but_o also_o to_o inflame_v we_o to_o peace_n unity_n &_o brotherly_a charity_n for_o in_o this_o sacrament_n the_o lord_n do_v after_o such_o a_o manner_n make_v we_o partaker_n of_o his_o body_n as_o he_o become_v all_o one_o thing_n with_o we_o and_o we_o with_o he_o by_o reason_n where_o of_o forasmuch_o as_o he_o have_v but_o one_o body_n whereof_o he_o make_v we_o partaker_n wine_n it_o

unto_o we_o not_o only_o allure_v we_o to_o give_v ourselves_o one_o to_o another_o but_o also_o by_o make_v himself_o common_a to_o we_o all_o make_v we_o also_o to_o be_v all_o one_o self-same_a

and_o that_o he_o utter_o refuse_v his_o own_o righteousness_n to_o embrace_v only_o the_o righteousness_n which_o god_n have_v give_v we_o through_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ._n 3._o also_o they_o

therefore_o my_o déerbeloved_a brethren_n let_v we_o cease_v to_o speak_v that_o thing_n of_o the_o apostle_n saint_n paul_n which_o he_o never_o once_o think_v of_o himself_o but_o féers_o fight_v

that_o you_o fear_v of_o punishment_n be_v proper_a to_o the_o old_a testament_n and_o childly_a love_v to_o the_o new_a testament_n according_a as_o s._n paul_n witness_v when_o he_o say_v to_o the_o

may_v plain_o gather_v that_o you_o painful_a and_o slavish_a fearfulness_n agree_v not_o with_o a_o christian_a and_o this_o be_v already_o confirm_v by_o this_o that_o such_o manner_n of_o
