here_o come_v in_o the_o necessity_n of_o faith_n concern_v the_o sacrament_n for_o they_o be_v both_o of_o they_o sacramenta_fw-la fi●●i_fw-la sacrament_n of_o faith_n so_o call_v by_o the_o father_n because_o the_o mystery_n in_o they_o contain_v be_v not_o to_o be_v judge_v by_o our_o sense_n nor_o discuss_v by_o reason_n but_o to_o be_v apprehend_v and_o receive_v by_o faith_n only_o in_o both_o the_o sacrament_n there_o be_v two_o thing_n to_o be_v consider_v there_o be_v a_o earthly_a thing_n which_o we_o see_v and_o feel_v with_o our_o outward_a sense_n and_o there_o be_v a_o heavenly_a and_o spiritual_a thing_n or_o grace_n which_o we_o can_v see_v but_o by_o faith_n both_o these_o part_n be_v inseparable_o unite_v and_o can_v be_v separate_v one_o from_o another_o he_o that_o be_v right_o fit_v for_o the_o receive_n of_o the_o sacrament_n do_v receive_v both_o these_o part_n together_o namely_o the_o earthly_a with_o the_o heavenly_a and_o the_o heavenly_a with_o the_o earthly_a which_o be_v so_o inseparable_o conjoin_v by_o god_n in_o a_o sacramental_a union_n that_o he_o that_o go_v about_o to_o separate_v they_o must_v needs_o run_v himself_o upon_o a_o curse_n but_o as_o we_o be_v not_o to_o divide_v and_o disjoin_v one_o part_n from_o a_o other_o so_o we_o must_v take_v heed_n that_o we_o do_v not_o confound_v they_o one_o with_o another_o but_o keep_v they_o distinct_a as_o for_o example_n we_o know_v that_o in_o the_o person_n of_o our_o saviour_n christ_n there_o be_v two_o several_a nature_n viz._n the_o godhead_n and_o the_o manhood_n the_o nature_n of_o man_n be_v not_o the_o nature_n of_o god_n nor_o be_v the_o nature_n of_o god_n the_o nature_n of_o man._n the_o one_o be_v not_o turn_v into_o the_o other_o neither_o be_v they_o blend_v and_o mingle_v one_o nature_n with_o the_o other_o but_o both_o remain_v distinct_a in_o the_o same_o person_n yet_o be_v they_o so_o indissoluble_o unite_v by_o personal_a union_n that_o death_n be_v not_o able_a to_o sunder_v or_o separate_v they_o for_o howsoever_o at_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n his_o soul_n be_v separate_v from_o his_o body_n and_o his_o body_n sunder_v from_o his_o soul_n yet_o even_o when_o he_o lie_v in_o the_o grave_n both_o the_o part_n of_o his_o humane_a nature_n body_n and_o soul_n be_v as_o near_o unite_v to_o his_o godhead_n as_o they_o be_v at_o his_o birth_n or_o be_v now_o in_o heaven_n so_o to_o restrain_v my_o speech_n to_o the_o communion_n there_o be_v two_o distinct_a and_o several_a thing_n in_o the_o sacrament_n a_o earthly_a as_o bread_n and_o wine_n and_o a_o heavenly_a sc_n the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n the_o body_n of_o christ_n be_v not_o turn_v into_o the_o bread_n neither_o be_v bread_n turn_v into_o the_o
