frame_v their_o life_n and_o action_n according_a to_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n which_o word_n say_v the_o doctor_n relate_v not_o only_o to_o their_o moral_a conversation_n as_o good_a man_n but_o to_o their_o carriage_n in_o respect_n of_o god_n public_a worship_n as_o religious_a man_n but_o by_o this_o gloss_n i_o doubt_v he_o corrupt_v the_o text_n of_o the_o author_n sure_o i_o be_o the_o

that_o the_o patriarch_n before_o moses_n worship_v god_n according_a to_o a_o voluntary_a kind_n of_o piety_n which_o be_v by_o the_o apostle_n in_o express_a term_n condemn_v col._n 2._o 23._o and_o if_o their_o worship_n have_v relation_n to_o the_o messiah_n that_o be_v to_o come_v wherein_o all_o divine_n i_o presume_v agree_v i_o do_v not_o see_v how_o he_o can_v affirm_v that_o they_o

it_o be_v indeed_o say_v of_o abraham_n that_o he_o see_v the_o day_n of_o christ_n and_o rejoice_v no_o doubt_n but_o the_o same_o may_v as_o true_o be_v verify_v of_o all_o the_o other_o believe_v

the_o doctor_n can_v produce_v i_o so_o much_o as_o one_o good_a author_n who_o ever_o affirm_v it_o but_o on_o the_o other_o side_n with_o one_o consent_n they_o teach_v that_o as_o in_o moral_a action_n they_o live_v according_a to_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n so_o in_o religious_a they_o be_v in_o a_o special_a manner_n inspire_v and_o direct_v by_o god_n himself_o if_o that_o of_o the_o apostle_n be_v true_a 6_o that_o whatsoever_o be_v not_o of_o faith_n be_v sin_n and_o again_o that_o without_o faith_n it_o be_v impossible_a to_o please_v god_n faith_n be_v ground_v upon_o the_o commandment_n and_o promise_n of_o god_n it_o can_v be_v that_o their_o worship_n shall_v be_v acceptable_a unto_o he_o without_o special_a command_n from_o he_o from_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n in_o general_a the_o doctor_n descend_v to_o the_o particular_a by_o way_n of_o sacrifice_n affirm_v that_o it_o be_v likewise_o ground_v upon_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n which_o if_o it_o be_v so_o undoubted_o it_o bind_v all_o man_n the_o law_n of_o nature_n be_v common_a to_o all_o and_o consequent_o to_o we_o christian_n as_o well_o as_o to_o the_o patriarch_n before_o moses_n now_o that_o some_o kind_n of_o sacrifice_n be_v f●om_n all_o man_n due_a unto_o almighty_a god_n i_o do_v not_o deny_v but_o that_o outward_a sacrifice_n proper_o so_o call_v which_o be_v the_o point_n in_o controversy_n shall_v be_v from_o all_o man_n due_a unto_o he_o by_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n that_o i_o very_o much_o doubt_v it_o be_v the_o conclusion_n of_o aqu●nas_n 3._o omnes_fw-la

read_v that_o by_o faith_n he_o offer_v unto_o god_n a_o more_o excellent_a sacrifice_n than_o cain_n 4._o now_o faith_n there_o can_v be_v without_o obedience_n nor_o true_a obedience_n without_o a_o

at_o all_o i_o thereunto_o answer_v that_o although_o cain_n do_v not_o offer_v by_o faith_n or_o inspiration_n from_o god_n yet_o it_o may_v well_o be_v that_o he_o do_v it_o by_o instruction_n

