the_o sante_fw-it father_n the_o body_n of_o christ_n be_v so_o call_v proper_o and_o improper_o proper_o that_o body_n which_o be_v take_v of_o the_o virgin._n improper_o as_o the_o sacrament_n and_o the_o church_n that_o the_o church_n be_v not_o proper_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n can_v be_v doubt_v by_o any_o it_o remain_v that_o we_o now_o prove_v the_o same_o of_o the_o sacrament_n it_o may_v easy_o be_v observe_v from_o what_o chrysostom_n write_v in_o this_o place_n that_o that_o which_o christ_n call_v his_o body_n when_o he_o say_v take_v eat_v this_o be_v my_o body_n and_o which_o be_v receive_v together_o with_o his_o apostle_n be_v in_o another_o manner_n his_o body_n than_o be_v his_o very_a proper_a body_n which_o be_v feed_v with_o that_o other_o this_o do_v eat_v that_o be_v eat_v and_o each_o be_v call_v his_o body_n but_o in_o a_o different_a manner_n he_o give_v the_o sacrament_n of_o his_o body_n and_o not_o the_o body_n itself_o visible_o conceive_v that_o be_v his_o visible_a body_n which_o be_v refer_v to_o his_o proper_a body_n but_o this_o body_n wherever_o it_o be_v be_v visible_a it_o be_v to_o be_v observe_v that_o the_o truth_n of_o the_o lord_n body_n may_v be_v speak_v two_o way_n and_o aught_o to_o be_v understand_v two_o way_n for_o one_o verity_n of_o his_o body_n be_v require_v in_o the_o sacrament_n another_o simple_o and_o out_o of_o the_o sacrament_n as_o for_o what_o concern_v our_o purpose_n the_o very_a word_n of_o cyprian_a sufficient_o demonstrate_v how_o the_o letter_n be_v not_o to_o be_v follow_v in_o those_o thing_n which_o relate_v to_o this_o mystery_n how_o far_o all_o carnal_a sense_n be_v to_o be_v remove_v and_o all_o thing_n to_o be_v refer_v to_o a_o spiritual_a sense_n that_o with_o this_o bread_n be_v present_a the_o divine_a virtue_n the_o effect_n of_o eternal_a life_n that_o the_o divine_a essence_n be_v infuse_v that_o the_o word_n be_v spirit_n and_o life_n that_o a_o spiritual_a precept_n be_v deliver_v that_o this_o body_n this_o flesh_n and_o blood_n this_o substance_n of_o the_o body_n ought_v not_o to_o be_v understand_v after_o a_o common_a manner_n nor_o according_a to_o the_o dictate_v of_o human_a reason_n but_o be_v so_o name_v think_v and_o believe_v because_o of_o certain_a eminent_a effect_n virtue_n and_o property_n which_o be_v join_v to_o it_o which_o be_v natural_o find_v in_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n to_o wit_n that_o it_o feed_v and_o quicken_v our_o soul_n and_o prepare_v our_o body_n to_o resurrection_n and_o immortality_n here_o it_o be_v to_o be_v remember_v that_o the_o word_n be_v spiritual_a and_o spiritual_o to_o be_v understand_v that_o it_o be_v indeed_o name_v flesh_n and_o blood_n but_o that_o this_o aught_o to_o be_v understand_v of_o the_o spirit_n and_o life_n that_o be_v of_o the_o lively_a virtue_n of_o the_o flesh_n of_o our_o lord_n so_o that_o the_o efficacy_n of_o life_n be_v confer_v on_o the_o external_a sign_n when_o theophylact_v say_v that_o the_o bread_n be_v not_o the_o figure_n of_o our_o lord_n body_n he_o mean_v that_o it_o be_v not_o only_o or_o a_o bare_a figure_n of_o it_o see_v how_o chrysostom_n say_v that_o we_o be_v real_o as_o i_o may_v so_o say_v turn_v into_o the_o flesh_n of_o christ_n yet_o who_o do_v not_o see_v that_o this_o be_v a_o spiritual_a not_o a_o carnal_a conversion_n so_o the_o bread_n be_v real_o turn_v and_o transelementate_v into_o the_o flesh_n of_o christ_n but_o by_o a_o spiritual_a not_o a_o carnal_a conversion_n inasmuch_o as_o as_o the_o bread_n obtain_v the_o virtue_n of_o the_o flesh_n how_o much_o better_o do_v cyprian_a ambrose_n epiphanius_n emysenus_n and_o other_o speak_v who_o teach_v a_o like_a change_n to_o be_v perform_v in_o the_o eucharist_n as_o be_v perform_v in_o baptism_n by_o which_o the_o external_a sign_n remain_v the_o same_o and_o by_o grace_n acquire_v a_o new_a substance_n in_o the_o same_o manner_n the_o exposition_n and_o doctrine_n of_o bertram_n concern_v the_o sacrament_n aught_o in_o my_o opinion_n to_o be_v diligent_o examine_v and_o embrace_v for_o two_o reason_n that_o this_o may_v appear_v more_o manifest_o and_o be_v remember_v the_o better_a i_o think_v it_o not_o unfit_a to_o subjoin_v from_o what_o i_o have_v already_o teach_v a_o certain_a comparison_n between_o the_o two_o body_n of_o christ_n the_o