sign_n and_o the_o thing_n signify_v or_o as_o irenaeus_n speak_v of_o a_o earthly_a and_o heavenly_a thing_n but_o now_o neither_o can_n that_o that_o be_v signify_v be_v speak_v of_o the_o sign_n nor_o the_o sign_n of_o the_o thing_n signify_v but_o by_o the_o figure_n of_o metonymy_n and_o therefore_o the_o proposition_n of_o the_o first_o kind_n be_v declare_v by_o the_o verb_n signify_v understand_v of_o the_o sacramental_a signification_n to_o which_o also_o the_o give_v or_o ministration_n be_v always_o adjoin_v but_o the_o latter_a by_o the_o verb_n passive_a as_o this_o bread_n be_v my_o body_n that_o be_v this_o bread_n sacramental_o signify_v my_o body_n my_o body_n be_v this_o bread_n that_o be_v my_o body_n sacramental_o be_v signify_v by_o this_o bread_n now_o that_o this_o be_v the_o essential_a form_n of_o all_o sacrament_n it_o appear_v by_o the_o very_a name_n of_o sacrament_n as_o witness_v augustine_n in_o these_o word_n in_o he_o 5._o epistle_n it_o be_v overlong_o say_v he_o to_o dispute_v of_o the_o variety_n of_o sign_n which_o when_o they_o belong_v to_o holy_a thing_n be_v call_v sacrament_n it_o appear_v also_o by_o this_o that_o that_o be_v common_a to_o all_o sacrament_n as_o in_o the_o tree_n of_o life_n in_o that_o it_o be_v a_o sacrament_n there_o be_v consider_v the_o outward_a thing_n and_o the_o sign_n the_o visible_a plant_n the_o spiritual_a &_o heavenly_a thing_n jesus_n christ_n life_n in_o the_o tree_n of_o the_o knowledge_n both_o of_o good_a and_o evell_a a_o natural_a plant_n also_o and_o the_o experience_n of_o good_a and_o evil_n in_o circumcision_n the_o cut_n off_o the_o foreskinne_n and_o the_o take_v away_o of_o sin_n the_o imputation_n of_o righteousness_n and_o regeneration_n in_o the_o passover_o the_o lamb_n and_o christ_n in_o the_o rock_n of_o the_o desert_n the_o rock_n and_o christ_n pour_v out_o blood_n in_o the_o baptism_n of_o the_o cloud_n the_o cloud_n and_o the_o sea_n and_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n in_o manna_n bread_n give_v by_o miracle_n and_o the_o flesh_n of_o christ_n in_o the_o sabbath_n the_o seven_o day_n with_o cease_v from_o work_n and_o the_o mortification_n of_o the_o flesh_n and_o everlasting_a life_n in_o the_o sacrifice_n the_o offer_v slay_v and_o the_o oblation_n of_o christ_n make_v by_o himself_o in_o the_o sanctuary_n the_o entrance_n intoo_o into_o the_o temple_n and_o heaven_n in_o the_o tabernacle_n the_o work_n make_v with_o hand_n and_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n in_o the_o cherub_n in_o the_o image_n over_o the_o ark_n and_o the_o angel_n in_o the_o propitiatory_a or_o mercy_n seat_n the_o gild_a cover_v and_o jesus_n christ_n so_o in_o the_o appear_v of_o the_o dove_n the_o dove_n and_o the_o holy_a ghost_n in_o baptism_n water_n with_o wash_v and_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n wash_v we_o in_o the_o fiery_a tongue_n the_o natural_a fire_n and_o the_o holy_a ghost_n final_o even_o so_o in_o the_o supper_n of_o the_o lord_n bread_n and_o wine_n the_o sign_n and_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n our_o lord_n the_o thing_n sacramental_o signify_v question_n but_o many_o of_o these_o be_v rather_o type_n than_o sacrament_n answer_n admit_v it_o be_v so_o yet_o this_o notwithstanding_o be_v the_o form_n of_o all_o symbolical_a speech_n concern_v god_n therefore_o in_o the_o very_a writing_n of_o the_o apostle_n they_o be_v call_v sign_n seal_n type_n figure_n parable_n shape_n &_o resemblance_n and_o of_o the_o father_n also_o beside_o that_o they_o be_v call_v figure_n they_o be_v call_v mystery_n type_n signification_n similitude_n dark_a speech_n and_o mystical_a symbolle_n and_o by_o such_o like_a name_n question_n what_o do_v thou_o therefore_o conclude_v of_o all_o these_o answer_n that_o neither_o the_o thing_n signify_v can_v be_v say_v of_o the_o sign_n nor_o the_o sign_n of_o the_o thing_n signify_v otherwise_o then_o by_o translation_n and_o that_o that_o be_v so_o usual_a in_o the_o scripture_n as_o that_o they_o never_o in_o a_o manner_n speak_v otherwise_o 232._o question_n but_o the_o supper_n of_o the_o lord_n have_v a_o certain_a proper_a and_o special_a form_n which_o make_v that_o the_o same_o be_v not_o too_o be_v think_v of_o that_o which_o be_v to_o be_v think_v of_o the_o other_o sacrament_n answer_n albeit_o that_o this_o special_o belong_v unto_o those_o confutation_n which_o i_o will_v differ_v to_o their_o proper_a place_n notwithstanding_o that_o the_o force_n of_o the_o former_a argument_n may_v appear_v more_o clear_o go_v too_o let_v we_o speak_v somewhat_o also_o now_o concern_v this_o matter_n indeed_o i_o grant_v that_o the_o supper_n of_o the_o lord_n have_v his_o peculiar_a form_n whereby_o it_o differ_v from_o the_o rest_n aswell_o old_a as_o new_a sacrament_n but_o to_o what_o end_n be_v this_o for_o these_o form_z which_o be_v call_v discern_v form_z because_o they_o do_v discern_v the_o special_n of_o the_o same_o general_a they_o do_v not_o take_v away_o the_o constitute_n in_o which_o of_o necessity_n all_o the_o special_o must_v be_v constitute_v that_o they_o may_v be_v refer_v to_o the_o common_a general_n so_o for_o example_n sake_n a_o live_a creature_n be_v the_o common_a essential_a form_n and_o substance_n of_o all_o form_z perteyn_a to_o that_o gender_n now_o reason_n be_v the_o form_n whereby_o man_n be_v sunder_v from_o all_o other_o kind_n of_o live_a creature_n now_o will_v thou_o say_v that_o this_o same_o special_a form_n do_v bring_v to_o pass_v that_o that_o same_o general_a to_o wit_n live_v creature_n shall_v not_o be_v lay_v altogether_o by_o the_o same_o reason_n of_o man_n and_o of_o other_o live_a creature_n and_o i_o pray_v thou_o how_o if_o that_o which_o be_v call_v differentia_fw-la or_o proprium_fw-la for_o now_o i_o do_v not_o distinguish_v betwixt_o these_o shall_v altogether_o take_v away_o the_o same_o attribution_n of_o gender_n shall_v the_o distinction_n consist_v of_o gender_n and_o difference_n therefore_o that_o same_o special_a difference_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n whatsoever_o it_o be_v can_v not_o bring_v to_o pass_v that_o that_o same_o common_a reason_n which_o make_v a_o sacrament_n altogether_o by_o the_o same_o mean_a shall_v less_o be_v speak_v of_o the_o lord_n supper_n then_o of_o other_o sacrament_n now_o that_o same_o common_a reason_n as_o we_o have_v show_v be_v that_o the_o outward_a sign_n shall_v signify_v another_o thing_n sacramental_o now_o nothing_o be_v a_o sign_n of_o itself_o forasmuch_o as_o a_o sign_n be_v in_o the_o kind_n of_o those_o thing_n which_o be_v confer_v with_o another_o therefore_o that_o same_o remain_v common_a without_o exception_n to_o all_o sacrament_n that_o the_o thing_n signify_v be_v not_o the_o sign_n because_o these_o two_o must_v be_v in_o very_a deed_n and_o therefore_o the_o thing_n signify_v can_v not_o be_v say_v of_o the_o sign_n but_o transitive_o but_o furthermore_o here_o i_o will_v demand_v of_o thou_o what_o manner_n of_o difference_n thou_o make_v this_o to_o be_v question_n one_o in_o the_o subject_n a_o other_o in_o the_o attribute_n the_o three_o in_o the_o very_a mean_n of_o the_o attribution_n answer_n and_o what_o in_o the_o subject_n question_n because_o the_o element_n of_o the_o supper_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v diverse_a from_o the_o element_n of_o baptism_n answer_n be_v it_o so_o but_o what_o in_o the_o attribute_n question_n because_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o our_o lord_n be_v the_o signify_v thing_n of_o the_o supper_n of_o the_o lord_n answer_n thou_o be_v deceive_v for_o in_o baptism_n also_o the_o blood_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v the_o thing_n signify_v but_o what_o in_o the_o attribution_n question_n because_o only_o the_o element_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n be_v say_v in_o the_o word_n of_o the_o institution_n to_o be_v the_o very_a body_n and_o the_o very_a blood_n of_o our_o lord_n answer_n and_o what_o will_v thou_o conclude_v thereof_o question_n forsooth_o that_o in_o baptism_n the_o very_a blood_n of_o christ_n be_v not_o present_a and_o give_v but_o only_o the_o fruit_n of_o the_o blood_n shed_v but_o that_o in_o the_o supper_n the_o body_n itself_o and_o the_o blood_n itself_o be_v present_a and_o offer_v to_o the_o mouth_n itself_o answer_n whether_o these_o thing_n be_v true_o say_v or_o no_o we_o will_v see_v in_o their_o place_n but_o i_o pray_v thou_o do_v thou_o not_o mark_v that_o thou_o play_v the_o sophister_n question_n why_o so_o answer_n because_o thou_o chaung_a the_o question_n for_o we_o do_v not_o demand_v whether_o the_o matter_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n and_o of_o other_o sacrament_n be_v one_o and_o the_o same_o but_o whether_o in_o another_o kind_n of_o attribution_n that_o same_o matter_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n whether_o it_o be_v only_o the_o fruit_n or_o it_o be_v christ_n himself_o

