will_v say_v that_o this_o sacrifice_n be_v not_o institute_v by_o christ_n at_o least_o have_v no_o ground_n in_o the_o scripture_n i_o answer_v first_o that_o this_o may_v be_v retort_v against_o their_o form_n of_o communion_n which_o be_v but_o of_o late_a invention_n and_o have_v no_o more_o ground_n in_o scripture_n second_o admit_v this_o to_o be_v true_a yet_o the_o mass_n can_v be_v say_v to_o be_v idolatry_n for_o the_o church_n intend_v not_o thereby_o to_o give_v any_o honour_n to_o any_o feign_a or_o imagine_a god_n but_o only_o to_o the_o true_a god_n the_o worst_a that_o

three_o the_o church_n have_v always_o believe_v that_o christ_n himself_o institute_v this_o sacrifice_n in_o his_o last_o supper_n as_o it_o have_v be_v clear_o prove_v before_o as_o also_o that_o it_o be_v ground_v in_o the_o old_a and_o new_a testament_n other_o object_n that_o the_o mass_n admit_v of_o the_o adoration_n of_o the_o host_n which_o be_v plain_a idolatry_n for_o such_o

because_o his_o flesh_n and_o blood_n be_v not_o present_a in_o the_o eucharist_n as_o they_o who_o worship_v it_o there_o think_v it_o be_v for_o they_o know_v that_o the_o flesh_n and_o blood_n of_o
