and_o consecrate_v say_v he_o that_o eat_v this_o bread_n simple_o that_o be_v this_o bread_n so_o bless_v break_a etc._n etc._n secondlie_o we_o say_v when_o he_o say_v he_o that_o eat_v see_v he_o

must_v call_v it_o proper_o bread_n and_o so_o chap._n 10._o when_o he_o say_v the_o bread_n which_o we_o break_v be_v it_o not_o the_o communion_n of_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n where_o note_n that_o bread_n before_o consecration_n can_v not_o be_v the_o communion_n of_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n by_o your_o own_o judgement_n secondlie_o that_o metaphorical_a bread_n can_v not_o be_v break_v christ_n body_n can_v not_o be_v break_v therefore_o very_a bread_n must_v here_o be_v understand_v wherefore_o we_o conclude_v that_o bread_n remain_v and_o this_o word_n this_o must_v be_v refer_v to_o the_o bread_n and_o therefore_o they_o can_v not_o stand_v to_o proper_a signification_n of_o word_n they_o i_o say_v who_o urge_v it_o so_o much_o now_o we_o will_v come_v to_o the_o

to_o be_v proper_a neither_o yet_o will_n we_o for_o shortness_n sake_n bring_v all_o the_o reason_n that_o may_v be_v bring_v but_o these_o which_o be_v plain_o gather_v out_o of_o the_o text_n first_o christ_n be_v say_v to_o give_v that_o which_o he_o say_v be_v his_o body_n now_o if_o this_o be_v my_o body_n be_v proper_o understand_v christ_n have_v one_o body_n which_o give_v and_o another_o which_o be_v give_v but_o that_o be_v absurd_a therefore_o it_o must_v not_o proper_o be_v understand_v secondlie_o if_o the_o speech_n be_v proper_a they_o be_v not_o diverse_a thing_n as_o bread_n may_v be_v say_v proper_o of_o a_o other_o as_o of_o a_o body_n but_o that_o can_v not_o be_v ergo_fw-la thirdlie_o if_o that_o be_v proper_o understand_v than_o christ_n may_v be_v say_v to_o be_v bread_n as_o well_o as_o bread_n christ_n but_o that_o be_v false_a ergo_fw-la etc._n etc._n fourthlie_o if_o that_o be_v proper_a then_o that_o which_o be_v true_a of_o the_o bread_n that_o it_o be_v of_o wheat_n be_v true_a of_o christ_n and_o that_o which_o be_v true_a of_o christ_n must_v also_o be_v true_a of_o the_o bread_n then_o also_o the_o bread_n be_v unite_v personal_o unto_o christ_n as_o his_o body_n which_o be_v false_a and_o wicked_a therefore_o it_o must_v not_o be_v so_o understand_v fiftlie_o if_o bread_n be_v the_o body_n than_o there_o be_v mean_v two_o

christ_n which_o be_v false_a sixth_o if_o bread_n in_o deed_n be_v turn_v into_o the_o body_n and_o wine_n into_o the_o blood_n then_o they_o be_v separate_v true_o or_o else_o the_o bread_n be_v

be_v false_a if_o sacramentallie_o than_o it_o be_v his_o body_n and_o blood_n only_o sacramentallie_o that_o which_o do_v apt_o seal_v up_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n which_o be_v that_o we_o hold_v seventhlie_a if_o the_o bread_n be_v his_o body_n in_o deed_n and_o the_o wine_n his_o blood_n in_o deed_n than_o christ_n every_o time_n the_o supper_n be_v administer_v be_v alive_a in_o heaven_n true_o be_v dead_a in_o earth_n true_o and_o bodily_a in_o deed_n which_o be_v blasphemous_a therefore_o it_o must_v not_o be_v understand_v proper_o eightlie_o if_o bread_n be_v turn_v into_o his_o body_n in_o deed_n or_o his_o body_n in_o deed_n be_v locallie_o with_o it_o than_o christ_n body_n which_o always_o have_v his_o part_n be_v visible_a etc._n etc._n have_v a_o

his_o body_n visible_a &_o his_o body_n not_o visible_a and_o so_o the_o truth_n shall_v lie_v all_o which_o be_v abominable_a ninghtlie_o it_o be_v say_v the_o bread_n break_v be_v his_o body_n break_v and_o the_o pour_v out_o of_o his_o blood_n which_o be_v a_o sign_n seal_n etc._n etc._n of_o it_o so_o must_v the_o bread_n and_o wine_n be_v his_o body_n and_o his_o blood_n as_o it_o represent_v seal_v etc._n etc._n 10_o if_o the_o wine_n be_v his_o blood_n in_o deed_n than_o blood_n be_v still_o pour_v out_o which_o be_v false_a 11_o as_o the_o wine_n or_o cup_n be_v the_o new_a testament_n in_o his_o blood_n so_o the_o bread_n be_v his_o body_n and_o the_o wine_n be_v blood_n but_o that_o be_v a_o sacrament_n which_o represent_v &_o seal_v the_o new_a testament_n in_o his_o