the_o same_o rock_n but_o what_o will_v they_o do_v with_o these_o word_n of_o saint_n augustine_n in_o his_o 45._o treatise_n upon_o john_n loe_o the_o sign_n change_v faith_n remain_v there_o christ_n be_v the_o rock_n to_o we_o christ_n be_v that_o same_o that_o be_v set_v forth_o upon_o the_o altar_n and_o if_o thou_o look_v upon_o the_o visible_a form_n it_o be_v another_o thing_n but_o if_o upon_o the_o sensible_a signification_n they_o drink_v the_o same_o spiritual_a drink_n and_o in_o the_o 102._o epistle_n some_o time_n the_o thing_n which_o signify_v take_v the_o name_n of_o that_o thing_n which_o it_o signify_v for_o so_o the_o rock_n be_v christ_n because_o it_o signify_v christ_n to_o conclude_v the_o same_o interprete_v the_o spiritual_a rock_n mention_v in_o the_o 77._o psalm_n not_o christ_n himself_o as_o they_o do_v but_o such_o a_o rock_n as_o shall_v signify_v some_o spiritual_a thing_n question_n therefore_o proceed_v on_o answer_n so_o to_o conclude_v that_o bread_n be_v say_v to_o be_v the_o body_n give_v for_o we_o and_o that_o same_o cup_n to_o be_v the_o blood_n shed_v for_o us._n question_n but_o who_o do_v so_o expound_v this_o answer_n amongst_o the_o rest_n theodoret_n in_o his_o eranista_n by_o express_a word_n whereof_o we_o shall_v entreat_v more_o at_o large_a in_o his_o proper_a place_n 81._o question_n and_o be_v there_o any_o more_o answer_n the_o three_o kind_n of_o figurative_a sacramental_a speech_n be_v that_o whereby_o the_o effect_n of_o the_o thing_n signify_v be_v attribute_v to_o the_o outward_a sign_n or_o

