eutyches_n affirm_v that_o christ_n have_v but_o one_o nature_n that_o be_v to_o say_v divine_a or_o of_o god_n like_a as_o he_o be_v but_o one_o person_n he_o be_v about_o the_o year_n 450_o as_o some_o think_v his_o error_n be_v condemn_v in_o the_o ephesine_n council_n nestorius_n deem_v our_o saviour_n to_o be_v god_n he_o be_v as_o some_o suppose_v about_o the_o year_n 419._o so_o we_o also_o say_v and_o affirm_v that_o christ_n consist_v of_o two_o nature_n of_o which_o one_o be_v the_o godhead_n and_o the_o other_o be_v the_o manhood_n by_o the_o way_n i_o will_v speak_v this_o

athanasius_n as_o we_o say_v so_o speak_v athanasius_n in_o that_o famous_a confession_n of_o he_o say_v that_o he_o be_v consubstantial_a that_o be_v of_o the_o self_n same_o substance_n with_o the_o

to_o speak_v therefore_o thus_o it_o must_v be_v determine_v that_o the_o divine_a nature_n take_v on_o it_o the_o humane_a nature_n form_v and_o fashion_v it_o and_o even_o while_o it_o be_v form_v
