when_o the_o priest_n pronounce_v the_o word_n of_o consecration_n in_o every_o matter_n let_v he_o always_o intend_v to_o make_v that_o which_o christ_n institute_v and_o the_o church_n also_o do_v

we_o advise_v also_o that_o the_o priest_n get_v the_o canon_n by_o heart_n for_o so_o he_o may_v say_v it_o more_o devout_o yet_o let_v the_o book_n be_v always_o before_o he_o because_o if_o he_o shall_v chance_v to_o miss_v he_o may_v have_v recourse_n to_o it_o observation_n 1_o here_o to_o be_v sure_o the_o priest_n choose_v the_o large_a cake_n to_o mâ—ke_v a_o lusty_a god_n for_o
