congruence It doth extende farther or els I haue mist Ye for soth quod he who wyll that resyst For when Christ offered him selfe by his passion He became for euer our propiciation In consideration wherof we do here Offer to the father this swete sacrifice Of his blessed sonne to him moost dere Whose death for mercy for vs dayly cryes For workes haue we none that before his eyes Are worthy of mercy therfore we do all In that same death for mercy dayly cal The next figure quod he to this agreeth wel Where as the Iewes the paschal lambe did eate In the remembraunce as scripture doth tell Of their deliueraunce by myracle great Out of Egypte of whiche figure to entreate It wyll require a longe circumstaunce But lette not the tyme to the be greuaunce Egypte the darknes of synne doth signifie In the whiche man was after his fall And by Pharao is figured the deuill truely Under whom man was both subiecte and thral And Moyses in figure Christ I may call Whiche Moyses ledde the children of Israel Through the redde sea from Pharao cruell Euen so our Moyses Christ our sauiour Deliuered his people through his redde bloud From Pharao the deuill and all his hole power Under whom man then in great daunger stood Now when God by Moyses was to man thus good He wilde man yerely for a memoriall To eate a lambe which they named the paschall Then for as muche as our lord did fore se How the nature of man was corrupted With forgetfulnes for the whiche he For mens coÌ„moditee this ordeined That they shoulde eate a male lambe vnspotted In a remembraunce how they deliuered were From wicked Pharao as ye before did here In like maner our sauiour Christ Iesu Ordeined for a perpetuall memorye A lambe to be eaten our mindes to renewe In dayly remembraunce of his mercy Whiche he procured by his death truely The lambe that he lefte was himselfe in dede As in the Euangelistes plaine we do reade That christ is the laÌ„be it doth plaine appeare Beholde the lambe of God saint Iohn doth say That taketh awai the sinnes of the world cleare Which he did truely by his death that day That his fleshe was brokeÌ„ none can this denay Now then to Christes maundy let vs resorte And se there what weight his wordes doth importe Christ at his last supper toke bread in his hand He blest it and brake it and those wordes saied This is my body thus doth his wordes stande The whiche for you saith he shal be betrayed These were his wordes it can not be denaied But he spake thus quod I only in figure That doth not quod he agree with scripture Thou must nedes grauÌ„t ê™ he that christ came here The figures of the olde lawe to fulfyll Cheifely all suche as of his coÌ„ming were And that not with figures to thinke so were yl Whoso affirmeth that can litle skyll In the scripture for thus writteth saint Paule That the lawe to the Iewes was in figures al. And yet this same sacrament is a figure But not only of Christes body naturall For y t it coÌ„taineth but this we read in scripture That the fourme of bred which we se material Is a figure of Christes body mysticall As to the Corynthes we do plainely reade To recite the wordes I thinke shall not nede But now to note christes words how thei were spokeÌ„ Thê is my body that geueÌ„ for you shal be Whiche the next day on the crosse was broken For the sinnes of all men this by faith we se. Now that christ is trueth needes we must agre Wel theÌ„ of the bread truth these words did say Which truely was true if he died the next day Thus is Christ the lambe that continuallye Is eaten of vs in his memoriall Because we should not forget his mercy Whiche by his death he purchast for vs all This to his comming truely continue shall The Iewes then eate the lambe in figure onlye But we eat the true laÌ„be the scripture doth try The Manna also which came from aboue To feede Gods people in the wildernes Doth signifie this great token of loue With whiche Christ doth fede his people doubtlesse As y e Prophetes saying here plain doth expresse The breade of Angels man hath eate saith he And christ this same breade nameth hiÌ„self to be I am the breade of lyfe saieth our sauiour Whiche from heauen aboue did truely descende To geue lyfe to man doth passe mannes power I am the true breade which doth to that exteÌ„de Manna from hounger did man only defende but who y t eateth of this bread sure of life shal be And the breade that I wyll geue is my fleshe saieth he Came his flesh froÌ„ heaueÌ„ ê™ I that wold I here For I beleue of trueth he toke it of Marye And yet by your wordes me thiÌ„ke it doth appere That y e bread was his flesh which came froÌ„ a hie I thinke this saying true ye can not trye For if ye can so my faith I wyll forsake For I do beleue his fleshe he did here take Loo here thy ignoraunce thou dost shew to me Did not christ like case say these wordes plainly truly No man ascendeth to heauen but only he Which came downe froÌ„ heaueÌ„ the sonne of man Which is in heauen marke what these wordes doth try the son of maÌ„ which is iÌ„ heaueÌ„ yet he Was in his manhode here as all men might se. To discusse that ê™ I doth farre passe my wit Why wilt thou theÌ„ quod he in thy faith dispute Thou wouldest dig a pitte thi selfe fall into it As many other doth them selues to coÌ„fute But do not thou like case froÌ„ thi faith traÌ„smute And now to shew the I wyll take in hand How these two places true together stand But first one text I wyll note to the more What wyll ye say saieth Christ when ye shall see The sonne of man ascende where he was before Doth not this text now expresse vnto thee His manhode in heauen before that to be May not I say than his fleshe is that bread Which came froÌ„ heaueÌ„ wherw t our soules be fed Then toke he no fleshe here that I ê‘ceiue wel Yes forsoth ê™ he this dothe not that disproue For why s. Iohn doth writ in his gospel That the word was made flesh euen Gods soÌ„ne aboue By eternal generacion none can that remoue So God man was knyt alwayes to remaine But one in ê‘sonage though in natures twaine Nowe syth our nature vnto God is knyt Beyng one in person as I before did say To know how this should be doth passe al mens wyt Yet that this is true no man can denay But that man is God and God is man alway Now then Christes holy fleshe by this vnitie May truely be said alwaye in heauen to be Now this heaueÌ„ly bred vnder which christ is here The breade of
