and_o the_o multiplication_n of_o priest_n in_o succession_n arise_v mere_o from_o the_o mortality_n and_o death_n of_o they_o that_o precede_v they_o believe_v that_o no_o priest_n can_v be_v

but_o that_o any_o shall_v intervene_v between_o god_n and_o christ_n in_o sacrifice_v or_o the_o discharge_n of_o his_o priestly_a office_n you_o will_v not_o find_v your_o countryman_n ready_a to_o

sacrifice_n of_o the_o mass_n be_v a_o high_a derogation_n from_o the_o virtue_n and_o efficacy_n of_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o christ_n on_o the_o cross_n and_o to_o be_v set_v up_o in_o competition_n with_o it_o 7._o they_o be_v at_o a_o stand_n at_o the_o whole_a matter_n to_o see_v you_o turn_v bread_n and_o wine_n into_o that_o very_a body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n which_o suffer_v on_o the_o cross_n and_o then_o to_o worship_v they_o and_o then_o to_o pray_v to_o god_n to_o accept_v at_o your_o hand_n that_o christ_n which_o you_o have_v make_v and_o then_o to_o eat_v he_o but_o when_o they_o consider_v that_o by_o so_o do_v you_o suppose_v yourselves_o to_o effect_v that_o which_o they_o believe_v to_o be_v wrought_v only_o by_o the_o blood_n of_o the_o cross_n of_o christ_n once_o offer_v for_o all_o and_o therein_o fancy_v a_o sacrifice_n of_o christ_n wherein_o he_o die_v not_o contrary_a to_o so_o many_o express_a testimony_n of_o scripture_n they_o be_v utter_o averse_a from_o it_o for_o whereas_o they_o look_v for_o redemption_n forgiveness_n of_o sin_n and_o reconciliation_n with_o god_n by_o the_o one_o sacrifice_n of_o christ_n upon_o the_o cross_n wherein_o consist_v the_o foundation_n of_o their_o hope_n and_o consolation_n because_o it_o be_v absolute_o perfect_a be_v every_o way_n able_a and_o sufficient_a without_o any_o repetition_n as_o the_o apostle_n teach_v they_o to_o take_v away_o sin_n and_o for_o ever_o to_o consummate_v they_o that_o be_v sanctify_v you_o teach_v they_o now_o to_o look_v for_o the_o same_o thing_n from_o this_o sacrifice_n of_o you_o which_o will_v make_v they_o question_v the_o validity_n and_o perfection_n of_o that_o of_o christ._n 8._o and_o when_o they_o have_v so_o do_v yet_o they_o will_v
