be_v that_o the_o priest_n confirm_v the_o answer_n which_o we_o make_v concern_v our_o give_a thanks_o to_o god_n tell_v we_o very_o it_o be_v meet_a and_o just_a right_o and_o wholesome_a to_o do_v

because_o he_o be_v our_o soul_n medicine_n again_o meet_v because_o out_o of_o his_o mercy_n and_o pleasure_n he_o have_v create_v we_o just_o because_o out_o of_o pure_a goodness_n he_o have_v redeem_a we_o right_o because_o he_o have_v free_o and_o gratis_o justify_v we_o wholesome_a because_o he_o have_v predestinate_v we_o to_o glory_n and_o he_o invite_v we_o always_o to_o praise_n god_n by_o declare_v that_o he_o be_v our_o holy_a lord_n omnipotent_a father_n and_o eternal_a god_n for_o all_o sanctity_n come_v from_o he_o and_o by_o his_o power_n alone_o this_o sacrifice_n be_v institute_v who_o fruit_n be_v eternity_n and_o then_o tell_v the_o mean_n to_o do_v it_o effectual_o by_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n the_o second_o consideration_n be_v that_o the_o angel_n and_o all_o the_o whole_a court_n of_o heaven_n do_v adore_v and_o with_o mutual_a concord_n and_o consent_n by_o inflame_a lay_n of_o charity_n do_v celebrate_v god_n praise_n and_o glory_n this_o the_o church_n propound_v unto_o we_o for_o imitation_n for_o if_o these_o heavenly_a spirit_n do_v continual_o praise_v god_n because_o they_o be_v always_o in_o his_o presence_n the_o church_n insinuate_v thereby_o the_o great_a reverence_n adoration_n and_o honour_n we_o ought_v to_o give_v to_o our_o god_n in_o the_o holy_a sacrament_n of_o the_o eucharist_n which_o if_o we_o do_v all_o these_o supernal_a spirit_n will_v help_v we_o in_o this_o action_n that_o as_o they_o perpetual_o rejoice_v in_o god_n by_o inflame_a love_n so_o we_o ought_v to_o rejoice_v and_o exult_v with_o ardent_a love_n of_o he_o who_o have_v manifest_v his_o infinite_a love_n to_o we_o in_o this_o holy_a sacrament_n three_o we_o may_v consider_v that_o the_o church_n militant_a desire_n to_o join_v with_o the_o church_n triumphant_a to_o make_v one_o choir_n and_o the_o faithful_a people_n present_a know_v their_o own_o frailty_n and_o indignity_n make_v humble_a supplication_n that_o god_n will_v give_v they_o grace_n to_o make_v they_o worthy_a to_o make_v a_o part_n with_o the_o heavenly_a choir_n in_o this_o holy_a sacrifice_n for_o as_o florus_n say_v the_o holy_a church_n be_v to_o be_v associate_v to_o the_o quire_n of_o angel_n and_o with_o the_o angel_n persist_v in_o the_o praise_n of_o god_n for_o ever_o and_o ever_o and_o now_o in_o this_o holy_a sacrifice_n as_o st._n

cry_v out_o the_o whole_a place_n near_o the_o altar_n in_o his_o honour_n who_o be_v there_o immolate_a be_v full_a of_o angelical_a quire_n four_o we_o may_v devout_o consider_v how_o the_o church_n here_o specify_v the_o song_n or_o canticle_n which_o the_o angel_n continual_o sing_v in_o heaven_n declare_v by_o the_o prophet_n isay_n and_o st._n john_n evangelist_n by_o the_o greek_n call_v

give_v to_o god_n a_o more_o precious_a title_n or_o more_o suitable_a to_o his_o glory_n than_o to_o call_v he_o holy_a for_o it_o be_v to_o say_v in_o one_o word_n all_o the_o substantial_a and_o

ought_v we_o in_o this_o place_n for_o as_o st._n damascene_fw-la say_v the_o deity_n be_v thrice_o declare_v holy_a and_o glorify_a when_o sanctus_n or_o holy_a be_v say_v three_o time_n whence_o

three_o we_o may_v understand_v a_o multitude_n so_o that_o by_o say_v that_o they_o sing_v holy_a three_o time_n we_o may_v take_v it_o all_o time_n for_o this_o be_v their_o continual_a song_n
