for_o st._n paul_n to_o declare_v to_o the_o corinthian_n this_o great_a and_o hide_a mystery_n if_o there_o be_v any_o but_o he_o declare_v the_o contrary_a tell_v they_o it_o be_v bread_n which_o

believe_v the_o bodily_a part_n of_o the_o papist_n devotion_n to_o this_o sacrament_n as_o also_o to_o the_o worship_v of_o saint_n with_o their_o shrine_n relic_n picture_n and_o such_o like_a be_v

sublime_a and_o difficult_a thing_n and_o require_v the_o spiritual_a sublimation_n of_o heart_n by_o grace_n and_o this_o be_v the_o reason_n of_o the_o jew_n so_o often_o and_o so_o easy_o fall_v away_o to_o the_o gross_a idolatry_n of_o the_o heathen_n and_o in_o a_o great_a measure_n operate_v in_o like_a manner_n on_o the_o papist_n and_o can_v we_o find_v any_o warrant_n in_o scripture_n to_o save_v our_o soul_n with_o such_o bodily_a worship_n i_o believe_v very_o few_o of_o we_o will_v be_v find_v so_o spiritual_a as_o not_o to_o incline_v to_o it_o wherefore_o let_v he_o that_o

fail_v they_o grant_v that_o there_o be_v no_o substantial_a change_n in_o the_o bread_n nor_o any_o consecration_n at_o all_o now_o consider_v how_o many_o careless_a dissolute_a yea_o and_o

once_o or_o twice_o a_o year_n now_o have_v the_o pope_n take_v away_o the_o bread_n also_o he_o may_v have_v give_v the_o very_a same_o reason_n for_o that_o as_o he_o do_v for_o take_v away_o the_o cup._n they_o give_v two_o reason_n first_o because_o it_o may_v happen_v that_o in_o deliver_v the_o cup_n to_o many_o people_n the_o wine_n which_o they_o call_v the_o blood_n may_v be_v spill_v why_o so_o in_o give_v the_o bread_n some_o crumb_n may_v fall_v and_o they_o affirm_v that_o christ_n body_n be_v entire_o contain_v in_o the_o least_o crumb_n second_o they_o say_v the_o people_n have_v the_o blood_n of_o christ_n in_o his_o body_n when_o they_o receive_v that_o and_o therefore_o they_o need_v it_o not_o again_o in_o the_o cup._n though_o it_o be_v apparent_a in_o scripture_n that_o our_o saviour_n give_v it_o in_o the_o cup_n apart_o to_o signify_v his_o bloodshedding_n from_o his_o body_n say_v this_o be_v my_o blood_n which_o be_v shed_v but_o it_o be_v no_o matter_n what_o our_o saviour_n say_v the_o pope_n say_v otherwise_o and_o we_o must_v hearken_v to_o he_o he_o say_v it_o be_v sufficient_a for_o the_o people_n to_o receive_v the_o blood_n in_o his_o body_n and_o so_o shall_v he_o say_v that_o he_o be_v the_o head_n of_o the_o church_n and_o if_o he_o alone_o receive_v the_o bread_n and_o cup_n and_o no_o other_o neither_o people_n nor_o priest_n receive_v either_o it_o be_v sufficient_a if_o the_o head_n receive_v they_o the_o head_n stand_v for_o the_o whole_a body_n the_o pope_n guide_v by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n say_v so_o and_o then_o who_o dare_v say_v otherwise_o and_o thus_o you_o see_v that_o if_o we_o once_o let_v go_v the_o scripture_n farewell_o all_o religion_n all_o the_o command_n of_o god_n be_v to_o small_a purpose_n
