for_o answer_v to_o the_o first_o article_n which_o the_o doctor_n propose_v touch_v their_o mass_n the_o minister_n say_v that_o the_o doctor_n do_v open_o blaspheme_v jesus_n christ_n to_o

shall_v bear_v witness_n wherein_o they_o ordinary_o exhort_v the_o people_n to_o pray_v unto_o god_n for_o they_o true_a it_o be_v that_o they_o require_v the_o extirpation_n of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o satan_n and_o the_o root_n out_o of_o all_o heresy_n and_o perverse_a doctrine_n rather_o by_o the_o preach_n of_o god_n word_n then_o by_o all_o other_o mean_n and_o they_o wonder_v why_o the_o

reason_n but_o because_o the_o doctor_n have_v write_v that_o many_o proposition_n set_v forth_o by_o the_o minister_n contain_v blasphemy_n which_o they_o shall_v content_v themselves_o to_o deny_v or_o to_o prove_v that_o there_o be_v none_o and_o leave_v the_o judgement_n thereof_o to_o the_o reader_n without_o enter_v into_o such_o hot_a collar_n see_v they_o profess_v to_o be_v so_o much_o

they_o honour_v the_o catholic_a doctrine_n as_o with_o the_o name_n of_o superstition_n idolatry_n impiety_n abomination_n and_o many_o other_o like_a yea_o not_o spare_v

to_o the_o end_n it_o may_v wash_v us._n of_o this_o as_o before_o do_v the_o minister_n infer_v two_o thing_n the_o one_o be_v that_o the_o word_n of_o consecration_n be_v not_o as_o be_v say_v a_o simple_a pronunciation_n but_o a_o public_a and_o manifest_a declaration_n of_o the_o institution_n and_o ordinance_n and_o of_o the_o whole_a mystery_n of_o the_o death_n of_o jesus_n christ_n the_o other_o that_o the_o sign_n and_o element_n consecrate_v be_v not_o change_v as_o touch_v their_o nature_n and_o substance_n but_o only_o as_o touch_v the_o use_n and_o signification_n and_o that_o only_a during_o the_o action_n wherein_o they_o do_v serve_v for_o to_o consecrate_v the_o sign_n as_o the_o water_n in_o baptism_n and_o the_o bread_n and_o wine_n in_o the_o supper_n be_v no_o other_o thing_n then_o to_o depute_v and_o make_v they_o serve_v to_o a_o holy_a and_o sacred_a use_n by_o the_o public_a declaration_n of_o the_o ordinance_n of_o god_n make_v to_o this_o end_n and_o not_o to_o change_v they_o as_o touch_v their_o nature_n and_o substance_n the_o which_o vanish_v away_o and_o be_v abolish_v there_o shall_v remain_v no_o more_o of_o the_o sign_n nor_o consequent_o of_o the_o sacrament_n even_o so_o then_o as_o the_o water_n in_o baptism_n after_o consecration_n abide_v water_n without_o that_o the_o nature_n or_o substance_n thereof_o in_o aught_o change_v or_o alter_v so_o also_o the_o bread_n and_o wine_n in_o the_o supper_n remain_v as_o touch_v their_o substance_n such_o after_o consecration_n as_o they_o be_v before_o else_o shall_v there_o not_o be_v analogy_n nor_o mutual_a agreement_n between_o the_o sign_n and_o the_o thing_n signify_v for_o what_o comparison_n or_o conformity_n be_v there_o between_o the_o accident_n of_o bread_n and_o the_o truth_n of_o the_o body_n of_o jesus_n christ_n see_v that_o the_o accident_n of_o bread_n as_o the_o whiteness_n and_o roundness_n destitute_a of_o their_o substance_n as_o the_o sophister_n do_v false_o imagine_v can_v not_o nourish_v nor_o sustain_v the_o body_n and_o by_o that_o mean_a shall_v not_o be_v proper_a to_o signify_v that_o the_o flesh_n and_o blood_n of_o jesus_n christ_n do_v nourish_v and_o sustain_v our_o soul_n this_o than_o must_v be_v hold_v for_o a_o thing_n resolve_v that_o the_o bread_n and_o the_o wine_n abide_v in_o their_o substance_n which_o thing_n be_v

the_o nature_n of_o the_o bread_n be_v there_o still_o remain_v by_o the_o passage_n aforesaid_a as_o well_o of_o the_o holy_a scripture_n as_o of_o the_o ancient_a doctor_n and_o other_o which_o
