christ_n but_o only_o to_o observe_v something_o upon_o a_o question_n which_o be_v common_a enough_o viz._n why_o our_o lord_n do_v not_o ordain_v flesh_n rather_o than_o bread_n for_o to_o represent_v his_o body_n for_o it_o seem_v that_o this_o symbol_n shall_v be_v more_o analogick_n and_o significative_a according_a to_o the_o say_n of_o many_o it_o be_v forasmuch_o as_o flesh_n have_v serve_v in_o old_a time_n in_o the_o sacrifice_n and_o in_o the_o passeover_n and_o that_o it_o behoove_v that_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o christian_a church_n shall_v be_v of_o other_o element_n than_o those_o that_o have_v serve_v under_o the_o law_n but_o this_o answer_n be_v ill_o ground_v for_o 1._o the_o bread_n and_o wine_n be_v also_o use_v in_o sacrifice_n there_o be_v by_o name_n a_o oblation_n of_o bread_n and_o wine_n numb_a 15._o not_o to_o speak_v of_o the_o shewbread_n and_o of_o the_o offering_n of_o cake_n 2._o the_o element_n of_o water_n serve_v for_o legal_a purification_n under_o the_o law_n there_o be_v nothing_o so_o ordinary_a as_o the_o wash_n with_o water_n to_o signify_v the_o cleanse_n of_o the_o soul_n yet_o nevertheless_o god_n will_v that_o baptism_n shall_v be_v with_o water_n 3._o the_o contrary_n be_v rather_o true_a and_o this_o be_v that_o also_o which_o some_o ancient_a father_n say_v of_o it_o that_o in_o this_o action_n jesus_n christ_n use_v bread_n and_o wine_n because_o that_o these_o element_n have_v already_o be_v use_v under_o the_o law_n to_o represent_v his_o body_n and_o his_o blood_n and_o this_o to_o the_o end_n we_o shall_v know_v that_o it_o be_v the_o same_o christ_n represent_v by_o the_o same_o sign_n but_o why_o then_o have_v not_o the_o flesh_n of_o live_a creature_n as_o well_o place_n in_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o eucharist_n since_o it_o have_v represent_v christ_n in_o that_o of_o the_o passeover_n and_o in_o so_o many_o kind_n of_o sacrifice_n we_o say_v indeed_o that_o christ_n have_v rather_o choose_v bread_n because_o it_o be_v the_o most_o common_a and_o the_o most_o nourish_a food_n and_o so_o most_o proper_a to_o represent_v his_o body_n but_o this_o exclude_v not_o other_o reason_n which_o we_o may_v give_v thereof_o moreover_o the_o eucharist_n represent_v not_o the_o body_n of_o jesus_n christ_n simple_o as_o nourishment_n but_o also_o as_o dead_a now_o some_o may_v say_v which_o nevertheless_o be_v not_o without_o contradiction_n that_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n be_v in_o old_a time_n more_o ocular_o represent_v by_o the_o kill_n of_o a_o lamb_n than_o at_o this_o day_n by_o the_o break_n of_o bread_n so_o it_o be_v this_o be_v the_o point_n i_o be_o to_o handle_v that_o jesus_n christ_n institute_v sign_n of_o his_o dead_a body_n and_o of_o his_o blood_n shed_v do_v choose_v thing_n without_o life_n and_o element_n wherein_o there_o be_v not_o blood_n whereby_o he_o will_v show_v that_o after_o he_o no_o creature_n shall_v any_o more_o lose_v his_o life_n for_o the_o sin_n of_o man_n and_o that_o no_o other_o blood_n shall_v be_v shed_v in_o expiation_n for_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n be_v bloody_a to_o denote_v the_o blood_n which_o be_v to_o be_v shed_v by_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n but_o this_o effusion_n be_v make_v the_o sacrament_n which_o represent_v it_o as_o do_v and_o accomplish_v be_v without_o effusion_n of_o blood_n to_o show_v that_o there_o shall_v be_v no_o more_o blood_n shed_v for_o sin_n hence_o it_o be_v we_o have_v no_o more_o a_o sacrament_n which_o require_v the_o kill_n of_o any_o creature_n but_o sign_n wherein_o death_n do_v not_o intervene_v as_o be_v of_o themselves_o without_o life_n and_o of_o another_o substance_n than_o of_o flesh_n and_o blood_n chap._n xvii_o the_o nine_o consideration_n upon_o the_o word_n of_o jesus_n christ_n man_n principal_o the_o common_a people_n do_v natural_o love_v similitude_n because_o they_o be_v draw_v from_o thing_n

thing_n be_v but_o what_o it_o resemble_v so_o our_o lord_n will_v not_o tell_v we_o simple_o that_o his_o body_n have_v resemblance_n unto_o bread_n nor_o only_a that_o the_o bread_n be_v a_o seal_n unto_o we_o of_o the_o communion_n of_o his_o body_n but_o also_o have_v show_v we_o the_o cause_n and_o quality_n of_o this_o communion_n these_o word_n to_o eat_v the_o body_n of_o jesus_n christ_n signify_v not_o only_o to_o take_v it_o for_o the_o sustenance_n of_o our_o soul_n as_o we_o take_v food_n for_o the_o nourishment_n of_o our_o body_n this_o similitude_n if_o we_o specify_v no_o more_o teach_v we_o but_o very_o general_o the_o nature_n of_o this_o communion_n and_o do_v not_o set_v forth_o the_o entire_a sense_n of_o the_o word_n of_o jesus_n christ_n for_o in_o the_o

matter_n i_o have_v already_o say_v that_o the_o word_n eat_v be_v attribute_v to_o the_o communion_n of_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n which_o be_v as_o much_o as_o to_o say_v that_o this_o communion_n

that_o which_o the_o law_n forbid_v we_o to_o wit_n the_o eat_n of_o the_o flesh_n offer_v for_o our_o sin_n they_o who_o content_n themselves_o with_o the_o general_a similitude_n between_o the_o food_n of_o the_o body_n and_o the_o nourishment_n of_o the_o soul_n attain_v not_o unto_o the_o specific_a difference_n of_o the_o subject_n of_o the_o eucharist_n but_o i_o have_v yet_o somewhat_o to_o say_v of_o a_o abuse_n which_o be_v commit_v in_o the_o deduction_n of_o this_o similitude_n for_o as_o many_o omit_v that_o which_o be_v contain_v in_o the_o word_n of_o the_o holy_a supper_n