wherein_o the_o testament_n be_v that_o be_v his_o blood_n for_o these_o be_v distinguish_v therefore_o it_o be_v not_o proper_o say_v his_o blood_n 13_o he_o say_v do_v this_o in_o remembrance_n of_o i_o therefore_o he_o be_v not_o here_o eat_v 14_o we_o be_v say_v to_o show_v forth_o his_o death_n till_o he_o come_v therefore_o bodily_a he_o be_v not_o come_v nor_o be_v not_o there_o nor_o can_v not_o be_v proper_o say_v to_o be_v so_o only_o by_o these_o manifest_a and_o plain_a reason_n out_o of_o the_o text_n agree_v with_o the_o proportion_n of_o faith_n we_o have_v prove_v our_o judgement_n now_o then_o have_v show_v how_o jesus_n christ_n his_o flesh_n and_o blood_n be_v here_o in_o deed_n not_o bodily_a how_o it_o be_v receyve_v in_o deed_n not_o bodily_a but_o spiritual_o by_o flesh_n we_o must_v consider_v of_o that_o we_o say_v that_o we_o receyve_v his_o flesh_n and_o blood_n yea_o and_o so_o whole_a christ_n which_o be_v in_o deed_n true_a and_o must_v necessary_o be_v understand_v as_o a_o ground_n and_o foundation_n of_o our_o whole_a comfort_n here_o and_o in_o deed_n it_o can_v not_o be_v otherwise_o for_o if_o we_o receyve_v he_o flesh_n and_o blood_n we_o must_v thereby_o needs_o receyve_v he_o god_n and_o man_n which_o be_v not_o separate_v from_o he_o &_o whole_a christ_n do_v dwell_v in_o we_o ephe._n 3._o neither_o can_v the_o flesh_n of_o itself_o

we_o by_o his_o flesh_n and_o blood_n as_o by_o a_o mean_a or_o matter_n whereby_o he_o do_v convey_v the_o virtue_n and_o power_n of_o his_o godhead_n in_o his_o sacrifice_n &_o suffering_n whereby_o he_o overcome_v death_n and_o all_o principality_n and_o power_n in_o his_o resurrection_n by_o which_o he_o rise_v again_o so_o that_o we_o must_v become_v one_o with_o christ_n and_o he_o must_v be_v in_o we_o and_o we_o in_o he_o and_o he_o dwell_v in_o we_o and_o we_o in_o he_o which_o be_v by_o the_o virtue_n and_o power_n of_o his_o divine_a work_n and_o the_o natural_a unite_n of_o his_o natural_a humanity_n to_o we_o to_o who_o we_o be_v knitten_v therefore_o in_o that_o seven_o chapter_n of_o saint_n john_n he_o say_v that_o not_o only_o his_o flesh_n but_o he_o be_v the_o bread_n of_o life_n vers_fw-la 35._o we_o must_v come_v to_o he_o believe_v in_o he_o that_o we_o may_v never_o hunger_n nor_o thirst_n and_o verse_n 46.47.48_o etc._n etc._n then_o this_o foundation_n of_o strong_a comfort_n and_o consolation_n be_v lay_v let_v we_o consider_v the_o end_n and_o fruit_n of_o the_o receyve_n of_o christ_n first_o to_o god_n glory_n than_o our_o good_a for_o god_n glory_n that_o this_o heavenly_a and_o excellent_a work_n of_o the_o possession_n of_o christ_n decread_n and_o bring_v to_o pass_v by_o one_o god_n in_o three_o person_n may_v be_v remember_v according_a

receyve_n which_o be_v inward_a and_o have_v proportion_n with_o the_o outward_a must_v be_v by_o these_o mean_n alone_o and_o so_o be_v the_o eatinge_v and_o drink_v nothing_o but_o that_o work_n of_o faith_n whereby_o christ_n be_v so_o apply_v as_o we_o feel_v ourselves_o to_o draw_v one_o spiritual_a nourishment_n by_o faith_n from_o he_o as_o be_v after_o declare_v so_o then_o we_o do_v see_v how_o excellent_a this_o outward_a work_n be_v if_o we_o consider_v aright_o the_o part_n of_o the_o same_o &_o the_o proportion_n they_o have_v with_o this_o inward_a whereunto_o now_o let_v we_o come_v and_o brief_o touch_v the_o same_o the_o work_n which_o be_v here_o represent_v and_o offer_v to_o all_o and_o seal_v up_o to_o the_o faithful_a be_v god_n give_v in_o christ_n and_o our_o receyve_n of_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n crucify_v and_o so_o of_o himself_o when_o we_o say_v that_o christ_n his_o body_n and_o blood_n be_v not_o only_o offer_v and_o give_v but_o of_o the_o faythefull_a thereof_o be_v seal_v up_o thereby_o we_o say_v that_o we_o acknowledge_v and_o hold_v christ_n to_o be_v present_a in_o deed_n even_o as_o in_o baptism_n and_o therefore_o his_o body_n and_o blood_n because_o it_o be_v receyve_v &_o be_v our_o meat_n in_o deed_n as_o we_o shall_v see_v afterward_o but_o we_o do_v not_o hold_v that_o he_o be_v bodily_a present_n in_o &_o with_o the_o bread_n or_o that_o the_o bread_n be_v turn_v into_o his_o body_n for_o as_o we_o have_v ground_n of_o the_o former_a because_o paul_n say_v the_o bread_n which_o we_o break_v be_v it_o

which_o offer_v and_o represent_v to_o all_o one_o body_n and_o seal_v up_o the_o true_a receyve_n of_o his_o very_a body_n and_o blood_n as_o be_v prove_v by_o and_o by_o in_o the_o confutinge_n of_o the_o adversary_n the_o papist_n which_o hold_v that_o the_o bread_n be_v turn_v into_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n because_o this_o be_v my_o body_n must_v be_v proper_o take_v the_o lutherian_o say_v
