sign_n of_o the_o invisible_a sacrifice_n of_o their_o heart_n and_o bestow_v it_o upon_o the_o image_n of_o a_o corruptible_a man_n or_o idolatry_n the_o beginning_n of_o idolatry_n of_o fowl_n or_o

vainglory_n of_o man_n they_o enter_v into_o the_o world_n and_o therefore_o shall_v they_o come_v short_o unto_o a_o end_n for_o a_o father_n afflict_v with_o untimely_a mourning_n when_o he_o have_v make_v a_o picture_n of_o his_o child_n soontaken_v away_o now_o honour_v he_o as_o a_o god_n which_o be_v then_o a_o dead_a man_n and_o deliver_v unto_o those_o who_o be_v under_o he_o ceremony_n and_o sacrifice_n wisd_v 14._o 15._o 3._o thus_o as_o the_o scripture_n do_v witness_v begin_v idolatry_n by_o occasion_n of_o the_o passionate_a affection_n of_o a_o father_n who_o sorrow_v for_o the_o death_n of_o his_o child_n cause_v a_o picture_n to_o be_v make_v in_o his_o memory_n and_o ordain_v sacrifice_n which_o be_v due_a unto_o god_n to_o be_v offer_v unto_o it_o by_o his_o

visible_a sacrifice_n unto_o idol_n which_o be_v due_a only_a unto_o the_o true_a god_n as_o a_o sacred_a sign_n of_o the_o invisible_a sacrifice_n of_o our_o heart_n unto_o he_o which_o may_v not_o be_v give_v unto_o any_o creature_n whereupon_o when_o manue_n the_o father_n of_o samson_n will_v have_v offer_v sacrifice_n unto_o a_o angel_n the_o angel_n say_v if_o thou_o will_v offer_v

only_o unto_o that_o true_a god_n who_o they_o serve_v in_o holy_a society_n whereupon_o in_o the_o 4._o chapter_n of_o his_o 10._o book_n of_o the_o city_n of_o god_n he_o affirm_v that_o many_o thing_n either_o by_o to_o sacrifice_n no_o man_n as_o man_n ever_o challenge_v sacrifice_n much_o humility_n or_o pestilent_a flattery_n be_v usurp_v from_o divine_a worship_n and_o translate_v unto_o human_a honour_n yet_o so_o as_o that_o these_o man_n unto_o who_o such_o honour_n be_v give_v be_v notwithstanding_o still_o esteem_v man_n although_o they_o be_v call_v worshipful_a venerable_a and_o if_o much_o honourable_a but_o who_o ever_o think_v that_o sacrifice_n ought_v to_o be_v offer_v unto_o any_o but_o unto_o he_o who_o either_o he_o do_v know_v or_o esteem_v or_o feign_a to_o be_v a_o god_n and_o moreover_o in_o his_o 49._o epist_n and_o 3._o quest_n he_o say_v the_o true_a and_o holy_a scripture_n do_v admonish_v we_o that_o sacrifice_n be_v to_o be_v offer_v unto_o the_o only_a true_a god_n &_o not_o unto_o any_o corporal_a or_o spiritual_a creature_n who_o by_o how_o much_o the_o more_o pious_a they_o be_v and_o subject_n to_o god_n by_o so_o much_o

his_o 2._o 2._o quest_n 81._o art_n 2._o say_v the_o sacrifice_n which_o be_v mind_n outward_a sacrifice_n do_v express_v the_o inward_a of_o the_o hart_n and_o mind_n exterior_o offer_v do_v signify_v the_o inward_a spiritual_a sacrifice_n wherewith_o the_o soul_n offer_v herself_o unto_o god_n as_o unto_o the_o begin_n of_o her_o creation_n and_o end_n of_o her_o happiness_n and_o therefore_o as_o we_o ought_v to_o offer_v spiritual_a sacrifice_n only_o unto_o god_n so_o we_o ought_v to_o offer_v exterior_a sacrifice_n only_o unto_o he_o this_o also_o we_o see_v to_o be_v observe_v in_o every_o commonwealth_n that_o they_o honour_v their_o prince_n with_o some_o particular_a sign_n which_o if_o it_o shall_v be_v give_v unto_o any_o other_o be_v treason_n 6._o for_o this_o cause_n in_o the_o catholic_n church_n they_o do_v not_o offer_v sacrifice_n unto_o any_o creature_n whatsoever_o as_o s._n augustin_n in_o the_o 27._o chapter_n of_o his_o 8._o book_n of_o the_o city_n of_o god_n witness_v say_v who_o saint_n sacrifice_n never_o offer_v to_o saint_n ever_o hear_v the_o priest_n of_o the_o faithful_a stand_v at_o the_o altar_n even_o build_v and_o

