to_o the_o sense_n of_o his_o disciple_n for_o the_o reality_n and_o substantialness_n of_o that_o body_n of_o he_o which_o then_o present_v itself_o to_o their_o eye_n and_o there_o too_o as_o well_o

that_o appear_v not_o as_o well_o as_o of_o the_o be_v of_o a_o thing_n that_o do_v so_o because_o as_o the_o romanist_n order_n the_o matter_n concern_v the_o glorify_a body_n of_o christ_n in_o the_o sacrament_n there_o be_v no_o material_a difference_n if_o any_o at_o all_o between_o that_o glorify_a body_n of_o he_o and_o what_o our_o saviour_n in_o the_o place_n before_o quote_v call_v

therefore_o that_o our_o saviour_n may_v argue_v from_o his_o own_o fall_n under_o their_o eye_n and_o touch_v that_o that_o substance_n wherein_o he_o present_v himself_o to_o they_o be_v a_o body_n and_o not_o a_o spirit_n by_o the_o same_o reason_n may_v we_o argue_v that_o that_o which_o our_o sense_n assure_v we_o to_o be_v bread_n be_v real_o such_o and_o not_o such_o a_o body_n as_o according_a to_o the_o romanist_n be_v a_o invisible_a and_o impalpable_a one_o and_o so_o far_o forth_o of_o the_o nature_n of_o a_o spirit_n of_o the_o same_o force_n as_o well_o as_o nature_n i_o
