and_o then_o as_o christ_n say_v if_o we_o eat_v not_o the_o flesh_n of_o the_o son_n of_o man_n we_o have_v not_o life_n in_o we_o because_o christ_n have_v order_v the_o sacrament_n of_o his_o

with_o itself_o for_o first_o as_o touch_v the_o eutichian_o eutiche_n where_o you_o say_v that_o gelasius_n direct_v his_o argument_n of_o the_o two_o nature_n in_o man_n &_o of_o the_o two_o nature_n in_o the_o sacrament_n chief_o against_o the_o eutichian_o to_o prove_v the_o nature_n of_o man_n to_o remain_v in_o christ_n after_o the_o adunation_n whosoever_o read_v gelasius_n shall_v find_v otherwise_o that_o he_o direct_v his_o argument_n indifferent_o as_o well_o against_o nestorius_n as_o against_o eutiche_n and_o no_o more_o against_o the_o one_o then_o against_o the_o other_o nor_o no_o more_o do_v the_o eutichian_o abhor_v alius_fw-la and_o alius_fw-la alius_fw-la although_o some_o gather_v so_o of_o their_o word_n then_o do_v the_o nestorian_n which_o word_n signify_v diversity_n of_o person_n as_o aliud_fw-la and_o aliud_fw-la signify_v diversity_n of_o nature_n aliud_fw-la so_o as_o the_o body_n &_o soul_n in_o one_o man_n be_v aliud_fw-la and_o aliud_fw-la by_o reason_n of_o diversity_n of_o nature_n &_o yet_o be_v they_o not_o alius_fw-la and_o alius_fw-la because_o that_o both_o together_o make_v but_o one_o person_n by_o mean_n of_o which_o difference_n between_o alius_fw-la and_o alius_fw-la we_o say_v alius_fw-la pater_fw-la alius_fw-la filius_fw-la alius_fw-la spiritus_fw-la sanctus_fw-la and_o not_o aliud_fw-la pater_fw-la aliud_fw-la filius_fw-la aliud_fw-la spiritus_fw-la sanctus_fw-la for_o asmuch_o as_o they_o be_v three_o in_o person_n and_o but_o one_o in_o nature_n and_o substance_n and_o because_o christ_n be_v two_o in_o nature_n that_o be_v to_o say_v of_o his_o deity_n and_o humanity_n and_o but_o one_o in_o person_n therefore_o we_o say_v aliud_fw-la &_o aliud_fw-la est_fw-la divinitas_fw-la &_o humanitas_fw-la but_o not_o alius_fw-la sed_fw-la unus_fw-la est_fw-la christus_fw-la and_o although_o nestorius_n grant_v two_o nature_n in_o christ_n yet_o not_o as_o you_o say_v from_o his_o nativity_n nor_o by_o adunation_n but_o by_o cohabitation_n or_o inhabitation_n so_o that_o he_o make_v but_o one_o christ_n although_o some_o otherwise_o take_v he_o and_o not_o alium_fw-la &_o alium_fw-la after_o which_o sort_n the_o godhead_n be_v also_o in_o other_o godly_a man_n who_o by_o grace_n he_o make_v partaker_n of_o his_o godly_a nature_n although_o by_o their_o natural_a generation_n they_o be_v but_o

you_o may_v have_v bestow_v your_o time_n better_o than_o to_o have_v lose_v somuch_o labour_n to_o impugn_v the_o truth_n for_o although_o neither_o nestorius_n nor_o eutiches_n deny_v the_o
