this_o strange_a thing_n he_o find_v by_o confer_v together_o the_o day_n and_o hour_n that_o it_o be_v the_o very_a time_n that_o mass_n be_v say_v for_o he_o hence_o the_o holy_a doctor_n infer_v what_o great_a force_n and_o efficacy_n be_v in_o this_o most_o divine_a sacrifice_n to_o release_v man_n from_o the_o spiritual_a fetter_n of_o sin_n wherein_o be_v so_o great_a strength_n to_o

we_o have_v commit_v may_v be_v abolish_v that_o thou_o o_o lord_n be_v propitious_a and_o merciful_a unto_o thy_o people_n that_o by_o the_o oblation_n of_o this_o gracious_a &_o divine_a sacrifice_n we_o may_v be_v hold_v worthy_a of_o eternal_a life_n the_o mass_n of_o s._n basil_n say_v let_v this_o sacrifice_n be_v acceptable_a for_o our_o sin_n &_o for_o the_o ignorances_n of_o the_o people_n

the_o canon_n of_o the_o mass_n we_o say_v that_o we_o offer_v this_o sacrifice_n for_o the_o redemption_n of_o our_o soul_n that_o the_o mass_n be_v a_o most_o efficacious_a sacrifice_n to_o obtain_v whatsoever_o we_o demand_v chap._n x._o as_o concern_v the_o four_o title_n and_o reason_n of_o offer_v sacrifice_n to_o the_o end_n to_o obtain_v of_o god_n that_o which_o we_o demand_v it_o be_v clear_a that_o our_o sacrifice_n do_v far_o excel_v all_o other_o for_o if_o the_o offering_n unto_o god_n of_o a_o lamb_n or_o kidd_v or_o some_o other_o bruit_n creature_n be_v so_o efficacious_a a_o mean_n to_o obtain_v the_o thing_n desire_v and_o therefore_o such_o kind_n of_o sacrifice_n be_v ordinary_o offer_v how_o much_o great_a efficacy_n be_v there_o in_o the_o offering_n unto_o he_o his_o very_a son_n with_o the_o whole_a treasure_n of_o his_o merit_n without_o doubt_v this_o be_v great_a beyond_o comparison_n if_o god_n make_v such_o promise_n unto_o abraham_n confirm_v by_o