now_o i_o entreat_v general_o of_o the_o sacrament_n in_o mean_a time_n know_v this_o that_o we_o neither_o fain_v any_o other_o body_n to_o christ_n then_o that_o same_o true_a body_n give_v for_o

so_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v that_o thou_o discern_v faith_n itself_o from_o that_o apprehension_n of_o christ_n through_o faith_n which_o be_v the_o spiritual_a eat_n question_n proceed_v on_o

85._o question_n but_o when_o thou_o shall_v say_v that_o the_o sacrament_n be_v add_v unto_o the_o simple_a word_n to_o the_o end_n the_o more_o plain_o to_o show_v forth_o the_o promise_n many_o

many_o precept_n concern_v this_o matter_n that_o orator_n do_v very_o well_o use_v figure_n not_o too_o darken_v but_o to_o set_v out_o and_o make_v more_o plain_a their_o speech_n now_o they_o be_v

then_o if_o any_o man_n shall_v use_v a_o plain_a and_o simple_a speech_n now_o forasmuch_o as_o the_o sacrament_n be_v therefore_o institute_v that_o they_o may_v lead_v our_o understanding_n too_o a_o other_o thing_n which_o by_o god_n ordinance_n they_o signify_v from_o that_o which_o they_o be_v by_o nature_n or_o rather_o that_o i_o may_v use_v the_o word_n of_o s._n augustine_n against_o
