word_n that_o be_v that_o the_o natural_a substance_n of_o bread_n and_o wine_n be_v the_o true_a material_a substance_n of_o the_o holy_a sacrament_n of_o the_o bless_a body_n &_o blood_n of_o our_o

blood_n first_fw-ge let_v we_o repete_fw-la the_o beginning_a of_o the_o institution_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n wherein_o all_o y_o e_o three_o evangeliste_n and_o s._n paul_n almost_o in_o word_n do_v agree_v say_v that_o jesus_n take_v bread_n give_v thanks_n brake_n and_o give_v it_o to_o the_o disciple_n say_v take_v eat_v this_o be_v my_o body_n here_o it_o appear_v plain_o that_o christ_n call_v very_a bread_n his_o body_n for_o that_o which_o he_o take_v be_v very_o bread_n in_o this_o all_o man_n do_v agree_v and_o that_o which_o he_o take_v after_o he_o have_v give_v thanks_n he_o break_v and_o that_o which_o he_o take_v and_o break_v he_o give_v to_o his_o disciple_n &_o that_o which_o he_o take_v break_v and_o give_v to_o his_o disciple_n he_o say_v himself_o of_o it_o this_o be_v my_o body_n so_o it_o appear_v plain_o that_o christ_n call_v very_a bread_n his_o body_n but_o very_a bread_n can_v be_v his_o body_n in_o very_a substance_n thereof_o argument_n therefore_o it_o must_v needs_o have_v a_o other_o meaning_n which_o meaning_n appear_v plain_o what_o it_o be_v by_o the_o next_o sentence_n that_o follow_v imediatlye_o both_o in_o luke_n &_o in_o paul_n and_o y_o it_o be_v this_o do_v this_o in_o remembrance_n of_o i_o whereupon_o it_o seem_v unto_o i_o to_o evident_a that_o christ_n do_v take_v bread_n &_o call_v it_o his_o body_n for_o that_o he_o will_v thereby_o institute_v a_o perpetual_a remembrance_n of_o his_o body_n special_o of_o y_z e_z singular_a benefit_n of_o our_o redemption_n which_o he_o will_v then_o procure_v and_o purchase_v unto_o we_o by_o his_o body_n upon_o the_o cross_n but_o bread_n retain_v still_o his_o own_o very_a natural_a substance_n may_v be_v thus_o by_o grace_n and_o in_o a_o sacramental_a signification_n his_o

and_o therefore_o the_o very_a word_n of_o christ_n join_v with_o the_o next_o sentence_n follow_v both_o enforce_v we_o to_o confess_v the_o very_a bread_n to_o remain_v still_o and_o also_o open_v unto_o we_o how_o that_o bread_n may_v be_v and_o be_v thus_o by_o his_o divine_a power_n his_o body_n which_o be_v give_fw-ge for_fw-mi us._n but_o here_o i_o remember_v i_o have_v red_a in_o some_o

speak_v and_o by_o his_o blessing_n he_o change_v the_o natural_a substance_n of_o the_o bread_n in_o to_o the_o natural_a substance_n of_o his_o body_n and_o so_o although_o he_o take_v the_o bread_n and_o bless_v it_o yet_o because_o in_o blessing_n he_o change_v the_o substance_n of_o it_o he_o break_v not_o the_o bread_n which_o than_o be_v not_o there_o but_o only_o the_o form_n thereof_o
