that_o it_o do_v not_o sanctify_v or_o make_v a_o man_n holy_a but_o the_o sacrament_n enter_v in_o by_o the_o mouth_n therefore_o it_o do_v follow_v that_o of_o itself_o it_o do_v not_o sanctify_v or_o make_v holy_a &_o of_o this_o text_n shall_v follow_v two_o inconvenience_n if_o the_o sacrament_n be_v the_o natural_a body_n of_o christ_n first_o it_o shall_v follow_v that_o the_o body_n of_o follow_v christ_n shall_v not_o sanctify_v the_o faithful_a because_o it_o enter_v in_o by_o y_z t_z mouth_n and_o again_o it_o shall_v follow_v that_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n shall_v be_v cast_v

will_v not_o suffer_v that_o devoute_a woman_n which_o of_o love_n seek_v he_o at_o his_o sepulture_n to_o touch_v his_o natural_a body_n because_o she_o lack_v a_o point_n of_o faith_n and_o do_v not_o count_v he_o to_o be_v equal_a with_o his_o father_n and_o much_o more_o it_o shall_v follow_v christ_n that_o the_o wicked_a which_o have_v no_o faith_n nor_o love_n towards_o he_o shall_v not_o be_v suffer_v to_o eat_v his_o flesh_n with_o their_o tooth_n and_o swallow_v it_o into_o their_o unclean_a body_n for_o that_o be_v much_o more_o than_o to_o touch_v he_o and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o they_o receive_v and_o eat_v the_o sacrament_n whereupon_o it_o shall_v follow_v if_o the_o sacrament_n be_v his_o natural_a body_n that_o they_o shall_v in_o deed_n eat_v his_o body_n which_o thing_n may_v be_v count_v a_o blasphemye_n against_o god_n moreover_o christ_n say_v he_o that_o eat_v my_o flesh_n &_o drink_v my_o blood_n dwell_v in_o i_o and_o i_o in_o he_o now_o we_o christ_n know_v right_a well_o that_o the_o wicked_a do_v eat_v the_o sacrament_n and_o yet_o neither_o dwell_v in_o christ_n nor_o christ_n in_o they_o wherefore_o it_o must_v follow_v that_o the_o sacrament_n be_v not_o the_o very_a flesh_n of_o christ_n and_o sure_o i_o can_v not_o excuse_v they_o of_o blasphemye_n which_o so_o direct_o contrary_a christ_n word_n how_o can_v you_o

well_o that_o his_o godhead_n be_v in_o all_o place_n and_o that_o as_o touch_v his_o godhead_n he_o forsake_v not_o the_o world_n when_o he_o ascend_v unto_o his_o father_n wherefore_o it_o must_v needs_o follow_v that_o he_o forsake_v it_o as_o touch_v his_o flesh_n and_o manhood_n and_o thereto_o agree_v the_o exposition_n of_o s._n austen_n and_o fulgentius_n before_o allege_v yea_o and_o all_o other_o old_a faithful_a father_n now_o if_o he_o have_v forsake_v the_o world_n as_o touch_v the_o presence_n of_o his_o natural_a flesh_n and_o manhood_n as_o all_o doctor_n define_v then_o mean_v he_o not_o that_o his_o natural_a flesh_n shall_v be_v present_a in_o the_o sacrament_n to_o be_v eat_v with_o our_o tooth_n and_o therefore_o though_o christ_n so_o tell_v you_o yet_o must_v you_o take_v he_o as_o he_o mean_v or_o else_o you_o be_v beguile_v for_o if_o you_o think_v that_o god_n both_o may_v and_o will_v fulfil_v and_o verify_v all_o thing_n accord_v to_o the_o letter_n as_o he_o speak_v they_o i_o may_v call_v you_o a_o obedient_a man_n as_o s._n bernard_n do_v his_o monk_n adam_n and_o may_v say_v as_o he_o do_v that_o if_o that_o be_v the_o right_a way_n so_o simple_o to_o receive_v all_o thing_n we_o may_v put_v out_o the_o text_n of_o scripture_n which_o warn_v we_o to_o be_v wise_a as_o serpent_n for_o the_o text_n follow_v be_v sufficient_a which_o bid_v we_o to_o be_v simple_a as_o dove_n why_o do_v your_o mastership_n grant_v a_o necessary_a allegorye_n when_o paul_n say_v christ_n be_v a_o stone_n or_o when_o christ_n say_v that_o he_o be_v a_o door_n the_o scripture_n say_v he_o be_v both_o twain_o and_o since_o god_n so_o say_v he_o be_v able_a so_o to_o make_v it_o and_o therefore_o by_o your_o reason_n we_o shall_v need_v none_o allegorye_a in_o all_o scripture_n and_o then_o he_o that_o be_v most_o simple_a and_o foolish_a may_v be_v count_v most_o faithful_a and_o so_o shall_v we_o need_v no_o faithful_a father_n to_o

speak_v the_o word_n but_o now_o you_o e_o scripture_n stand_v as_o it_o do_v i_o think_v he_o can_v not_o do_v it_o as_o by_o example_n i_o think_v that_o god_n by_o the_o blood_n of_o his_o son_n christ_n may_v have_v save_v all_o man_n both_o faithful_a and_o unfaythfull_a if_o he_o have_v so_o intend_v and_o that_o it_o have_v so_o please_v he_o but_o now_o the_o scripture_n 3._o stand_v as_o they_o do_v i_o say_v he_o can_v not_o do_v it_o and_o that_o it_o be_v impossible_a for_o he_o for_o than_o he_o may_v make_v his_o son_n a_o liar_n which_o say_v he_o that_o beleve_v not_o be_v

will_v likewise_o it_o be_v impossible_a the_o scripture_n stand_v as_o they_o do_v that_o the_o natural_a body_n of_o christ_n shall_v be_v present_a to_o our_o sacrament_n tooth_n in_o the_o

very_a face_n in_o the_o glass_n and_o even_o so_o though_o the_o sacrament_n do_v represent_v the_o body_n of_o christ_n yet_o the_o substance_n glass_n of_o the_o sacrament_n be_v not_o his_o very_a

example_n make_v well_o for_o us._n and_o for_o that_o one_o word_n come_v whole_a to_o a_o hundred_o ear_n i_o say_v that_o word_n be_v but_o a_o sound_n and_o a_o quality_n and_o not_o a_o

though_o his_o natural_a body_n be_v not_o in_o it_o and_o thus_o his_o example_n make_v nothing_o with_o he_o but_o rather_o much_o against_o he_o and_o where_o he_o say_v that_o the_o young_a man_n himself_o can_v geve_v he_o no_o reason_n by_o what_o mean_v they_o may_v be_v do_v i_o may_v say_v unto_o his_o mastership_n that_o when_o i_o be_v seven_o year_n young_a than_o i_o be_o this_o day_n
