of_o galilee_n he_o commend_v virginity_n reprove_v those_o at_o the_o same_o time_n who_o condemn_v matrimony_n and_o warn_v parent_n that_o though_o they_o may_v inspire_v into_o their_o child_n

if_o any_o be_v void_v they_o be_v produce_v by_o the_o flesh_n of_o the_o man_n himself_o or_o supply_v some_o other_o way_n he_o further_o maintain_v that_o though_o the_o bread_n and_o wine_n

to_o punish_v the_o incredulity_n of_o the_o wicked_a or_o the_o carelessness_n of_o minister_n after_o he_o have_v thus_o resolve_v that_o question_n he_o pass_v on_o to_o other_o that_o be_v less_o considerable_a namely_o 1._o why_o god_n who_o be_v invisible_a will_v have_v we_o to_o offer_v he_o a_o visible_a sacrifice_n to_o this_o he_o answer_v that_o it_o be_v to_o put_v man_n in_o mind_n of_o what_o they_o owe_v he_o and_o because_o man_n be_v a_o compound_v creature_n make_v up_o of_o a_o soul_n and_o body_n it_o be_v reasonable_a he_o shall_v offer_v to_o god_n both_o corporeal_a and_o spiritual_a sacrifice_n 2._o the_o second_o question_n be_v why_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o the_o church_n be_v make_v up_o of_o a_o sacrament_n and_o the_o body_n of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o why_o it_o be_v not_o either_o a_o simple_a sacrament_n or_o the_o visible_a body_n of_o jesus_n christ_n this_o he_o resolve_v by_o say_v that_o if_o the_o eucharist_n be_v a_o simple_a sacrament_n it_o will_v not_o be_v different_a from_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o old_a law_n and_o that_o if_o the_o body_n of_o jesus_n christ_n shall_v appear_v therein_o open_o it_o will_v be_v subject_a to_o great_a inconvenience_n for_o say_v he_o it_o will_v appear_v either_o alive_a or_o dead_a but_o it_o can_v appear_v as_o dead_a since_o he_o be_v live_v and_o if_o it_o appear_v alive_a it_o will_v either_o be_v in_o the_o same_o state_n wherein_o it_o be_v before_o his_o passion_n or_o in_o the_o same_o state_n wherein_o it_o be_v after_o his_o resurrection_n in_o the_o first_o case_n it_o will_v be_v impossible_a to_o swallow_v it_o and_o in_o the_o second_o man_n will_v not_o be_v able_a to_o endure_v the_o brightness_n of_o its_o glory_n that_o beside_o it_o be_v necessary_a that_o the_o body_n of_o jesus_n christ_n shall_v be_v conceal_v under_o shadow_n and_o representation_n to_o exercise_v the_o faith_n of_o the_o one_o and_o to_o prevent_v other_o from_o utter_v blasphemy_n and_o from_o charge_v the_o christian_n with_o eat_v and_o drink_v humane_a flesh_n and_o blood_n the_o three_o question_n be_v 3._o why_o god_n require_v so_o much_o faith_n in_o this_o sacrament_n he_o answer_v that_o man_n be_v in_o a_o lapse_v state_n because_o adam_n by_o give_v too_o much_o credit_n to_o the_o word_n of_o the_o devil_n have_v eat_v of_o the_o forbid_a fruit_n it_o be_v necessary_a we_o shall_v be_v save_v by_o believe_v the_o word_n of_o god_n who_o enjoin_v we_o to_o eat_v his_o body_n and_o drink_v his_o blood_n in_o this_o sacrament_n 4._o the_o four_o question_n be_v why_o we_o make_v use_v of_o bread_n and_o wine_n rather_o than_o any_o other_o creature_n for_o this_o he_o assign_v several_a reason_n because_o bread_n and_o wine_n be_v the_o ordinary_a nourishment_n of_o man_n which_o support_v the_o corporeal_a life_n as_o the_o eucharist_n be_v the_o nourishment_n of_o the_o soul_n which_o support_v the_o spiritual_a life_n because_o as_o the_o bread_n and_o wine_n be_v change_v into_o flesh_n and_o blood_n so_o they_o be_v here_o change_v into_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o jesus_n chrst_n because_o the_o bread_n be_v make_v up_o of_o several_a grain_n of_o corn_n and_o the_o wine_n out_o of_o several_a bunch_n of_o grape_n be_v a_o figure_n of_o the_o unity_n of_o the_o church_n which_o be_v make_v up_o of_o several_a person_n 5._o the_o five_o question_n be_v why_o we_o do_v not_o immediate_o enjoy_v life_n eternal_a after_o have_v receive_v the_o body_n of_o jesus_n christ_n he_o reply_v that_o it_o be_v because_o we_o may_v have_v time_n to_o exercise_v ourselves_o in_o virtue_n 6._o the_o six_o question_n be_v why_o god_n bestow_v a_o eternal_a recompense_n on_o temporal_a merit_n it_o be_v say_v he_o because_o he_o regard_v not_o the_o temporal_a action_n but_o reward_n or_o punish_v the_o eternal_a propensity_n and_o inclination_n of_o do_v good_a or_o evil._n 7._o the_o seven_o question_n be_v why_o bread_n be_v consecrate_v into_o the_o body_n and_o wine_n into_o the_o blood_n of_o jesus_n christ_n he_o reply_v that_o