time_n by_o reason_n it_o be_v institute_v in_o the_o article_n of_o that_o time_n when_o they_o use_v to_o sup_v it_o be_v call_v also_o in_o the_o bible_n the_o table_n of_o the_o lord_n it_o be_v not_o call_v the_o altar_n of_o the_o lord_n but_o the_o apostle_n call_v it_o a_o table_n to_o sit_v at_o and_o not_o a_o altar_n to_o stand_v at_o a_o table_n to_o take_v and_o receive_v at_o &_o not_o a_o altar_n to_o offer_v at_o it_o be_v call_v also_o the_o communion_n and_o participation_n of_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n we_o have_v these_o name_n give_v unto_o it_o beside_o some_o other_o in_o the_o scripture_n of_o god_n the_o ancient_n of_o the_o latin_a &_o of_o the_o greek_a church_n give_v it_o sundry_a name_n for_o sundry_a respect_n they_o call_v it_o a_o public_a action_n and_o this_o be_v a_o very_a general_a name_n sometime_o they_o call_v it_o a_o thanksgiving_n sometime_o they_o call_v it_o a_o banquet_n of_o love_n and_o sometime_o they_o give_v it_o one_o name_n and_o sometime_o another_o and_o at_o the_o last_o in_o the_o decline_a estate_n of_o the_o latin_a church_n &_o in_o the_o fall_a estate_n of_o the_o roman_a church_n this_o sacrament_n begin_v to_o be_v pervert_v and_o with_o this_o decay_n there_o come_v in_o a_o perverse_a name_n and_o they_o call_v it_o the_o mass_n they_o trouble_v themselves_o much_o concern_v the_o derivation_n of_o this_o name_n sometime_o they_o seek_v it_o from_o a_o hebrew_n original_a sometime_o from_o a_o greek_a and_o sometime_o from_o a_o latin_a original_a but_o it_o be_v plain_a that_o the_o word_n be_v derive_v from_o the_o latin_a and_o it_o be_v a_o word_n which_o may_v have_v be_v tolerable_a when_o it_o be_v first_o institute_v for_o no_o doubt_n the_o sacrament_n at_o the_o first_o institution_n of_o this_o word_n be_v not_o then_o whole_o pervert_v but_o now_o in_o process_n of_o time_n corruption_n have_v prevaty_v so_o far_o that_o it_o have_v turn_v the_o sacrament_n into_o a_o sacrifice_n and_o where_o we_o shall_v take_v from_o the_o hand_n of_o god_n in_o christ_n they_o make_v we_o to_o give_v this_o be_v plain_a idolatry_n and_o therefore_o whereas_o the_o

body_n &_o blood_n of_o christ_n in_o our_o soul_n as_o we_o have_v eat_v that_o bread_n and_o drink_v that_o wine_n which_o be_v the_o sign_n of_o his_o body_n and_o blood_n we_o will_v not_o have_v suffer_v this_o word_n of_o the_o mass_n much_o less_o the_o very_a action_n of_o it_o to_o be_v so_o rise_v in_o this_o country_n but_o because_o we_o have_v but_o play_v the_o counterfeit_n and_o defraud_v our_o soul_n of_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n and_o take_v only_o the_o outward_a sacrament_n therefore_o it_o be_v that_o our_o zeal_n decay_v therefore_o it_o be_v that_o our_o knowledge_n and_o light_n decay_v and_o for_o want_v of_o zeal_n love_n and_o knowledge_n the_o word_n of_o the_o mass_n be_v become_v customable_a unto_o you_o and_o not_o only_o the_o word_n but_o the_o very_a action_n i_o will_v not_o run_v out_o herein_o i_o only_o tell_v you_o what_o come_v of_o the_o abuse_n of_o the_o hear_n of_o the_o word_n what_o judgement_n follow_v upon_o the_o abuse_n of_o the_o receive_n of_o the_o sacrament_n now_o institute_v second_o head_n general_a of_o the_o end_n why_o this_o sacrament_n be_v institute_v i_o come_v to_o the_o end_n wherefore_o the_o sacrament_n be_v appoint_v this_o sacrament_n be_v institute_v in_o the_o sign_n of_o bread_n and_o wine_n and_o be_v appoint_v chief_o for_o this_o end_n to_o represent_v our_o spiritual_a nouriture_n the_o full_a and_o perfect_a nouriture_n of_o our_o soul_n that_o as_o he_o who_o have_v bread_n &_o wine_n lack_v nothing_o for_o the_o full_a nourishment_n of_o his_o body_n so_o he_o or_o that_o soul_n which_o have_v the_o participation_n of_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n want_v nothing_o for_o the_o full_a and_o perfect_a nourishment_n of_o the_o soul_n to_o represent_v this_o full_a and_o perfect_a nourishment_n the_o sign_n of_o bread_n and_o wine_n in_o the_o sacrament_n be_v set_v down_o and_o institute_v the_o second_o end_n wherefore_o this_o sacrament_n be_v institute_v be_v this_o that_o we_o may_v testify_v to_o the_o world_n and_o to_o the_o prince_n of_o the_o world_n who_o be_v enemy_n to_o our_o profession_n that_o we_o may_v open_o

