element_n in_o lieu_n of_o the_o substance_n of_o bread_n and_o therefore_o it_o must_v be_v in_o every_o part_n of_o the_o element_n where_o it_o be_v bread_n before_o wherefore_o see_v that_o when_o bread_n be_v cut_v into_o ten_o twenty_o or_o into_o as_o many_o piece_n as_o you_o will_v every_o piece_n be_v bread_n it_o do_v follow_v also_o that_o the_o consecrate_a element_n be_v cut_v into_o as_o many_o piece_n every_o piece_n must_v be_v christ_n his_o body_n for_o otherwise_o christ_n his_o body_n will_v not_o be_v in_o every_o part_n where_o bread_n be_v for_o a_o leg_n only_o or_o a_o arm_n be_v not_o christ_n his_o body_n no_o more_o than_o one_o wheel_n of_o a_o clock_n be_v a_o clock_n from_o whence_o it_o follow_v that_o christ_n his_o body_n be_v not_o divide_v when_o the_o visible_a element_n be_v break_v or_o cut_v in_o piece_n for_o that_o which_o be_v whole_a in_o every_o part_n of_o the_o element_n can_v be_v divide_v but_o still_o remain_v when_o the_o element_n be_v divide_v into_o part_n whole_a in_o each_o part_n 10._o be_v not_o christ_n his_o body_n then_o by_o be_v real_o in_o the_o sacrament_n make_v subject_a to_o receive_v corporal_a impression_n as_o to_o be_v burn_v annoy_v etc._n etc._n no_o for_o as_o his_o be_v whole_a in_o every_o part_n which_o be_v do_v by_o be_v deprive_v of_o local_a extension_n make_v his_o body_n that_o it_o can_v

tear_v in_o piece_n nether_a be_v it_o annoy_v or_o disgrace_v though_o it_o be_v cast_v into_o indecent_a place_n no_o more_o than_o god_n be_v harm_v or_o disgrace_v who_o by_o his_o godhead_n be_v in_o the_o same_o place_n 11._o do_v the_o communion_n or_o receive_v of_o the_o holy_a eucharist_n by_o laic_n belong_v to_o the_o act_n of_o sacrifice_v no_o for_o the_o act_n of_o sacrifice_v consist_v in_o the_o priest_n his_o give_v or_o offer_v up_o the_o host_n to_o god_n but_o the_o communion_n be_v a_o gift_n from_o god_n to_o man_n for_o after_o that_o the_o eucharist_n have_v be_v offer_v up_o by_o the_o priest_n to_o the_o honour_n of_o god_n he_o do_v give_v it_o to_o man_n to_o sanctify_v they_o and_o so_o god_n do_v render_v to_o man_n the_o same_o gift_n which_o man_n do_v present_a unto_o he_o 12._o what_o then_o be_v the_o communion_n it_o be_v not_o the_o act_n of_o sacrifice_v but_o it_o be_v a_o partake_n of_o the_o altar_n or_o christian_a sacrifice_n after_o that_o the_o host_n be_v sacrifice_v whereby_o we_o receive_v or_o eat_v some_o part_n of_o the_o sacrifice_a host_n as_o a_o meat_n make_v holy_a by_o have_v be_v offer_v up_o to_o god_n in_o sacrifice_n in_o acknowledgement_n that_o we_o do_v approve_v of_o and_o profess_v that_o religion_n whereunto_o the_o sacrifice_n belong_v 13._o be_v it_o necessary_a then_o to_o receive_v in_o both_o kind_n since_o both_o be_v use_v in_o the_o sacrifice_n no_o for_o the_o church_n assure_v we_o of_o the_o contrary_a and_o this_o reason_n may_v be_v allege_v because_o to_o make_v we_o partaker_n of_o the_o sacrifice_n it_o if_o sufficient_a if_o we_o receive_v any_o part_n of_o the_o host_n which_o be_v sacrifice_v especial_o in_o this_o sacrifice_n where_o one_o part_n do_v contain_v as_o much_o as_o both_z yet_o the_o priest_n who_o sacrifice_v be_v bind_v to_o receive_v both_o kind_n because_o his_o receive_n be_v a_o consummation_n of_o the_o offering_n and_o so_o he_o be_v bind_v to_o consummate_v in_o both_o kind_n what_o he_o offer_v in_o both_o kind_n for_o all_o that_o which_o be_v offer_v must_v be_v consummate_v that_o the_o sacrifice_n may_v be_v full_o accomplish_v and_o because_o the_o consummation_n of_o the_o sacrifice_n belong_v to_o the_o act_n of_o sacrifice_v from_o thence_o it_o follow_v that_o the_o priest_n only_o to_o who_o alone_o the_o act_n of_o sacrifice_v or_o offer_v be_v reserve_v and_o not_o the_o laity_n can_v receive_v the_o sacrament_n in_o this_o nature_n that_o be_v as_o offer_v it_o up_o to_o god_n in_o consummation_n