but_o that_o be_v look_v upon_o with_o the_o aspect_n of_o our_o faith_n that_o be_v the_o lyvely_a bread_n indeed_o that_o descend_v from_o heaven_n and_o of_o the_o which_o it_o be_v true_o speak_v whosoever_o eat_v this_o bread_n shall_v never_o dye_v which_o be_v the_o body_n of_o christ_n also_o in_o the_o consequence_n where_o he_o speak_v of_o the_o omnipotenr_a virtue_n of_o christ_n he_o

not_o for_o it_o be_v hard_a to_o gyve_v new_a thing_n then_o to_o change_v nature_n saint_a ambrose_n say_v in_o the_o mystery_n of_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n there_o be_v a_o

appear_v visyble_a how_o and_o in_o what_o point_n here_o happen_v commutation_n for_o after_o the_o substance_n of_o the_o creature_n they_o be_v even_o the_o same_o thing_n after_o the_o

but_o the_o very_a natural_a flesh_n but_o this_o flesh_n which_o now_o contain_v the_o symylytude_n of_o the_o very_a flesh_n in_o mystery_n be_v not_o flesh_n in_o kind_n nor_o in_o for_o i_o but_o