somewhat_o of_o all_o three_o kind_n and_o as_o little_a doubt_n but_o that_o it_o be_v in_o all_o three_o respect_n significative_a of_o christ_n to_o come_v the_o doctor_n three_o instance_n be_v in_o melchisedech_n who_o indeed_o be_v say_v to_o have_v be_v a_o priest_n of_o the_o most_o high_a god_n and_o that_o be_v a_o priest_n he_o offer_v sacrifice_n i_o make_v no_o doubt_n but_o very_o much_o doubt_v whether_o he_o offer_v sacrifice_n or_o be_v a_o priest_n by_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n especial_o consider_v that_o christ_n himself_o be_v a_o priest_n after_o the_o order_n of_o melchisedech_n now_o whereas_o the_o doctor_n confident_o make_v sem_n to_o have_v be_v the_o elder_a son_n of_o noah_n he_o have_v therein_o against_o he_o not_o only_o the_o learned_a junius_n but_o lyranus_n tostatus_n genebrard_n and_o the_o hebrew_n doctor_n and_o again_o whereas_o he_o seem_v to_o follow_v the_o common_a opinion_n heretofore_o receive_v that_o melchisedech_n be_v sem_n i_o think_v he_o can_v be_v ignorant_a that_o both_o paraeus_n and_o pererius_n have_v prove_v the_o contrary_a by_o so_o invincible_a argument_n as_o there_o need_v no_o further_a doubt_n to_o be_v make_v thereof_o the_o doctor_n conclusion_n of_o this_o argument_n draw_v from_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n be_v this_o that_o there_o be_v never_o any_o nation_n but_o have_v some_o religion_n nor_o any_o religion_n if_o man_n civilise_v but_o have_v altar_n priest_n and_o sacrifice_n as_o a_o part_n thereof_o or_o dependent_n thereupon_o the_o former_a part_n of_o which_o position_n i_o will_v not_o examine_v though_o our_o planter_n in_o virginia_n and_o new-england_n can_v not_o as_o they_o report_v find_v any_o act_n of_o religion_n exercise_v by_o the_o native_n of_o those_o country_n but_o for_o the_o latter_a part_n thereof_o i_o know_v not_o why_o he_o shall_v exclude_v the_o

otherwise_o the_o sacrifice_n itself_o can_v be_v proper_a which_o assertion_n will_v of_o necessity_n infer_v either_o the_o transubstantiation_n of_o the_o pontisician_n or_o the_o c_n consubstantiation_n of_o the_o ubiquitary_n and_o again_o if_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n be_v the_o subject_a matter_n of_o the_o sacrifice_n it_o must_v be_v visible_o and_o sensible_o there_o according_a to_o bellarmine_n own_o definition_n before_o lay_v down_o neither_o will_v it_o suffice_v to_o say_v as_o he_o do_v that_o it_o be_v visible_a under_o the_o species_n of_o bread_n and_o wine_n for_o so_o it_o may_v be_v visible_a to_o the_o faith_n of_o those_o that_o believe_v it_o but_o to_o the_o sense_n which_o be_v the_o thing_n he_o require_v as_o a_o necessary_a condition_n in_o a_o sacrifice_n proper_o so_o call_v it_o be_v not_o visible_a neither_o can_v that_o be_v say_v proper_o visible_a which_o be_v not_o so_o in_o itself_o but_o in_o another_o thing_n for_o then_o the_o soul_n may_v be_v say_v to_o be_v visible_a though_o it_o be_v only_o see_v in_o the_o body_n and_o not_o in_o itself_o nay_o the_o soul_n may_v better_o be_v say_v to_o be_v see_v in_o the_o body_n than_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n in_o the_o bread_n in_o as_o much_o as_o the_o soul_n be_v the_o essential_a form_n of_o the_o body_n but_o i_o trust_v they_o will_v not_o say_v that_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n be_v so_o in_o regard_n of_o the_o accident_n of_o bread_n last_o how_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n may_v be_v true_o and_o proper_o say_v so_o to_o be_v

