shall_v better_o perceive_v why_o christ_n leave_v this_o sacrament_n as_o a_o perpetual_a sacrifice_n for_o his_o church_n three_o reason_n then_o may_v be_v yield_v the_o first_o because_o by_o sacrifice_n man_n acknowledge_v god_n the_o first_o maker_n conserver_n and_o last_o end_n of_o all_o creature_n the_o which_o they_o intend_v to_o profess_v by_o the_o external_a action_n of_o

he_o of_o who_o they_o have_v receive_v all_o the_o second_o reason_n be_v because_o the_o holy_a ghost_n move_v they_o to_o use_v such_o bloody_a sacrifice_n to_o prefigurat_n the_o passion_n of_o christ_n once_o to_o be_v offer_v up_o on_o the_o cross_n three_o to_o show_v by_o the_o death_n of_o beast_n &_o that_o they_o deserve_v death_n for_o their_o sin_n that_o they_o offer_v the_o one_o to_o god_n in_o lieu_n of_o the_o other_o by_o these_o three_o reason_n we_o plain_o see_v that_o we_o in_o the_o law_n of_o grace_n have_v as_o great_a need_n of_o a_o real_a and_o external_a sacrifice_n as_o either_o the_o jew_n or_o those_o that_o live_v under_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n for_o need_v not_o we_o as_o well_o as_o they_o to_o acknowledge_v the_o dominion_n and_o right_n
