wherefore_o as_o for_o saint_n cyprian_n rule_n eucharistia_n in_fw-la altari_fw-la consecratur_fw-la which_o doctor_n pocklington_n affirm_v to_o be_v undeniable_a we_o say_v it_o must_v stand_v with_o our_o saviour_n example_n who_o do_v administer_v the_o eucharist_n upon_o a_o real_a table_n but_o upon_o a_o imaginary_a altar_n and_o so_o we_o be_v not_o oppose_v to_o it_o but_o say_v

therefore_o since_o it_o be_v most_o impious_a to_o deny_v throne_n it_o be_v the_o like_a to_o deny_v altar_n i_o wish_v throne_n have_v be_v better_o prove_v for_o if_o throne_n do_v prove_v altar_n

sacred_a order_n we_o retain_v and_o honour_n and_o hold_v it_o as_o revenerd_a as_o either_o jew_n or_o papist_n do_v their_o sacrifice_a priesthood_n but_o what_o consequence_n be_v this_o no_o
