eat_v of_o the_o loaf_n the_o flame_n o_o my_o god_n it_o be_v not_o enough_o to_o seek_v christ_n to_o take_v pain_n after_o he_o but_o to_o consider_v our_o end_n and_o de●●res_n we_o may_v seek_v

because_o you_o do_v eat_v of_o the_o loaf_n the_o loaf_n be_v the_o dole_n we_o follow_v he_o for_o therefore_o in_o all_o adherence_n and_o address_n to_o he_o see_v that_o there_o be_v no_o loaf_n in_o the_o way_n see_v that_o it_o be_v not_o his_o provision_n more_o than_o himself_o yet_o lord_n now_o let_v i_o follow_v thou_o for_o thy_o loaf_n and_o not_o because_o of_o thy_o miracle_n for_o
