condition_n of_o frail_a and_o sinful_a flesh_n now_o because_o no_o part_n of_o this_o can_v be_v import_v in_o that_o memorial_n if_o it_o be_v a_o thanksgiving_n for_o the_o saint_n therefore_o

of_o the_o comparison_n when_o he_o say_v of_o christ_n that_o he_o be_v in_o heaven_n and_o of_o the_o saint_n that_o they_o be_v in_o the_o earth_n by_o their_o body_n yet_o rest_v in_o the_o earth_n where_o it_o have_v some_o reason_n that_o they_o shall_v say_v we_o pray_v for_o they_o as_o respect_v that_o their_o body_n lie_v yet_o in_o the_o dust_n of_o the_o earth_n expect_v a_o bless_a and_o happy_a resurrection_n which_o we_o crave_v to_o be_v reveal_v upon_o they_o but_o to_o say_v that_o they_o mean_v to_o give_v thanks_o to_o god_n for_o that_o the_o body_n of_o the_o saint_n lie_v bury_v in_o the_o earth_n it_o be_v senseless_a and_o absurd_a and_o because_o it_o be_v confirm_v unto_o we_o by_o the_o ecclesiastical_a hierarchy_n that_o the_o church_n do_v pray_v for_o the_o dead_a in_o respect_n of_o the_o resurrection_n therefore_o we_o can_v doubt_v but_o that_o the_o memorial_n here_o speak_v of_o by_o epiphanius_n use_v for_o the_o saint_n in_o respect_n of_o their_o body_n in_o the_o earth_n be_v a_o prayer_n for_o they_o to_o wish_v their_o full_a and_o perfect_a consummation_n by_o the_o resurrection_n from_o the_o dead_a my_o former_a conclusion_n therefore_o hence_o deduce_v stand_v good_a that_o since_o the_o ancient_a church_n thus_o pray_v for_o the_o saint_n and_o martyr_n therefore_o that_o certain_a it_o be_v they_o do_v not_o pray_v
