesus_n xxii_o of_o the_o right_a administration_n of_o the_o sacrament_n that_o sacrament_n be_v right_o minister_v we_o judge_v two_o thing_n requisite_a the_o one_o that_o they_o be_v minister_v by_o lawful_a minister_n who_o we_o affirm_v to_o be_v only_o these_o that_o be_v appoint_v to_o the_o preach_n of_o the_o word_n into_o who_o mouth_n god_n have_v put_v some_o sermon_n of_o exhortation_n they_o be_v man_n lawful_o choose_v thereto_o by_o some_o kirk_n the_o

christ_n jesus_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v that_o we_o fly_v the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o papistical_a kirk_n in_o participation_n of_o their_o sacrament_n first_o because_o their_o minister_n be_v no_o minister_n of_o christ_n jesus_n yea_o which_o be_v more_o horrible_a they_o suffer_v woman_n who_o the_o holy_a ghost_n will_v not_o suffer_v to_o teach_v in_o the_o congregation_n to_o

but_o which_o at_o the_o same_o time_n be_v so_o evident_o refell_v by_o show_v that_o the_o earl_n right_n be_v long_o anterior_a and_o no_o way_n touch_v by_o all_o the_o act_n of_o parliament_n whereon_o he_o found_v that_o his_o majesty_n after_o full_a information_n do_v first_o by_o his_o letter_n a_o copy_n whereof_o you_o will_v find_v subjoin_v express_o order_v the_o pass_a and_o
