life_n declare_v unto_o they_o that_o they_o must_v abstain_v from_o this_o holy_a table_n for_o fear_v of_o defile_v and_o pollute_v of_o this_o holy_a food_n which_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n do_v not_o give_v but_o to_o his_o faithful_a servant_n therefore_o according_a to_o st._n paul_n exhortation_n let_v every_o one_o of_o you_o examine_v his_o own_o conscience_n to_o know_v if_o he_o do_v true_o &_o sincere_o repent_v resolve_v hereafter_o to_o live_v holy_o according_a to_o the_o will_n of_o god_n and_o above_o all_o if_o he_o put_v his_o trust_n in_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n whole_o seek_v his_o salvation_n in_o and_o through_o jesus_n christ_n and_o renounce_v all_o enmity_n and_o hatred_n have_v a_o true_a desire_n and_o resolution_n to_o live_v in_o brotherly_a love_n and_o charity_n with_o his_o neighbour_n if_o we_o have_v this_o testimony_n in_o our_o heart_n before_o god_n let_v we_o not_o at_o all_o doubt_n but_o that_o he_o will_v receive_v we_o for_o his_o child_n and_o that_o the_o lord_n jesus_n invite_v we_o unto_o his_o table_n and_o to_o this_o holy_a sacrament_n which_o he_o have_v communicate_v unto_o his_o disciple_n and_o although_o we_o be_v conscious_a of_o our_o great_a frailty_n and_o misery_n in_o not_o have_v a_o true_a faith_n be_v incline_v to_o incredulity_n and_o diffidence_n and_o in_o not_o be_v so_o entire_o devote_v to_o serve_v god_n with_o such_o zeal_n as_o we_o ought_v be_v daily_o struggle_v with_o the_o lust_n of_o our_o flesh_n yet_o see_v our_o lord_n have_v by_o his_o grace_n engrave_v his_o gospel_n in_o our_o heart_n and_o have_v give_v we_o the_o desire_n and_o will_n of_o turn_v ourselves_o from_o our_o carnal_a lust_n to_o follow_v his_o lust_n &_o holy_a commandment_n let_v we_o be_v assure_v that_o our_o sin_n and_o imperfection_n will_v not_o hinder_v we_o from_o be_v receive_v by_o he_o and_o make_v worthy_a partaker_n of_o that_o spiritual_a table_n for_o we_o do_v not_o come_v there_o presume_v that_o we_o be_v perfect_a or_o just_a in_o otr_n self_n but_o on_o the_o contrary_a by_o seek_v our_o life_n in_o jesus_n christ_n we_o do_v confess_v we_o be_v dead_a therefore_o let_v we_o understand_v that_o this_o sacrament_n be_v a_o remedy_n for_o the_o poor_a spiritual_o sick_a and_o all_o the_o worthiness_n which_o our_o lord_n require_v of_o we_o be_v that_o we_o shall_v examine_v ourselves_o and_o be_v grieve_v for_o our_o sin_n and_o to_o place_v our_o delight_n joy_n and_o contentment_n in_o he_o alone_o let_v we_o therefore_o first_o believe_v these_o promise_n which_o jesus_n christ_n who_o be_v the_o infallible_a truth_n have_v declare_v with_o his_o own_o mouth_n namely_o that_o he_o will_v make_v we_o true_a partaker_n of_o his_o body_n and_o blood_n that_o we_o may_v so_o entire_o enjoy_v he_o as_o to_o live_v in_o he_o and_o he_o in_o we_o and_o although_o we_o do_v see_v nothing_o but_o bread_n and_o wine_n yet_o let_v we_o not_o doubt_v but_o that_o he_o will_v spiritual_o accomplish_v in_o our_o soul_n all_o that_o he_o have_v outward_o show_v we_o by_o these_o visible_a sign_n which_o be_v to_o say_v that_o he_o be_v the_o heavenly_a bread_n to_o feed_v and_o nourish_v we_o to_o eternal_a life_n so_o let_v we_o not_o be_v ungrateful_a to_o the_o infinite_a bounty_n of_o our_o saviour_n who_o display_v all_o his_o riches_n and_o benefit_n on_o this_o table_n in_o order_n to_o communicate_v they_o unto_o we_o for_o in_o give_v himself_o unto_o we_o he_o signify_v to_o we_o that_o all_o he_o have_v be_v we_o therefore_o let_v we_o receive_v this_o sacrament_n as_o a_o pledge_n that_o the_o virtue_n of_o his_o death_n and_o passion_n be_v impute_v to_o we_o for_o righteousness_n as_o if_o we_o have_v suffer_v in_o our_o own_o body_n let_v we_o not_o be_v so_o perverse_a as_o to_o refrain_v from_o this_o table_n when_o jesus_n christ_n have_v so_o kind_o invite_v we_o by_o his_o word_n but_o weigh_v the_o dignity_n of_o this_o precious_a gift_n let_v we_o present_v ourselves_o unto_o he_o with_o such_o fervent_a zeal_n as_o may_v make_v we_o capable_a of_o receive_v he_o wherefore_o let_v we_o raise_v up_o our_o heart_n and_o mind_n on_o high_a where_o jesus_n christ_n be_v in_o the_o glory_n of_o his_o father_n from_o whence_o we_o do_v expect_v he_o for_o our_o redemption_n and_o let_v we_o not_o amuse_v ourselves_o with_o these_o earthly_a and_o corruptible_a element_n which_o we_o see_v with_o the_o eye_n and_o touch_v with_o the_o hand_n nor_o seek_v he_o there_o as_o if_o he_o be_v in_o the_o bread_n and_o wine_n for_o then_o our_o soul_n will_v be_v dispose_v to_o be_v nourish_v and_o quicken_v with_o his_o substance_n when_o they_o shall_v be_v raise_v above_o all_o earthly_a thing_n into_o heaven_n the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n where_o our_o saviour_n dwell_v let_v we_o then_o content_v ourselves_o in_o our_o have_v the_o bread_n and_o wine_n for_o sign_n and_o token_n seek_v spiritual_o the_o truth_n where_o the_o word_n of_o god_n promise_n that_o we_o shall_v find_v it_o after_o the_o minister_n have_v admonish_v the_o people_n to_o come_v with_o reverence_n and_o in_o good_a order_n he_o distribute_v the_o bread_n and_o give_v the_o cup_n to_o the_o people_n and_o in_o the_o mean_a time_n they_o sing_v some_o psalm_n or_o read_v some_o part_n of_o the_o holy_a scripture_n that_o be_v agreeable_a to_o that_o which_o be_v signify_v by_o the_o sacrament_n and_o after_o he_o make_v use_v of_o the_o thanksgiving_n as_o have_v be_v before-said_a their_o form_n of_o solemnisation_n of_o matrimony_n you_o must_v observe_v that_o before_o the_o celebration_n of_o the_o marriage_n they_o do_v publish_v it_o three_o lord_n day_n successive_o in_o the_o church_n that_o if_o any_o person_n know_v any_o lawful_a impediment_n he_o or_o she_o may_v come_v to_o declare_v it_o in_o good_a time_n or_o if_o any_o other_o person_n have_v any_o interest_n therein_o