of_o the_o sacrifice_n 14._o what_o state_n and_o disposition_n be_v require_v for_o our_o worthy_o receive_v this_o bless_a sacrament_n it_o be_v necessary_o require_v to_o be_v in_o the_o state_n of_o grace_n and_o to_o come_v to_o the_o sacrament_n with_o a_o reverend_a and_o devout_a heart_n and_o that_o we_o may_v reap_v a_o more_o full_a benefit_n by_o communicate_v we_o ought_v also_o to_o avoid_v actual_a distraction_n whilst_o we_o communicate_v moreover_o sales_n the_o holy_a bishop_n of_o geneva_n be_v of_o opinion_n that_o it_o be_v further_a requisite_a for_o frequent_a communion_n that_o one_o shall_v have_v no_o affection_n to_o any_o venial_a sin_n and_o withal_o that_o he_o have_v a_o great_a desire_n or_o spiritual_a hunger_n of_o that_o sacred_a food_n now_o by_o affection_n to_o venial_a sin_n be_v understand_v a_o tacit_a resolution_n to_o persist_v in_o they_o that_o be_v such_o a_o adhesion_n or_o love_n to_o they_o as_o make_v a_o man_n not_o only_o to_o commit_v they_o often_o but_o also_o not_o to_o care_v or_o endeavour_v to_o avoid_v they_o be_v so_o insensible_a of_o their_o malice_n as_o to_o make_v little_a or_o no_o account_n of_o it_o 15._o why_o must_v we_o be_v in_o the_o state_n of_o grace_n to_o receive_v the_o holy_a eucharist_n because_o the_o holy_a eucharist_n be_v of_o the_o number_n of_o those_o sacrament_n which_o be_v institute_v not_o to_o confer_v the_o first_o grace_n but_o to_o increase_v grace_n already_o confer_v and_o the_o reason_n of_o this_o be_v because_o to_o be_v in_o the_o state_n of_o grace_n be_v to_o be_v in_o charity_n with_o god_n and_o our_o neighbour_n which_o be_v a_o thing_n necessary_a for_o communion_n consider_v the_o nature_n of_o this_o sacrament_n for_o christ_n invit_v we_o in_o this_o sacrament_n to_o a_o banquet_n but_o none_o use_v to_o be_v invite_v to_o banquet_n but_o such_o as_o be_v his_o friend_n who_o make_v the_o banquet_n and_o also_o friend_n to_o one_o a_o other_o for_o fear_v of_o turn_v mirth_n and_o love_n for_o which_o banquet_n be_v institute_v into_o sorrow_n and_o contention_n and_o for_o this_o reason_n the_o ancient_a christian_n when_o the_o pax_n be_v give_v in_o mass_n be_v wont_a to_o kiss_v one_o a_o other_o in_o token_n of_o peace_n and_o charity_n and_o to_o communicate_v together_o and_o therefore_o not_o without_o reason_n this_o sacrament_n be_v call_v the_o sacrament_n of_o charity_n whereof_o bread_n and_o wine_n be_v also_o emblem_n signify_v that_o our_o will_n ought_v to_o be_v one_o and_o the_o same_o firm_o unite_v by_o love_n as_o thousand_o of_o corn_n or_o grape_n be_v fast_o together_o in_o one_o loaf_n or_o one_o cup_n of_o wine_n 16._o why_o be_v so_o perfect_a a_o disposition_n require_v for_o frequent_a communion_n as_o that_o one_o shall_v not_o deliberate_o adhere_v to_o any_o sin_n so_o much_o as_o venial_a because_o this_o sacrament_n be_v a_o pledge_n of_o god_n great_a love_n towards_o we_o and_o the_o mean_n which_o he_o have_v choose_v to_o make_v a_o perfect_a friendship_n with_o we_o and_o so_o every_o one_o ought_v to_o be_v more_o fervent_a in_o love_n by_o how_o much_o he_o make_v himself_o more_o familiar_a to_o this_o sacred_a table_n and_o consequent_o it_o be_v requisite_a that_o he_o shall_v be_v free_a not_o only_o from_o mortal_a sin_n but_o also_o from_o affection_n to_o venial_a one_o or_o if_o he_o find_v himself_o entangle_v in_o such_o affection_n he_o shall_v at_o leastwise_o come_v with_o a_o spirit_n and_o design_n to_o free_v himself_o of_o they_o 17._o ought_v all_o man_n to_o be_v exhort_v to_o frequent_a communion_n yes_o certain_o for_o the_o often_o one_o communicate_v the_o more_o grace_n he_o receive_v suppose_v that_o he_o come_v with_o that_o disposition_n and_o reverence_n which_o behove_v those_o to_o have_v that_o come_v frequent_o to_o so_o great_a a_o sacrament_n wherein_o this_o rule_n in_o general_a aught_o to_o be_v