proper_a body_n of_o christ_n have_v head_n breast_n and_o distinct_a member_n the_o mystical_a body_n have_v not_o the_o proper_a body_n have_v bone_n vein_n and_o nerve_n the_o mystical_a body_n have_v not_o that_o be_v organical_a this_o be_v not_o that_o be_v not_o a_o figure_n this_o be_v a_o figure_n of_o the_o proper_a body_n that_o be_v human_a and_o corporeal_a by_o its_o nature_n this_o be_v heavenly_a divine_a and_o spiritual_a the_o matter_n of_o that_o be_v not_o subject_a to_o corruption_n the_o material_a part_n of_o this_o be_v bread_n and_o be_v corrupt_v that_o be_v contain_v in_o one_o place_n this_o be_v present_a wheresoever_o the_o sacrament_n be_v celebrate_v but_o not_o as_o in_o a_o place_n that_o be_v not_o the_o sacrament_n of_o another_o body_n this_o the_o sacrament_n of_o another_o that_o be_v take_v of_o the_o body_n of_o the_o virgin_n mary_n and_o be_v once_o create_v this_o be_v not_o take_v of_o the_o virgin_n but_o be_v create_v daily_o by_o the_o mystical_a benediction_n potential_o that_o be_v a_o natural_a body_n this_o supernatural_a last_o that_o be_v simple_o proper_o and_o absolute_o his_o body_n this_o in_o a_o certain_a respect_n only_o and_o improper_o nor_o be_v it_o enough_o here_o if_o we_o flee_v one_o way_n of_o carnal_o understand_v it_o and_o fall_v upon_o another_o for_o he_o who_o literal_o understand_v the_o eat_n of_o the_o flesh_n of_o christ_n and_o as_o although_o it_o be_v a_o proper_a speech_n he_o be_v a_o carnal_a capernaite_n whether_o he_o imagine_v it_o to_o be_v proper_o do_v this_o way_n or_o that_o way_n for_o it_o be_v probable_a that_o all_o the_o capernaite_v understand_v christ_n carnal_o but_o not_o all_o the_o same_o way_n for_o it_o be_v not_o therefore_o to_o be_v account_v a_o spiritual_a sense_n because_o they_o say_v the_o flesh_n of_o christ_n be_v there_o invisible_o present_a for_o if_o they_o mean_v his_o proper_a flesh_n we_o do_v not_o therefore_o not_o eat_v it_o carnal_o because_o we_o do_v not_o see_v it_o now_o in_o this_o sacrament_n the_o ancient_a father_n observe_v two_o thing_n for_o each_o of_o which_o it_o may_v deserve_o be_v call_v and_o esteem_v the_o body_n of_o christ_n but_o more_o especial_o when_o it_o comprehend_v both_o for_o the_o bread_n be_v just_o call_v his_o body_n as_o well_o because_o it_o be_v the_o figure_n of_o his_o true_a body_n as_o because_o it_o have_v the_o lively_a virtue_n of_o it_o conjoin_v to_o it_o much_o more_o but_o most_o especial_o because_o it_o comprehend_v both_o it_o be_v therefore_o to_o be_v admire_v what_o they_o mean_v who_o will_v not_o suffer_v it_o to_o be_v call_v a_o figure_n nor_o acknowledge_v any_o figure_n in_o the_o word_n of_o institution_n but_o contumelious_o call_v those_o who_o own_o it_o figurative_a man_n whereas_o it_o be_v manifest_a that_o all_o the_o ancient_n do_v so_o call_v it_o and_o indeed_o if_o there_o be_v no_o figure_n in_o it_o it_o will_v be_v neither_o a_o sign_n nor_o sacrament_n so_o that_o those_o who_o traduce_v the_o maintainer_n of_o the_o other_o opinion_n as_o sacramentary_n do_v indeed_o take_v away_o all_o sacrament_n from_o it_o there_o be_v yet_o another_o thing_n which_o the_o ancient_a father_n acknowledge_v to_o be_v in_o this_o sacrament_n teach_v it_o to_o be_v true_o the_o body_n of_o our_o lord_n and_o that_o be_v the_o efficacious_a and_o lively_a virtue_n of_o the_o body_n itself_o which_o be_v join_v with_o the_o bread_n and_o wine_n by_o grace_n and_o mystical_a benediction_n and_o be_v call_v by_o divers_a name_n although_o it_o be_v the_o same_o thing_n by_o augustine_n the_o intelligible_a invisible_a and_o spiritual_a body_n by_o jerome_n the_o divine_a and_o spiritual_a flesh_n by_o irenaeus_n a_o heavenly_a thing_n by_o ambrose_n the_o spiritual_a food_n and_o body_n of_o the_o divine_a spirit_n by_o other_o some_o other_o like_a thing_n and_o this_o do_v chief_o cause_v this_o sacrament_n to_o be_v worthy_a of_o the_o appellation_n of_o his_o true_a body_n and_o blood_n since_o it_o do_v not_o only_o external_o bear_v the_o image_n and_o figure_n of_o it_o but_o also_o carry_v along_o with_o it_o the_o inward_a and_o hide_a natural_a propriety_n of_o the_o same_o body_n so_o that_o it_o can_v be_v esteem_v a_o empty_a figure_n or_o the_o sign_n of_o a_o thing_n whole_o absent_a but_o the_o very_a body_n of_o our_o lord_n divine_a indeed_o
