hold_v stiff_o by_o the_o transubstantiatist_n or_o papist_n the_o middle_a way_n hold_v by_o the_o church_n of_o our_o confession_n be_v that_o the_o outward_a element_n do_v represent_v as_o sign_n and_o exhibit_v as_o seal_n and_o moral_a instrument_n to_o the_o faith_n of_o the_o receiver_n the_o very_a body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n sacrifice_v as_o spiritual_a repast_n for_o our_o soul_n