bestow_v on_o they_o that_o offer_v and_o sacrifice_n unto_o he_o real_o &_o true_o his_o only_a beget_v son_n what_o favour_n will_v he_o not_o grant_v what_o can_v one_o ask_v with_o such_o a_o present_a that_o he_o will_v not_o give_v with_o reason_n we_o may_v here_o use_v the_o word_n of_o the_o apostle_n saint_n paul_n he_o that_o spare_v not_o his_o only_a son_n but_o give_v he_o for_o we_o all_o how_o can_v it_o be_v that_o he_o have_v not_o give_v we_o all_o together_o with_o he_o or_o how_o can_v he_o deny_v we_o any_o thing_n that_o we_o can_v ask_v if_o the_o law_n both_o human_a and_o divine_a so_o strict_o prohibit_v unto_o judge_n and_o prince_n who_o office_n be_v to_o govern_v the_o affair_n of_o the_o commonwealth_n &_o to_o pronounce_v sentence_n in_o case_n of_o difference_n to_o receive_v gift_n or_o present_n because_o receive_v they_o they_o remain_v even_o in_o nature_n oblige_v to_o requite_v they_o and_o to_o gratify_v such_o as_o give_v they_o so_o that_o it_o seem_v impossible_a that_o they_o shall_v not_o favour_v they_o why_o may_v we_o not_o presume_v that_o god_n be_v in_o a_o certain_a manner_n bind_v to_o do_v we_o favour_n have_v receive_v of_o we_o a_o gift_n so_o great_a and_o precious_a as_o we_o offer_v he_o in_o the_o mass_n and_o if_o the_o proverb_n that_o gift_n break_v rock_n be_v true_a as_o experience_n show_v it_o be_v there_o be_v no_o hart_n so_o hard_o which_o present_n do_v not_o make_v relent_n &_o yield_v unto_o the_o giver_n how_o can_v we_o think_v that_o god_n have_v a_o hart_n not_o of_o stone_n nor_o hard_a but_o most_o sweet_a love_v merciful_a &_o incline_v to_o do_v we_o favour_n will_v forbear_v to_o do_v we_o any_o thing_n we_o shall_v request_v have_v take_v of_o we_o such_o a_o rich_a gift_n as_o we_o present_v he_o in_o our_o sacrifice_n certain_a it_o be_v that_o the_o holy_a sacrifice_n of_o the_o mass_n be_v a_o most_o efficacious_a mean_n to_o obtain_v of_o god_n all_o that_o we_o desire_v so_o that_o the_o church_n do_v ever_o use_v to_o say_v mass_n to_o ask_v of_o god_n health_n peace_n prosperity_n &_o other_o benefit_n general_a and_o particular_a as_o well_o corporal_a as_o spiritual_a neither_o need_v i_o stay_v long_o in_o prove_v so_o clear_a and_o receive_v a_o truth_n wherefore_o i_o will_v only_o here_o set_v down_o a_o most_o prudent_a and_o pious_a consideration_n of_o a_o grave_n and_o learned_a divine_a of_o our_o age_n most_o true_a &_o conformable_a both_o unto_o theology_n &_o holy_a scripture_n this_o be_v that_o christ_n our_o lord_n now_o in_o heaven_n though_o he_o be_v not_o in_o the_o state_n to_o merit_v or_o satisfy_v for_o we_o a_o new_a yet_o he_o be_v in_o a_o state_n where_o he_o may_v pray_v and_o make_v intercession_n for_o man_n as_o in_o verity_n he_o do_v 2._o according_a as_o the_o apostle_n do_v witness_v that_o he_o do_v plead_v for_o we_o 6._o and_o at_o the_o judgement_n seat_n of_o god_n be_v our_o solicitor_n and_o as_o s._n john_n say_v 2._o we_o have_v a_o advocate_n unto_o god_n the_o father_n christ_n jesus_n the_o iust._n hereupon_o this_o learned_a author_n say_v that_o it_o be_v a_o thing_n very_o credible_a &_o likely_a that_o christ_n our_o lord_n as_o often_o as_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o the_o mass_n be_v offer_v do_v intercede_v and_o pray_v for_o they_o that_o offer_v it_o and_o also_o for_o they_o for_o who_o it_o be_v offer_v a_o consideration_n most_o true_a for_o see_v it_o be_v most_o certain_a that_o christ_n our_o lord_n do_v actual_o and_o in_o truth_n exercise_v the_o office_n of_o our_o priest_n and_o advocate_n see_v also_o that_o the_o proper_a office_n of_o priest_n be_v to_o pray_v &_o intercede_v for_o the_o people_n we_o may_v rest_v in_o this_o persuasion_n without_o any_o doubt_n that_o our_o lord_n be_v in_o all_o his_o action_n most_o perfect_a will_v complet_o perform_v this_o office_n not_o only_o by_o offer_v the_o sacrifice_n particular_o for_o they_o for_o who_o it_o be_v offer_v whereof_o there_o be_v no_o question_n but_o also_o by_o pray_v &_o intercede_v actual_o for_o they_o that_o they_o may_v obtain_v what_o they_o request_v and_o desire_n if_o the_o same_o agree_v with_o their_o salvation_n and_o god_n glory_n and_o it_o may_v seem_v that_o the_o apostle_n s_o paul_n in_o his_o epistle_n to_o the_o hebrew_n do_v signify_v or_o insinuate_v this_o truth_n where_o treat_v of_o the_o eternal_a priesthood_n of_o christ_n he_o say_v that_o he_o can_v save_v for_o ever_o they_o that_o by_o he_o have_v access_n unto_o god_n who_o live_v ever_o to_o intercede_v and_o plead_v for_o we_o and_o thereupon_o he_o straight_o add_v it_o be_v convenient_a that_o we_o shall_v have_v such_o a_o highpriest_n 7._o where_o he_o seem_v to_o conjoin_v pray_v and_o intercede_v for_o we_o with_o the_o office_n of_o priesthood_n signify_v that_o to_o discharge_v that_o duty_n perfect_o it_o be_v necessary_a that_o he_o pray_v and_o intercede_v for_o they_o that_o be_v under_o his_o charge_n and_o more_o particular_o for_o they_o for_o who_o he_o offer_v his_o sacrifice_n which_o thing_n be_v no_o way_n inconvenient_a in_o christ_n but_o very_o agree_v with_o reason_n as_o the_o venerable_a father_n dionysius_n carthusianus_n note_n in_o his_o declaration_n of_o this_o speech_n of_o the_o apostle_n qui_fw-la etiam_fw-la interpellat_n pro_fw-la nobis_fw-la which_o also_o be_v the_o doctrine_n of_o that_o great_a saint_n laurence_n patriarch_n who_o wryte_n thus_o in_o a_o certain_a sermon_n when_o christ_n be_v sacrifice_v upon_o the_o altar_n our_o say_a redeemer_n cry_v for_o we_o unto_o his_o father_n show_v the_o sacred_a mark_n of_o his_o wound_n to_o save_v man_n from_o eternal_a punishment_n by_o his_o intercession_n this_o be_v so_o as_o i_o do_v firm_o believe_v it_o be_v what_o a_o sovereign_a and_o excellent_a thing_n and_o full_a of_o reverence_n and_o veneration_n be_v the_o holy_a sacrifice_n of_o the_o mass_n if_o we_o do_v high_o esteem_v that_o some_o saint_n in_o heaven_n pray_v particular_o &_o actual_o for_o we_o or_o some_o person_n live_v upon_o earth_n who_o we_o know_v to_o be_v virtuous_a &_o in_o singular_a favour_n with_o god_n how_o much_o more_o ought_v we_o to_o prize_v the_o only_a son_n of_o god_n his_o pray_n and_o intercession_n for_o we_o unto_o his_o eternal_a father_n out_o

and_o in_o essence_n it_o shall_v be_v the_o very_a same_o and_o to_o the_o end_n that_o the_o defect_n and_o unworthynes_n of_o priest_n may_v not_o prejudice_n in_o any_o kind_n or_o diminish_v the_o value_n and_o dignity_n of_o a_o sacrifice_n so_o high_a and_o divine_a he_o will_v himself_n still_o remain_v with_o the_o office_n and_o stile_n of_o eternal_a priest_n real_o and_o in_o
