body_n of_o jesus_n christ_n in_o the_o supper_n and_o so_o temper_v they_o their_o say_n that_o there_o be_v no_o zuinglian_n nor_o almanist_n which_o confess_v not_o thereof_o as_o much_o or_o

to_o avoid_v vain_a blot_n of_o paper_n the_o doctor_n admonish_v the_o minister_n to_o answer_v without_o wander_v and_o to_o render_v open_a confession_n of_o their_o faith_n and_o that_o the_o
