for_o the_o remission_n of_o our_o sin_n no_o man_n can_v eat_v except_o the_o faytheful_a by_o faith_n also_o christ_n say_v that_o he_o be_v the_o bread_n of_o life_n which_o come_v from_o heaven_n

that_o his_o body_n be_v betray_v for_o we_o &_o his_o blood_n shed_v for_o the_o remission_n of_o our_o sin_n believe_v the_o same_o and_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n we_o then_o eat_v christ_n
