they_o be_v refresh_v &_o have_v everlasting_a life_n and_o therefore_o say_v saint_n augustyne_n 57_o that_o when_o other_o apostle_n do_v eat_v bread_n that_o be_v the_o lord_n yet_o judas_n do_v

they_o be_v not_o the_o same_o thing_n in_o deed_n as_o every_o good_a friday_n as_o often_o as_o it_o return_v from_o year_n to_o year_n we_o call_v it_o the_o day_n of_o christ_n passion_n and_o