christ_n be_v consume_v in_o the_o sacrifice_n not_o secundum_fw-la esse_fw-la naturale_fw-la but_o sacramentale_n can_v reach_v to_o his_o phrase_n of_o planè_fw-la destruitur_fw-la substantia_fw-la consumitur_fw-la as_o any_o weak_a scholar_n may_v easy_o discern_v and_o in_o truth_n he_o do_v in_o the_o explication_n of_o this_o point_n touch_v the_o essence_n of_o this_o sacrifice_n wherein_o it_o consist_v and_o the_o manner_n of_o consume_v the_o body_n of_o christ_n therein_o so_o double_a and_o stagger_v as_o a_o man_n may_v well_o see_v he_o be_v much_o perplex_v therein_o 27._o wander_v up_o and_o down_o in_o a_o labyrinth_n not_o know_v which_o way_n to_o get_v out_o and_o so_o e_o i_o leave_v he_o the_o other_o defect_n which_o i_o find_v in_o the_o doctor_n discourse_n touch_v this_o point_n be_v that_o he_o do_v not_o show_v we_o how_o a_o commemorative_a or_o representative_a sacrifice_n as_o he_o everywhere_o term_n it_o be_v a_o sacrifice_n proper_o so_o call_v this_o proposition_n that_o the_o eucharist_n be_v a_o commemorative_a sacrifice_n proper_o so_o call_v i_o shall_v easy_o grant_v if_o the_o word_n proper_o be_v refer_v to_o the_o adjunct_n not_o to_o the_o subject_a commemorative_a it_o be_v proper_o call_v but_o improper_o a_o sacrifice_n and_o herein_o i_o think_v do_v all_o writer_n agree_v as_o well_o romish_a as_o reform_a i_o mean_v that_o it_o be_v a_o sacrifice_n commemorative_a and_o therefore_o bellarmine_n dispute_v the_o point_n in_o no_o less_o than_o 27._o chapter_n of_o his_o first_o book_n de_fw-fr missa_fw-la against_o the_o reform_a divine_n to_o prove_v that_o it_o be_v a_o sacrifice_n proper_o so_o call_v and_o yet_o acknowledge_v that_o his_o adversary_n confess_v it_o to_o be_v a_o sacrifice_n commemorative_a but_o himself_o and_o his_o adherent_n though_o together_o with_o the_o protestant_n they_o acknowledge_v it_o to_o be_v a_o sacrifice_n commemorative_a yet_o they_o rest_v not_o in_o that_o because_o they_o know_v full_a well_o it_o be_v not_o sufficient_a to_o denominate_v it_o a_o proper_a sacrifice_n and_o in_o very_a truth_n it_o stand_v with_o great_a reason_n that_o the_o commemoration_n or_o representation_n of_o a_o thing_n shall_v be_v both_o in_o nature_n and_o propriety_n of_o speech_n distinct_a from_o the_o thing_n it_o commemorate_v or_o represent_v as_o for_o the_o purpose_n he_o who_o represent_v a_o king_n upon_o the_o stagef_n be_v common_o call_v a_o king_n yet_o in_o propriety_n of_o speech_n he_o can_v be_v so_o term_v unless_o he_o likewise_o be_v a_o king_n in_o his_o own_o person_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v that_o we_o confess_v the_o jewish_a sacrifice_n to_o be_v proper_o so_o term_v because_o they_o be_v not_o only_o prefigurative_a of_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o christ_n upon_o the_o cross_n but_o be_v real_o and_o absolute_o so_o in_o themselves_o and_o if_o this_o can_v once_o be_v sound_o demonstrate_v of_o the_o eucharist_n the_o controversy_n will_v soon_o be_v at_o a_o end_n but_o till_o then_o in_o say_v we_o have_v a_o representative_a sacrifice_n can_v no_o more_o prove_v it_o to_o be_v a_o sacrifice_n proper_o so_o call_v than_o the_o prefiguration_n of_o the_o jewish_a sacrifice_n without_o any_o further_a addition_n can_v prove_v they_o so_o to_o be_v which_o i_o presume_v no_o divine_a will_v take_v upon_o
