lord_n i_o believe_v that_o thou_o be_v present_a in_o the_o sacrament_n but_o in_o a_o manner_n spiritual_a and_o ineffable_a to_o think_v that_o thou_o be_v here_o corporeal_o bid_v defiance_n to_o

tree_n do_v the_o blood_n run_v down_o so_o jesus_n love_v we_o and_o wash_v we_o from_o our_o sin_n in_o his_o own_o blood_n when_o the_o priest_n carry_v the_o chalice_n he_o say_v it_o be_v the_o

all_o their_o righteousness_n whether_o by_o the_o guidance_n of_o the_o law_n or_o by_o the_o strength_n of_o nature_n be_v insignificant_a and_o of_o no_o value_n and_o that_o nothing_o can_v

they_o by_o the_o incredible_a method_n of_o suffering_n and_o die_v overcome_v all_o prejudices_fw-la and_o triumph_v in_o the_o conquest_n of_o the_o world_n and_o so_o shall_v all_o the_o other_o servant_n of_o god_n who_o sincere_o take_v jesus_n for_o their_o master_n though_o they_o may_v not_o be_v enable_v by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n to_o cure_v the_o desperate_o disease_v or_o to_o raise_v the_o dead_a though_o they_o can_v allay_v tempest_n or_o cast_v out_o devil_n yet_o their_o triumph_n shall_v be_v as_o great_a though_o of_o another_o nature_n the_o bless_a spirit_n shall_v empower_v they_o to_o mortify_v their_o lust_n to_o resist_v temptation_n and_o to_o raise_v a_o soul_n dead_a in_o trespass_n and_o sin_n to_o a_o state_n of_o new_a life_n and_o holy_a performance_n and_o this_o in_o truth_n be_v a_o noble_a honour_n and_o a_o more_o beneficial_a enjoyment_n than_o ability_n to_o work_v wonder_n for_o many_o that_o have_v call_v other_o from_o their_o grave_n have_v themselves_o drop_v into_o hell_n but_o he_o that_o have_v renounce_v himself_o and_o despise_a sensuality_n shall_v infallible_o enter_v into_o unspeakable_a joy_n and_o now_o what_o hinder_v but_o that_o i_o also_o shall_v be_v my_o redeemer_n disciple_n and_o partake_v of_o his_o grace_n why_o shall_v any_o of_o thy_o creature_n o_o my_o god_n love_v thou_o better_o than_o i_o why_o shall_v any_o of_o thy_o servant_n though_o prophet_n apostle_n or_o martyr_n be_v more_o conformable_a to_o thy_o law_n than_o i_o have_v thou_o do_v more_o for_o they_o than_o i_o do_v thou_o not_o die_v for_o i_o also_o and_o have_v thou_o not_o give_v i_o thy_o gospel_n thy_o blood_n thy_o sacrament_n and_o the_o assistance_n of_o thy_o spirit_n nay_o have_v thou_o not_o do_v more_o for_o i_o in_o forgive_a i_o more_o and_o great_a sin_n than_o ever_o they_o commit_v and_o where_o there_o be_v much_o forgive_v shall_v there_o not_o also_o be_v a_o proportionable_a degree_n of_o love_n i_o will_v therefore_o hearken_v diligent_o to_o these_o passionate_a word_n of_o my_o die_a saviour_n and_o i_o will_v remember_v they_o be_v his_o last_o will_n and_o testament_n and_o as_o i_o hope_v
