think_v and_o hold_v therein_o we_o be_v as_o i_o take_v it_o concern_v this_o word_n sacrament_n of_o one_o accord_n to_o wit_n that_o sacrament_n be_v sign_n visible_a by_o mean_n whereof_o the_o

that_o to_o the_o sacrament_n there_o be_v necessary_o require_v a_o celestial_a and_o supernatural_a mutation_n for_o we_o do_v not_o say_v that_o the_o water_n of_o the_o holy_a baptism_n be_v simple_o water_n but_o that_o it_o be_v a_o true_a sacrament_n of_o our_o regeneration_n and_o of_o the_o wash_n of_o our_o soul_n by_o the_o blood_n of_o jesus_n christ_n in_o like_a sort_n we_o do_v not_o say_v that_o in_o the_o holy_a supper_n of_o the_o lord_n the_o brrad_a be_v simple_o bread_n but_o that_o it_o be_v the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o precious_a body_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n which_o be_v deliver_v for_o us._n neither_o that_o wine_n be_v only_o and_o simple_o wine_n but_o that_o it_o be_v the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o precious_a blood_n which_o be_v shed_v for_o us._n but_o here_o with_o we_o do_v not_o say_v that_o this_o mutation_n be_v make_v in_o the_o substance_n of_o the_o sign_n but_o in_o the_o use_n and_o end_n for_o the_o which_o they_o be_v ordain_v neither_o do_v we_o say_v that_o they_o be_v make_v by_o virtue_n of_o certain_a word_n pronounce_v neither_o by_o the_o intent_n of_o he_o that_o pronounce_v the_o same_o but_o by_o the_o only_a power_n and_o will_n of_o he_o that_o ordain_v this_o heavenly_a and_o godly_a action_n who_o ordinance_n in_o this_o behalf_n aught_o to_o be_v rehearse_v with_o a_o loud_a voice_n and_o in_o such_o language_n as_o the_o assistaunte_n do_v understand_v to_o who_o it_o ought_v also_o to_o be_v plain_o expound_v to_o the_o intent_n they_o may_v understande_v it_o and_o receive_v it_o according_o and_o thus_o much_o concern_v the_o outward_a sign_n let_v we_o now_o come_v to_o that_o that_o be_v testify_v and_o exhibit_v of_o the_o lord_n by_o these_o sign_n we_o do_v not_o say_v as_o some_o for_o lack_v of_o good_a understanding_n of_o we_o do_v judge_n that_o we_o do_v teach_v that_o be_v to_o say_v that_o in_o the_o holy_a supper_n of_o the_o lord_n there_o be_v nothing_o but_o a_o simple_a and_o naked_a remembrance_n of_o the_o death_n of_o jesus_n christ_n neither_o do_v we_o say_v that_o by_o the_o say_v holy_a supper_n we_o be_v make_v partaker_n only_o of_o the_o fruit_n of_o his_o death_n and_o passion_n but_o we_o do_v join_v the_o ground_n with_o the_o fruit_n that_o come_v of_o it_o say_v with_o saint_n paul_n in_o his_o first_o epistle_n to_o the_o corinthian_n the_o ten_o chapter_n that_o the_o bread_n which_o we_o break_v in_o such_o sort_n as_o he_o have_v ordain_v be_v the_o communication_n of_o the_o very_a body_n of_o jesus_n christ_n that_o be_v deliver_v for_o us._n and_o the_o cup_n whereof_o we_o drink_v be_v the_o communication_n of_o the_o very_a blood_n that_o be_v shed_v for_o we_o yea_o in_o the_o same_o substance_n that_o he_o take_v in_o the_o womb_n of_o the_o virgin_n marie_n and_o that_o he_o carry_v from_o we_o into_o heaven_n and_o i_o pray_v you_o my_o lord_n in_o the_o name_n of_o god_n what_o can_v you_o seek_v or_o find_v in_o this_o holy_a sacrament_n but_o we_o do_v seek_v and_o sinde_v the_o same_o also_o i_o do_v understand_v what_o you_o will_v say_v straight_o some_o of_o you_o will_v require_v we_o to_o confess_v that_o the_o bread_n and_o wine_n be_v transfourm_v i_o say_v not_o into_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n for_o that_o have_v we_o confess_v all_o ready_a but_o into_o the_o very_a natural_a body_n &_o the_o proper_a and_o natural_a blood_n of_o christ_n other_o peradventure_o will_v not_o press_v we_o so_o narow_o but_o

which_o have_v no_o foundation_n upon_o the_o word_n of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o be_v never_o a_o whit_n necessary_a to_o make_v we_o partaker_n of_o the_o fruit_n of_o the_o sacrament_n if_o

the_o earth_n forsomuche_o as_o touch_v we_o we_o be_v upon_o the_o earth_n and_o so_o be_v the_o sacrament_n also_o and_o touch_v he_o his_o flesh_n be_v in_o heaven_n in_o such_o sort_n glorify_v that_o as_o saint_n augustine_n say_v have_v not_o take_v away_o the_o nature_n of_o a_o very_a body_n but_o have_v rydde_v from_o it_o all_o infirmity_n and_o imperfection_n belong_v natural_o
