hereto_o i_o can_v add_v some_o reason_n for_o y_o e_o excellency_n of_o baptism_n i_o tro●e_v it_o be_v more_o to_o be_v get_v then_o to_o be_v nourish_v as_o for_o the_o excellent_a miracle_n of_o

of_o the_o supper_n it_o be_v a_o plain_a sign_n of_o antichrist_n reason_n to_o deny_v the_o substance_n of_o bread_n and_o wine_n to_o be_v in_o the_o lord_n supper_n after_o consecration_n for_o in_o so_o do_v and_o grant_v transubstantiation_n the_o property_n of_o the_o humane_a nature_n of_o christ_n be_v deny_v for_o it_o be_v not_o of_o the_o humane_a nature_n but_o of_o the_o divine_a

but_o his_o truth_n be_v in_o all_o place_n reason_n if_o there_o be_v no_o substance_n of_o bread_n in_o the_o sacrament_n but_o transubstantiation_n than_o christ_n body_n be_v receyve_v of_o the_o

a_o figurative_a speech_n but_o also_o against_o the_o plain_a scripture_n which_o affirm_v they_o to_o dwell_v in_o christ_n and_o christ_n in_o they_o and_o they_o to_o have_v everlasting_a life_n that_o eat_v he_o which_o the_o wicked_a have_v not_o although_o they_o eat_v the_o sacrament_n he_o that_o eat_v of_o this_o bread_n say_v christ_n shall_v live_v for_o evermore_o therefore_o they_o

in_o christ_n which_o thing_n the_o wicked_a do_v not_o because_o they_o want_v faith_n and_o the_o holy_a spirit_n which_o be_v the_o mean_n whereby_o christ_n be_v receive_v to_o the_o thing_n which_o i_o have_v bring_v héerefoorth_o to_o improve_v transubstantiation_n i_o can_v bring_v in_o the_o father_n to_o confirm_v the_o same_o which_o succeed_v continual_o many_o hundred_o year_n after_o christ_n also_o i_o can_v show_v that_o transubstantiation_n be_v but_o a_o new_a doctrine_n not_o establish_v before_o satan_n which_o be_v tie_v for_o a_o thousand_o year_n be_v let_v

