lord_n body_n from_o other_o bodily_a meat_n &_o drink_n for_o see_v our_o saviour_n christ_n have_v adorn_v these_o holy_a mystery_n with_o the_o name_n of_o his_o most_o precious_a body_n &_o blood_n whosoever_o contemn_v or_o light_o regard_v the_o fame_n must_v needs_o deserve_v such_o punishment_n and_o condemnation_n as_o they_o which_o abuse_v not_o only_o the_o name_n of_o god_n of_o who_o he_o protest_v that_o he_o will_v not_o hold_v they_o guiltless_a but_o also_o the_o seal_n of_o god_n whereby_o he_o offer_v they_o assurance_n of_o their_o redemption_n and_o even_o the_o

of_o this_o cup_n of_o the_o lord_n unworthy_o shall_v not_o be_v guilty_a of_o abuse_v of_o bread_n and_o wine_n and_o other_o such_o like_a creature_n the_o abuse_v whereof_o be_v nevertheless_o unanswerable_a before_o god_n but_o he_o shall_v be_v guilty_a of_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n which_o sin_n how_o horrible_a and_o gricuous_a it_o be_v in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n to_o be_v guilty_a of_o the_o body_n &_o blood_n of_o christ_n we_o may_v easy_o perceive_v if_o we_o call_v to_o remembrance_n the_o example_n of_o those_o who_o most_o cruel_o and_o despiteful_o betray_v condemn_v scourge_v and_o crucify_v his_o most_o holy_a and_o innocent_a body_n when_o he_o live_v upon_o the_o earth_n the_o guiltiness_n of_o who_o treason_n false_a witness_v unjust_a

i_o say_v of_o all_o which_o injury_n and_o villeny_v they_o do_v most_o just_o heap_v upon_o themselves_o which_o unworthy_o unaduised_o rash_o or_o negligent_o presume_v to_o come_v to_o the_o
