two_o thing_n very_o clear_o 1_o sy_n that_o at_o that_o time_n they_o keep_v the_o bread_n of_o the_o eucharist_n in_o a_o casket_n or_o coffer_n so_o far_o be_v they_o from_o make_v it_o a_o

little_a bit_n and_o it_o be_v in_o the_o same_o sense_n that_o he_o speak_v of_o a_o small_a part_n of_o the_o sacrifice_n expression_n that_o be_v utter_o inconsistent_a with_o the_o notion_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n concern_v the_o carnal_a presence_n and_o indeed_o it_o be_v plain_a in_o all_o his_o write_n that_o he_o follow_v the_o step_n of_o st._n augustin_n in_o his_o expression_n and_o judgement_n of_o thing_n which_o be_v contrary_a to_o those_o of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n this_o we_o may_v see_v in_o his_o extract_n of_o the_o sentence_n of_o st._n augustin_n where_o he_o repeat_v what_o that_o father_n have_v say_v upon_o psalm_n 33._o upon_o occasion_n of_o these_o word_n of_o the_o vulgar_a version_n which_o say_v that_o david_n ferebatur_fw-la in_o

his_o body_n which_o may_v be_v call_v his_o body_n in_o some_o sense_n that_o be_v to_o say_v by_o way_n of_o likeness_n as_o st._n augustin_n express_v himself_o concern_v it_o i_o cite_v nothing_o here_o from_o those_o other_o work_v which_o be_v attribute_v to_o he_o because_o indeed_o they_o be_v none_o of_o he_o i_o shall_v only_o observe_v two_o thing_n the_o first_o be_v that_o in_o his_o epistle_n to_o demetrius_n he_o plain_o show_v that_o he_o know_v nothing_o of_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n concern_v the_o necessity_n of_o the_o minister_n intention_n for_o the_o validity_n of_o the_o sacrament_n for_o there_o he_o attribute_n all_o to_o the_o work_n of_o god_n and_o not_o to_o that_o of_o the_o minister_n according_a to_o the_o doctrine_n of_o st._n augustin_n upon_o the_o question_n of_o the_o validity_n of_o baptism_n confer_v by_o heretic_n the_o other_o be_v that_o as_o he_o follow_v st._n augustin_n in_o the_o matter_n of_o free_a grace_n as_o one_o may_v see_v in_o his_o poem_n gather_v from_o the_o opinion_n of_o st._n augustin_n and_o his_o sentence_n so_o he_o reject_v the_o doctrine_n of_o merit_n and_o work_n as_o a_o pure_a pelagian_a doctrine_n in_o several_a place_n of_o his_o write_n last_o we_o must_v join_v with_o these_o author_n arnobius_n the_o rhetorician_n since_o it_o be_v very_o probable_a that_o he_o live_v in_o gallia_n narbonensis_n because_o he_o have_v dedicate_v some_o of_o his_o work_n to_o leontius_n bishop_n of_o arles_n to_o the_o bishop_n of_o narbonne_n and_o faustus_n bishop_n of_o riez_n who_o die_v about_o the_o year_n 485._o arnobius_n explain_v his_o belief_n in_o the_o matter_n of_o the_o eucharist_n after_o this_o manner_n we_o have_v receive_v say_v he_o upon_o the_o 4_o the_o psalm_n wheat_n in_o the_o body_n wine_n in_o the_o blood_n and_o oil_n in_o chrism_n so_o likewise_o on_o psal_n 104._o he_o say_v of_o jesus_n christ_n that_o he_o administer_v not_o only_o the_o species_n of_o bread_n but_o also_o of_o wine_n and_o oil._n thus_o it_o be_v he_o describe_v the_o eucharist_n and_o
account_n he_o call_v it_o the_o truth_n of_o the_o heavenly_a sacrament_n we_o have_v a_o like_a expression_n of_o baptism_n allude_v to_o the_o passage_n of_o the_o red-sea_n in_o one_o of_o st._n

to_o we_o that_o we_o may_v become_v new_a sepulcher_n for_o thy_o body_n though_o indeed_o these_o expression_n plain_o show_v that_o they_o be_v only_o intend_v for_o the_o prefigure_v the_o death_n of_o christ_n cleric_a according_a to_o the_o notion_n of_o rabanus_n maurus_n we_o find_v there_o frequent_o that_o the_o sacrament_n be_v say_v to_o be_v a_o remedy_n for_o the_o body_n and_o a_o

which_o we_o find_v in_o the_o roman_a order_n in_o blessing_n a_o grave_a that_o it_o may_v be_v a_o save_a remedy_n to_o the_o party_n rest_v in_o it_o for_o the_o redemption_n of_o his_o soul_n 207._o in_o the_o same_o liturgy_n they_o say_v to_o god_n do_v thou_o therefore_o so_o come_v down_o into_o the_o present_a oblation_n that_o it_o may_v afford_v heal_v unto_o the_o live_n and_o

the_o ancient_a doctrine_n and_o religion_n of_o these_o diocese_n which_o may_v be_v easy_o make_v out_o by_o the_o follow_a observation_n 1._o i_o own_o that_o we_o find_v in_o the_o write_n of_o

of_o the_o three_o the_o second_o be_v that_o though_o odo_n may_v have_v entertain_v this_o opinion_n of_o paschasius_fw-la concern_v the_o carnal_a presence_n of_o jesus_n christ_n yet_o we_o may_v easy_o observe_v that_o he_o never_o own_v the_o consequence_n of_o it_o for_o we_o find_v in_o the_o relation_n of_o the_o death_n of_o this_o odo_n who_o die_v at_o rome_n in_o the_o year_n 942_o that_o he_o receive_v the_o eucharist_n but_o there_o be_v no_o mention_n make_v of_o any_o adoration_n that_o he_o pay_v at_o his_o receive_n it_o 2._o we_o be_v to_o observe_v that_o in_o this_o
