offer_v all_o that_o they_o have_v but_o only_o a_o small_a portion_n reserve_v the_o far_o great_a part_n for_o themselves_o as_o jacob_n say_v in_o his_o vow_n unto_o god_n i_o will_v offer_v thou_o the_o tithe_n or_o the_o ten_o part_n of_o all_o the_o thing_n that_o thou_o shall_v give_v i_o what_o great_a thing_n be_v it_o that_o a_o man_n unto_o he_o that_o give_v all_o return_v back_o again_o the_o ten_o part_n thereof_o by_o way_n of_o gratitude_n retain_v nine_o part_n for_o himself_o wherefore_o this_o kind_n of_o gratitude_n be_v more_o esteem_v by_o the_o inward_a affection_n of_o thanksgiving_n in_o token_n whereof_o the_o sacrifice_n be_v offer_v they_o by_o the_o value_n and_o sufficiency_n of_o the_o gift_n but_o in_o our_o most_o divine_a sacrifice_n we_o offer_v a_o thing_n of_o far_o great_a price_n they_o be_v all_o that_o which_o he_o have_v give_v we_o because_o we_o offer_v he_o his_o very_a son_n who_o also_o he_o give_v we_o that_o we_o may_v offer_v he_o

less_o than_o the_o benefit_n they_o receive_v of_o god_n to_o supply_v which_o defect_n we_o offer_v the_o affection_n &_o the_o gratitude_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ._n for_o he_o know_v

the_o three_o title_n of_o satisfaction_n for_o sin_n the_o difference_n be_v perspicuous_a betwixt_o the_o ancient_a sacrifice_n and_o this_o because_o they_o be_v not_o sufficient_a to_o satisfy_v for_o one_o only_a sin_n as_o the_o apostle_n saint_n paul_n many_o time_n affirm_v special_o in_o his_o epistle_n to_o the_o hebrew_n where_o he_o say_v that_o it_o be_v impossible_a that_o by_o the_o blood_n of_o bull_n or_o goat_n sin_n shall_v be_v abolish_v and_o in_o the_o same_o chapter_n he_o write_v to_o the_o same_o effect_n every_o priest_n be_v occupy_v in_o offer_v again_o &_o again_o the_o same_o victime_n or_o sacrifice_n but_o this_o priest_n christ_n jesus_n have_v offer_v one_o sacrifice_n sit_v for_o ever_o at_o the_o right-hand_a of_o god_n for_o this_o respect_n the_o same_o apostle_n call_v they_o many_o time_n weak_a sacrifice_n impotent_a and_o defectuous_a infirma_fw-la &_o egena_fw-la elementa_fw-la and_o not_o only_o this_o be_v so_o but_o also_o all_o creature_n put_v together_o be_v not_o able_a of_o themselves_o to_o satisfy_v for_o one_o only_a sin_n whereas_o our_o great_a highpriest_n christ_n jesus_n by_o one_o only_a sacrifice_n satisfy_v for_o all_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o world_n and_o of_o a_o thousand_o world_n be_v there_o so_o many_o &_o this_o satisfaction_n be_v not_o only_o sufficient_a but_o also_o abundant_a not_o only_o

una_fw-la oblatione_fw-la consummavit_fw-la in_o aeternum_fw-la sanctificatos_fw-la by_o one_o oblation_n he_o consummate_v for_o ever_o the_o sanctification_n of_o man_n which_o most_o sufficient_a &_o superabundant_a satisfaction_n he_o apply_v efficacious_o unto_o we_o as_o often_o as_o we_o do_v offer_v the_o most_o holy_a sacrifice_n of_o the_o mass_n this_o be_v the_o reason_n that_o the_o most_o holy_a council_n of_o trent_n define_v that_o this_o sacrifice_n be_v true_o propitiatory_a because_o god_n by_o this_o oblation_n appease_v by_o grant_v the_o grace_n and_o gift_n of_o penance_n pardon_v main_n and_o heinous_a crime_n hence_o it_o be_v that_o a_o most_o grave_a &_o devout_a author_n affirm_v that_o a_o man_n have_v commit_v many_o &_o most_o grievous_a sin_n by_o one_o only_a mass_n which_o he_o shall_v say_v with_o the_o convenient_a disposition_n if_o there_o be_v no_o default_n on_o his_o part_n may_v be_v as_o perfect_o free_v from_o they_o all_o by_o virtue_n of_o the_o sacrifice_n as_o he_o be_v before_o he_o sin_v so_o that_o he_o may_v straight_o enter_v into_o heaven_n without_o any_o impediment_n and_o herein_o he_o utter_v a_o most_o certain_a truth_n because_o the_o virtue_n and_o efficacy_n of_o the_o sacrifice_n as_o for_o within_o itself_o have_v no_o limitation_n nor_o any_o measure_n but_o that_o which_o the_o meanness_n of_o man_n disposition_n give_v unto_o it_o wherefore_o the_o holy_a council_n of_o trent_n say_v absolute_o and_o without_o restraint_n that_o by_o the_o virtue_n of_o this_o divine_a sacrifice_n all_o our_o sin_n be_v pardon_v how_o heinous_a soever_o in_o the_o form_n of_o consecration_n christ_n likewise_o say_v and_o we_o repeat_v the_o same_o daily_a in_o his_o name_n that_o this_o be_v
