that_o there_o be_v only_a bread_n in_o the_o sacrament_n say_v smith_n and_o not_o christ_n body_n what_o then_o what_o be_v that_o to_o purpose_n here_o in_o this_o place_n i_o pray_v you_o for_o

the_o truth_n of_o god_n word_n you_o shall_v be_v much_o more_o apt_a to_o understand_v and_o receive_v the_o secret_n of_o holy_a scripture_n but_o before_o those_o scale_n fall_v from_o your_o

you_o many_o time_n affirm_v baptism_n but_o never_o can_v prove_v for_o the_o catholic_a church_n acknowledge_v no_o such_o division_n between_o christ_n holy_a flesh_n and_o his_o spirit_n that_o

and_o in_o this_o case_n they_o do_v hate_v as_o well_o god_n as_o the_o devil_n god_n as_o a_o unmerciful_a and_o extreme_a judge_n and_o the_o devil_n as_o a_o most_o malicious_a and_o cruel_a
