scripture_n scripture_n clearance_n of_o the_o three_o contrariety_n betwixt_o doctor_n luther_n opinion_n and_o the_o holy_a scripture_n as_o we_o have_v above_o touch_v be_v this_o that_o the_o

the_o blood_n be_v in_o the_o wine_n and_o not_o in_o the_o bread_n then_o be_v it_o indeed_o manifest_a that_o they_o must_v be_v separate_v real_o from_o each_o other_o and_o doctor_n luther_n

upon_o this_o contrariety_n do_v we_o not_o find_v any_o thing_n of_o respect_n which_o doctor_n luther_n have_v answer_v in_o his_o strife_n writing_n neither_o do_v we_o see_v how_o it_o be_v
