one_o indeed_o send_v from_o god_n to_o teach_v we_o nothing_o but_o truth_n because_o of_o his_o miracle_n and_o we_o have_v no_o assurance_n of_o his_o miracle_n but_o from_o our_o sense_n if_o our_o sense_n may_v be_v mistake_v how_o can_v we_o tell_v but_o those_o who_o be_v eye-witness_n of_o his_o wonder_n be_v illude_v and_o water_n for_o example_n be_v not_o turn_v by_o he_o into_o

and_o yet_o seem_v to_o my_o taste_n wine_n as_o well_o as_o wine_n be_v change_v into_o blood_n and_o yet_o seem_v to_o my_o taste_n and_o sight_n to_o remain_v wine_n for_o answer_v to_o this_o objection_n we_o must_v distinguish_v two_o sort_n of_o miracle_n with_o the_o end_n for_o which_o they_o be_v wrought_v some_o miracle_n be_v wrought_v by_o almighty_a god_n to_o draw_v the_o world_n

concern_v the_o adorable_a eucharist_n be_v that_o it_o be_v neither_o less_o nor_o more_o than_o the_o sacred_a body_n and_o blood_n of_o god_n neither_o less_o nor_o more_o than_o whole_a christ._n

of_o bread_n and_o wine_n into_o the_o substance_n of_o our_o bless_a saviour_n body_n and_o blood_n and_o this_o our_o adversary_n general_o grant_v whence_o by_o the_o way_n take_v notice_n that_o

that_o transubstantiation_n be_v both_o possible_a and_o impossible_a and_o they_o can_v and_o do_v believe_v as_o much_o it_o be_v possible_a that_o they_o grant_v and_o it_o be_v also_o impossible_a for_o that_o their_o argument_n attempt_v to_o prove_v further._n i_o prove_v transubstantiation_n possible_a thus_o what_o you_o and_o i_o can_v do_v and_o every_o day_n actual_o do_v in_o four_o and_o twenty_o hour_n sure_o god_n almighty_a can_v do_v in_o a_o moment_n but_o you_o and_o i_o in_o four_o and_o twenty_o hour_n turn_v bread_n and_o wine_n into_o the_o substance_n of_o our_o

you_o pawn_v your_o soul_n the_o omnipotent_a god_n can_v by_o consecration_n make_v his_o own_o body_n be_v present_a to_o the_o space_n a_o and_o b_o which_o before_o consecration_n be_v only_o