but_o for_o time_n sake_n i_o must_v omit_v it_o only_o for_o god_n sake_n see_v this_o that_o this_o their_o doctrine_n of_o transubstantiation_n be_v a_o untrueth_n already_o i_o have_v prove_v and_o forget_v not_o that_o it_o be_v the_o whole_a stay_n of_o all_o popery_n and_o the_o pillar_n of_o their_o priesthood_n whereby_o christ_n priesthood_n sacrifice_n ministry_n &_o truth_n be_v let_v yea_o pervert_v and_o utter_o overthrow_v god_n our_o father_n in_o the_o blood_n of_o his_o son_n christ_n open_v the_o eye_n and_o mind_n of_o all_o our_o magistrate_n all_o other_o that_o bear_v the_o name_n of_o christ_n to_o see_v to_o it_o in_o time_n to_o god_n glory_n and_o their_o own_o salvation_n amen_n now_o to_o return_v to_o the_o second_o matter_n what_o the_o sacrament_n be_v you_o see_v that_o to_o the_o sense_n and_o reason_n of_o man_n it_o be_v bread_n and_o wine_n which_o be_v most_o true_a as_o by_o the_o scripture_n and_o otherwise_o i_o have_v already_o prove_v and_o therefore_o away_o with_o transubstantiation_n but_o here_o lest_o we_o shall_v make_v it_o no_o sacrament_n for_o a_o sacrament_n consist_v of_o two_o thing_n and_o lest_o a_o man_n shall_v by_o this_o gather_v that_o we_o make_v it_o none_o other_o thing_n but_o bare_a bread_n and_o a_o naked_a sign_n and_o so_o rail_v at_o their_o pleasure_n on_o we_o say_v how_o can_v a_o man_n be_v guilty_a of_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n by_o unworthy_a receive_n of_o it_o if_o it_o be_v but_o bare_a bread_n &_o so_o forth_o for_o this_o purpose_n i_o will_v now_o speak_v a_o little_a more_o héereabout_o by_o god_n grace_n to_o stop_v their_o mouth_n and_o to_o stir_v up_o your_o good_a heart_n more_o to_o the_o worthy_a estimation_n and_o perception_n of_o this_o holy_a mystery_n when_o a_o love_a friend_n give_v to_o thou_o a_o thing_n or_o send_v to_o thou_o a_o token_n as_o for_o a_o example_n a_o napkin_n or_o such_o like_a i_o think_v thou_o do_v not_o as_o thou_o shall_v do_v if_o that_o with_o the_o thing_n thou_o consider_v not_o the_o mind_n of_o thy_o friend_n that_o send_v or_o give_v the_o thing_n and_o according_a thereunto_o esteem_v and_o receyve_v it_o and_o so_o of_o this_o bread_n think_v i_o that_o if_o thou_o do_v not_o rather_o consider_v the_o mind_n of_o thy_o lover_n christ_n than_o the_o thing_n which_o thou_o sée_v yea_o if_o thou_o do_v not_o altogether_o consider_v christ_n mind_n thou_o deal_v unhonest_o and_o strumpetlike_a with_o he_o for_o it_o be_v the_o property_n of_o strumpet_n to_o consider_v the_o thing_n give_v and_o send_v they_o rather_o than_o the_o love_n and_o mind_n of_o the_o give●_n &_o sender_n whereas_o the_o true_a lover_n do_v not_o consider_v in_o any_o point_n the_o thing_n give_v or_o send_v but_o the_o mind_n of_o the_o party_n so_o we_o if_o we_o be_v true_a lover_n of_o christ_n must_v not_o consider_v bare_o the_o outward_a thing_n which_o we_o see_v and_o our_o sense_n perceive_v but_o rather_o altogether_o we_o must_v and_o shall_v see_v &_o consider_v the_o mind_n of_o christ_n and_o hereafter_o and_o according_o to_o it_o to_o esteem_v the_o sacrament_n but_o how_o shall_v we_o know_v the_o mind_n of_o christ_n forsooth_o as_o a_o man_n mind_n be_v best_a know_v by_o his_o word_n so_o by_o christ_n word_n shall_v we_o know_v his_o mind_n now_o his_o word_n be_v manifest_a and_o most_o plain_a this_o say_v he_o be_v my_o body_n therefore_o according_o shall_v we_o esteem_v take_v and_o receive_v it_o if_o he_o have_v speak_v nothing_o or_o if_o he_o have_v speak_v doubtful_o then_o may_v we_o have_v be_v in_o some_o doubt_n but_o in_o that_o he_o speak_v so_o plain_o say_v this_o be_v my_o body_n who_o can_v may_v or_o dare_v be_v so_o bold_a as_o to_o doubt_v of_o it_o he_o be_v the_o truth_n and_o can_v not_o lie_v he_o be_v omnipotent_a and_o can_v do_v all_o thing_n therefore_o it_o be_v his_o body_n this_o i_o believe_v this_o i_o confess_v and_o pray_v you_o all_o hearty_o to_o beware_v of_o these_o and_o such_o like_a word_n that_o it_o be_v but_o a_o sign_n or_o a_o figure_n of_o his_o body_n except_o you_o will_v