offer_v in_o memory_n of_o these_o martyr_n unto_o god_n who_o have_v earth_n why_o christ_n our_o lord_n will_v not_o have_v sacrifice_n offer_v unto_o he_o upon_o earth_n make_v they_o both_o man_n and_o martyr_n and_o the_o 20._o chapter_n of_o his_o 10._o book_n he_o add_v although_o jesus_n christ_n the_o mediator_n between_o god_n and_o man_n be_v in_o the_o form_n of_o god_n may_v have_v have_v sacrifice_n offer_v unto_o he_o as_o it_o be_v offer_v unto_o his_o father_n with_o who_o he_o be_v one_o god_n yet_o live_v in_o the_o form_n of_o a_o servant_n he_o choose_v rather_o to_o be_v a_o sacrifice_n then_o to_o have_v sacrifice_n offer_v unto_o he_o lest_o that_o thereby_o any_o one_o may_v take_v occasion_n to_o think_v that_o it_o be_v lawful_a to_o offer_v

the_o altar_n not_o hold_v by_o a_o woman_n but_o by_o a_o priest_n assist_v and_o a_o number_n of_o angel_n fly_v about_o these_o thing_n which_o be_v set_v before_o thou_o and_o the_o same_o saint_n upon_o the_o 10._o chapter_n to_o the_o hebrew_n and_o 17._o hom._n speak_v more_o at_o large_a of_o our_o christian_a sacrifice_n say_v this_o sacrifice_n which_o now_o we_o use_v in_o the_o church_n be_v a_o example_n of_o that_o which_o christ_n offer_v even_o the_o self_n same_o for_o we_o offer_v always_o the_o same_o not_o now_o true_o another_o but_o always_o the_o same_o wherefore_o the_o sacrifice_n be_v one_o for_o this_o reason_n because_o it_o be_v offer_v up_o in_o many_o place_n be_v there_o not_o many_o christ_n no_o indeed_o but_o one_o christ_n every_o where_o who_o be_v whole_o sacrifice_n christian_n offer_v always_o the_o self_n same_o sacrifice_n here_o and_o whole_o there_o one_o body_n and_o even_o as_o one_o body_n be_v offer_v in_o many_o place_n and_o not_o many_o body_n so_o there_o be_v one_o sacrifice_n he_o be_v our_o bishop_n who_o offer_v that_o host_n which_o do_v cleanse_v we_o and_o we_o offer_v even_o the_o same_o which_o be_v then_o offer_v which_o can_v be_v consume_v this_o be_v do_v in_o commemoration_n of_o he_o which_o be_v then_o do_v for_o he_o say_v do_v this_o the_o same_o that_o he_o then_o do_v in_o remembrance_n of_o i_o thus_o s._n crysostome_n where_o still_o we_o see_v that_o the_o same_o body_n or_o host_n be_v offer_v in_o all_o catholic_a sacrifice_n and_o receive_v in_o their_o communion_n in_o such_o sort_n as_o that_o all_o christian_a catholic_n receive_v equal_o the_o same_o body_n of_o our_o lord_n in_o the_o communion_n whereupon_o the_o same_o s._n chrysostome_n in_o his_o 18._o homily_n upon_o the_o 2._o epistle_n of_o s._n paul_n to_o the_o corinthian_n say_v sometime_o there_o be_v no_o difference_n between_o the_o priest_n and_o the_o people_n as_o for_o example_n when_o they_o receive_v the_o terrible_a mystery_n for_o we_o admit_v all_o equal_o unto_o they_o for_o it_o be_v not_o in_o the_o new_a law_n as_o it_o be_v in_o the_o old_a where_o the_o priest_n do_v eat_v something_n and_o the_o people_n other_o where_o it_o be_v not_o lawful_a for_o the_o people_n to_o eat_v of_o those_o thing_n of_o which_o the_o priest_n do_v in_o the_o new_a law_n it_o be_v far_o otherwise_o see_v that_o one_o body_n and_o one_o cup_n be_v set_v before_o all_o man_n 8._o and_o the_o like_a affirm_v s._n ambrose_n in_o his_o first_o prayer_n for_o preparation_n to_o mass_n say_v o_o lord_n jesus-christ_n with_o what_o contrition_n of_o heart_n with_o what_o fountain_n of_o tear_n with_o what_o reverence_n and_o fear_n with_o how_o great_a chastity_n of_o body_n and_o purity_n of_o mind_n this_o divine_a and_o heavenly_a sacrifice_n be_v to_o be_v perform_v where_o thy_o flesh_n be_v in_o verity_n take_v where_o thy_o blood_n be_v in_o verity_n drunken_a where_o the_o high_a

those_o who_o be_v learn_v in_o divine_a thing_n that_o we_o do_v not_o offer_v a_o other_o sacrifice_n but_o we_o celebrate_v the_o memory_n of_o this_o one_o and_o healthful_a sacrifice_n for_o this_o our_o lord_n himself_o command_v we_o say_v do_v this_o in_o commoration_n of_o i_o so_o theodoret_n whereby_o it_o appear_v that_o the_o want_n of_o believe_v that_o the_o same_o body_n or_o
