and_o i_o prove_v the_o first_o part_n of_o the_o anticedent_n by_o our_o saviour_n own_o word_n john_n c_o 6_o shall_fw-mi 51_o where_o he_o say_v thus_o i_o be_o the_o live_a bread_n which_o come_v

to_o be_v true_a will_v explain_v the_o aforesaid_a word_n if_o he_o have_v any_o mystical_a meaning_n but_o he_o be_v so_o far_o from_o so_o do_v that_o he_o confirm_v and_o repeat_v they_o again_o over_o and_o overâ_n as_o be_v manifest_a by_o the_o 53_o 54_o etc._n etc._n v_o where_o we_o read_v the_o follow_a word_n then_o jesus_n say_v unto_o they_o very_o very_o i_o say_v unto_o you_o except_o you_o eat_v the_o flesh_n of_o the_o son_n of_o man_n and_o drink_v his_o blood_n you_o have_v no_o life_n in_o you_o whosoever_o eat_v my_o flesh_n and_o drink_v my_o blood_n have_v eternal_a life_n and_o i_o will_v raise_v he_o up_o at_o the_o last_o day_n for_o my_o flesh_n be_v meat_n indeed_o and_o my_o blood_n be_v drink_v indeed_o he_o that_o eat_v my_o flesh_n and_o drink_v my_o blood_n dwell_v in_o i_o and_o i_o ãâã_d he_o as_o the_o live_a father_n have_v send_v i_o and_o i_o live_v by_o the_o father_n so_o he_o that_o eat_v i_o even_o he_o shall_v live_v by_o i_o this_o be_v the_o bread_n which_o come_v down_o from_o heaven_n not_o as_o your_o father_n do_v eat_v âanna_n and_o be_v dead_a he_o that_o eat_v of_o this_o bread_n shall_v live_v for_o ever_o so_o that_o every_o faithful_a &_o sincere_a christian_a may_v plain_o understand_v that_o if_o our_o saviour_n then_o have_v not_o mean_v that_o he_o be_v to_o give_v his_o own_o true_a flesh_n and_o blood_n to_o be_v real_o eat_v and_o drink_v that_o he_o will_v not_o so_o proceed_v in_o confirm_v what_o he_o say_v in_o the_o begin_n and_o also_o that_o he_o will_v not_o suffer_v his_o own_o disciple_n to_o part_v without_o declare_v his_o mind_n to_o they_o as_o he_o do_v often_o before_o when_o he_o spoâe_v in_o parable_n neither_o will_v he_o declare_v at_o his_o last_o supper_n that_o he_o give_v to_o his_o discple_n his_o own_o body_n and_o blood_n say_v thus_o take_v eat_v this_o his_o my_o bâdy_n and_o he_o take_v the_o cup_n and_o give_v thanks_n and_o give_v it_o to_o they_o

27_o &_o 28_o i_o leave_v it_o to_o all_o faithful_a christian_n serious_o to_o be_v consider_v whether_o christ_n give_v only_o figurative_o his_o own_o body_n and_o blood_n for_o the_o remission_n of_o our_o sin_n or_o his_o real_a body_n and_o blood_n if_o he_o give_v they_o real_o for_o our_o salvation_n he_o also_o give_v they_o real_o tâ_n his_o disciple_n as_o his_o own_o wordâ_n do_v manifest_o affirm_v to_o deny_v which_o be_v of_o no_o less_o consequence_n than_o to_o charge_n christ_n with_o untruth_n or_o at_o lest_o that_o he_o have_v not_o word_n significant_a to_o explain_v his_o intention_n which_o be_v rash_a and_o impious_a to_o judge_v of_o his_o infinite_a power_n therefore_o all_o christian_n be_v oblige_v not_o to_o mistrust_v of_o the_o truth_n of_o christ_n word_n or_o doubt_v of_o their_o literal_a sense_n in_o the_o aforesaid_a text_n for_o be_v we_o acknowledge_v that_o christ_n be_v omnipotent_a and_o consequent_o that_o it_o be_v in_o his_o power_n to_o make_v of_o the_o bread_n and_o wine_n his_o own_o flesh_n and_o blood_n by_o his_o divine_a benediction_n we_o ought_v not_o to_o doubt_v of_o what_o he_o say_v to_o be_v true_a and_o if_o in_o
