against_o the_o nature_n of_o a_o sacrament_n which_o consist_v in_o receive_v for_o the_o main_a difference_n between_o a_o sacrifice_n and_o a_o sacrament_n be_v that_o in_o the_o one_o we_o give_v

this_o of_o manna_n in_o the_o wilderness_n and_o i_o make_v no_o question_n but_o the_o search_a and_o suit_v of_o allegory_n in_o these_o two_o kind_n be_v allowable_a and_o profitable_a but_o this_o be_v the_o error_n of_o allegorizer_n they_o seek_v allegory_n where_o they_o be_v not_o but_o where_o they_o be_v they_o seldom_o look_v for_o they_o for_o although_o the_o body_n and_o verity_n be_v of_o itself_o more_o clear_a and_o evident_a than_o the_o shadow_n yet_o always_o a_o comparison_n afford_v more_o light_a than_o a_o single_a contemplation_n now_o because_o the_o