into_o a_o serpent_n but_o concern_v the_o sacrament_n neither_o the_o sense_n see_v any_o other_o thing_n than_o bread_n neither_o be_v there_o any_o mention_n make_v of_o turn_v and_o therefore_o their_o cavil_n be_v plain_o see_v to_o be_v but_o a_o cavil_n transubstantiation_n and_o of_o no_o force_n but_o to_o come_v again_o to_o bring_v more_o reason_n against_o transubstantiation_n second_o that_o the_o substance_n of_o bread_n remain_v still_o the_o very_a text_n do_v teach_v for_o the_o evangelist_n and_o the_o apostle_n saint_n paul_n do_v witness_n 11_o that_o christ_n give_v that_o to_o his_o disciple_n and_o call_v it_o his_o body_n which_o he_o take_v on_o which_o he_o give_v thanks_n and_o which_o he_o break_v but_o he_o take_v bread_n give_v thanks_n on_o bread_n and_o break_v bread_n ergo_fw-la he_o give_v bread_n and_o call_v bread_n his_o body_n as_o he_o call_v the_o cup_n the_o new_a testament_n so_o that_o it_o follow_v by_o this_o that_o there_o be_v no_o transubstantiation_n and_o this_o reason_n i_o myself_o have_v promise_v in_o writing_n to_o prove_v by_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o father_n namely_o ireneus_fw-la tertullian_n origine_fw-la cyprian_n epiphanius_n hieronimus_fw-la augustinus_n theodorete_n cirill_n bede_n if_o so_o be_v i_o may_v have_v the_o use_n of_o my_o book_n three_o that_o in_o the_o sacrament_n there_o be_v no_o transubstantiation_n of_o the_o bread_n 1●_n by_o this_o reason_n i_o do_v prove_v like_v as_o by_o our_o saviour_n christ_n the_o spirit_n of_o truth_n speak_v of_o the_o bread_n this_o be_v my_o body_n so_o say_v the_o same_o spirit_n of_o truth_n of_o the_o same_o bread_n that_o we_o many_o be_v one_o body_n and_o one_o bread_n etc._n etc._n so_o that_o as_o it_o appear_v the_o sacrament_n not_o to_o be_v in_o the_o church_n by_o transubstantiation_n even_o so_o be_v it_o not_o christ_n natural_a body_n by_o transubstantiation_n transubstantiation_n four_o i_o prove_v that_o there_o be_v no_o transubstantiation_n by_o luke_n and_o paul_n word_n speak_v over_o the_o cup_n for_o no_o less_o be_v they_o effectual_a to_o transsubstantiate_v the_o cup_n then_o their_o word_n speak_v of_o the_o bread_n be_v operatorious_a and_o mighty_a to_o transsubstantiate_v the_o bread_n for_o as_o they_o say_v of_o the_o bread_n this_o be_v my_o body_n so_o say_v they_o of_o the_o cup_n this_o cup_n be_v the_o new_a testament_n which_o thing_n be_v absurd_a to_o be_v speak_v or_o think_v either_o of_o the_o cup_n or_o of_o the_o thing_n in_o the_o cup_n by_o transubstantiation_n yea_o rather_o in_o say_v these_o word_n this_o cup_n be_v the_o new_a testament_n we_o be_v teach_v by_o their_o couple_v this_o word_n cup_n to_o the_o demonstrative_a this_o

so_o we_o right_o eat_v the_o sacrament_n by_o faith_n turn_v into_o the_o nature_n of_o christ_n so_o that_o it_o be_v plain_a to_o they_o that_o will_v see_v that_o to_o take_v the_o substance_n of_o bread_n away_o be_v clean_o against_o the_o nature_n and_o property_n of_o a_o sacrament_n i_o will_v speak_v nothing_o how_o that_o this_o their_o doctrine_n of_o transubstantiation_n beside_o

in_o he_o and_o he_o in_o we_o but_o without_o transubstantiation_n reason_n as_o for_o the_o cavil_n they_o make_v that_o we_o be_v baptize_v into_o one_o body_n mean_v thereby_o the_o mystical_a

give_v unto_o man_n the_o former_a to_o be_v the_o end_n wherefore_o christ_n do_v institute_v this_o sacrament_n he_o himself_o do_v teach_v we_o say_v do_v you_o this_o in_o remembrance_n of_o i_o the_o latter_a the_o apostle_n do_v no_o less_o set_v forth_o in_o say_v the_o bread_n which_o we_o break_v be_v it_o not_o the_o partake_n or_o communion_n of_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n be_v not_o

a_o little_a will_v i_o speak_v of_o the_o commodity_n come_v unto_o we_o by_o the_o partake_n and_o communion_n we_o have_v with_o christ_n first_o it_o teach_v we_o that_o no_o man_n can_v
