unto_o we_o that_o by_o the_o oblation_n of_o his_o body_n and_o effusion_n of_o his_o blood_n alone_o we_o must_v come_v to_o receive_v the_o effect_n of_o celestial_a benediction_n we_o may_v here_o

after_o that_o the_o oblation_n be_v complete_v she_o make_v it_o for_o the_o dead_a we_o may_v also_o give_v another_o reason_n for_o that_o the_o mass_n be_v a_o representation_n of_o christ_n