towards_o his_o member_n our_o brother_n this_o be_v the_o second_o end_n wherefore_o it_o be_v institute_v the_o three_o end_n wherefore_o it_o be_v institute_v be_v this_o to_o serve_v for_o our_o special_a comfort_n and_o consolation_n to_o serve_v as_o a_o sovereign_a medicine_n for_o all_o our_o spiritual_a disease_n as_o we_o find_v ourselves_o either_o ready_a to_o fall_v or_o provoke_v to_o fall_v by_o the_o devil_n the_o flesh_n or_o the_o world_n or_o after_o that_o we_o have_v fall_v and_o be_v put_v to_o flight_n by_o the_o devil_n and_o will_v fain_o flee_v away_o from_o god_n god_n of_o his_o mercy_n and_o of_o his_o infinite_a pity_n and_o bottomless_a compassion_n have_v set_v up_o this_o sacrament_n as_o a_o sign_n on_o a_o high_a hill_n whereby_o it_o may_v be_v see_v on_o every_o side_n far_o and_o near_o to_o call_v all_o they_o again_o that_o have_v run_v shameful_o away_o and_o he_o cluck_v to_o they_o as_o a_o hen_n do_v to_o her_o chicken_n to_o gather_v they_o under_o the_o wing_n of_o his_o infinite_a mercy_n the_o four_o end_n wherefore_o this_o sacrament_n be_v institute_v be_v this_o that_o in_o this_o action_n we_o may_v thank_v he_o for_o his_o benefit_n and_o render_v to_o he_o hearty_a thanks_o that_o he_o have_v come_v down_o so_o familiar_o to_o we_o bow_v the_o heaven_n as_o it_o be_v and_o give_v we_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o his_o own_o son_n that_o we_o may_v render_v unto_o he_o hearty_a thanks_o and_o so_o sanctify_v his_o benefit_n unto_o we_o for_o this_o thanksgiving_n this_o sacrament_n be_v also_o institute_v thus_o far_o concern_v the_o end_n brief_o now_o general_a three_o head_n general_a i_o come_v to_o the_o thing_n contain_v in_o this_o sacrament_n you_o see_v with_o your_o eye_n there_o be_v corporal_a thing_n visible_a thing_n as_o the_o bread_n and_o wine_n there_o be_v again_o hide_v from_o the_o eye_n of_o your_o body_n but_o present_a to_o the_o eye_n of_o your_o mind_n spiritual_a thing_n heavenly_a and_o inward_a thing_n both_o these_o be_v in_o the_o sacrament_n the_o corporal_a visible_a &_o outward_a thing_n be_v the_o thing_n which_o be_v appoint_v entreat_v of_o the_o thing_n contain_v in_o this_o sacrament_n outward_a and_o inward_a wherein_o sundry_a head_n be_v entreat_v to_o signify_v the_o spiritual_a heavenly_a and_o inward_a thing_n and_o why_o nothing_o without_o a_o reason_n these_o corporal_a sign_n be_v appoint_v to_o signify_v the_o spiritual_a thing_n because_o we_o be_v corporal_a we_o be_v earthly_a body_n we_o have_v our_o soul_n lodging_n within_o a_o carnal_a body_n in_o a_o tabernacle_n of_o clay_n a_o gross_a tabernacle_n which_o can_v be_v waken_v nor_o move_v except_o by_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v like_a to_o itself_o it_o can_v be_v induce_v to_o the_o consideration_n of_o heavenly_a thing_n except_o by_o gross_a temporal_a and_o corporal_a thing_n if_o we_o have_v be_v of_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o thing_n signify_v that_o as_o the_o thing_n signify_v be_v spiritual_a and_o heavenly_a so_o we_o have_v be_v spiritual_a and_o heavenly_a we_o have_v not_o need_v a_o corporal_a thing_n so_o if_o the_o thing_n signify_v have_v be_v as_o we_o be_v corporal_a earthly_a and_o visible_a we_o have_v not_o need_v a_o sign_n to_o lead_v we_o to_o consider_v of_o it_o but_o because_o the_o thing_n signify_v be_v spiritual_a and_o we_o be_v corporal_a therefore_o to_o bring_v we_o unto_o the_o sight_n of_o these_o spiritual_a thing_n he_o use_v a_o corporal_a mean_n and_o a_o outward_a sign_n this_o be_v the_o reason_n wherefore_o these_o corporal_a sign_n be_v appoint_v to_o signify_v the_o spiritual_a thing_n the_o spiritual_a thing_n in_o both_o the_o sacrament_n be_v one_o and_o the_o self_n same_o christ_n jesus_n signify_v in_o both_o the_o sacrament_n yet_o in_o diverse_a respect_n he_o be_v the_o thing_n signify_v in_o baptism_n and_o he_o be_v the_o thing_n signify_v in_o the_o lord_n supper_n this_o christ_n jesus_n in_o his_o