it_o be_v not_o because_o the_o body_n of_o jesus_n christ_n be_v without_o the_o blood_n or_o the_o blood_n without_o the_o body_n since_o jesus_n christ_n be_v whole_a and_o entire_a under_o each_o kind_a but_o that_o we_o offer_v and_o communicate_v under_o these_o two_o kind_n because_o of_o the_o different_a mystery_n which_o they_o figure_v out_o to_o we_o 8._o the_o eight_o question_n be_v why_o we_o make_v use_v of_o white_a bread_n rather_o than_o brown_n though_o at_o the_o same_o time_n we_o consecrate_v wine_n of_o all_o sort_n of_o colour_n he_o answer_v that_o in_o case_n of_o necessity_n one_o may_v make_v use_n of_o any_o sort_n of_o bread_n but_o that_o it_o be_v proper_a to_o use_v the_o white_a because_o it_o be_v to_o be_v change_v into_o the_o glorious_a body_n of_o the_o spotless_a lamb._n 9_o the_o nine_o and_o last_o question_n be_v why_o we_o make_v use_v of_o unleavened_a rather_o than_o leaven_a bread_n although_o we_o indifferent_o make_v use_v of_o wine_n that_o have_v lees_n as_o well_o as_o of_o that_o which_o have_v none_o he_o say_v that_o this_o be_v a_o grand_a dispute_n between_o the_o latin_n and_o the_o greek_n who_o treat_v one_o another_o as_o heretic_n and_o call_v each_o other_o azymite_v and_o fermentarians_n though_o one_o may_v safe_o use_v the_o one_o as_o well_o as_o the_o other_o that_o notwithstanding_o this_o jesus_n christ_n make_v use_v of_o unleavened_a bread_n as_o a_o figure_n of_o purity_n he_o likewise_o relate_v the_o reason_n of_o the_o greek_n and_o after_o he_o have_v answer_v they_o he_o conclude_v that_o it_o be_v better_a to_o make_v use_n of_o unleavened_a bread_n which_o he_o believe_v to_o have_v be_v the_o custom_n of_o the_o latin_a church_n from_o its_o beginning_n in_o the_o last_o book_n he_o discourse_n of_o several_a other_o point_n which_o relate_v to_o the_o minister_n of_o the_o eucharist_n and_o in_o the_o first_o place_n he_o demand_v whether_o heretic_n and_o schismatic_n which_o be_v without_o the_o pale_a of_o the_o church_n do_v consecrate_v the_o body_n of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o at_o first_o he_o produce_v the_o testimony_n of_o the_o father_n which_o seem_v to_o prove_v that_o they_o do_v not_o consecrate_v according_a to_o due_a form_n but_o afterward_o have_v lay_v it_o down_o as_o a_o principle_n that_o the_o validity_n of_o the_o sacrament_n do_v not_o depend_v on_o the_o faith_n or_o piety_n of_o the_o minister_n he_o conclude_v that_o as_o heretic_n and_o schismatic_n may_v baptize_v so_o likewise_o can_v they_o consecrate_v and_o that_o the_o ordination_n of_o priesthood_n be_v as_o much_o among_o they_o as_o baptism_n this_o he_o prove_v from_o several_a principle_n and_o passage_n of_o s._n augustin_n and_o reply_n to_o those_o passage_n which_o he_o at_o first_o start_v against_o the_o sacrament_n of_o heretic_n and_o schismatic_n which_o he_o say_v ought_v not_o to_o be_v understand_v of_o the_o sacrament_n themselves_o but_o of_o the_o abuse_n which_o they_o make_v of_o they_o since_o they_o be_v so_o far_o from_o be_v beneficial_a to_o they_o that_o they_o render_v they_o the_o more_o criminal_a he_o afterward_o ask_v whether_o the_o sacrament_n be_v valid_a if_o any_o addition_n or_o alteration_n be_v make_v of_o the_o word_n of_o the_o office_n either_o by_o the_o wickedness_n or_o carelessness_n of_o he_o who_o officiate_n he_o explain_v this_o question_n as_o it_o relate_v to_o baptism_n and_o after_o he_o have_v cite_v several_a passage_n out_o of_o s._n augustin_n and_o the_o pope_n and_o among_o other_o out_o of_o pope_n zachary_n he_o conclude_v that_o provide_v the_o essential_a word_n be_v recite_v though_o by_o carelessness_n it_o happen_v that_o needless_a word_n be_v add_v thereto_o or_o some_o ceremony_n be_v leave_v out_o yet_o this_o do_v not_o hinder_v the_o efficacy_n of_o the_o sacrament_n he_o do_v not_o apply_v this_o principle_n to_o the_o eucharist_n but_o only_o say_v in_o general_a that_o in_o the_o celebration_n of_o these_o holy_a mystery_n we_o ought_v not_o to_o introduce_v any_o heresy_n or_o novelty_n but_o faithful_o to_o observe_v the_o institution_n of_o jesus_n christ_n that_o so_o as_o those_o mystery_n be_v true_o effect_v by_o his_o power_n and_o found_v upon_o his_o authority_n they_o may_v be_v likewise_o profitable_a to_o we_o by_o
church_n and_o if_o not_o in_o one_o church_n much_o more_o not_o in_o two_o where_o the_o distance_n of_o the_o place_n render_v a_o man_n less_o capable_a of_o satisfy_v his_o duty_n 4._o because_o this_o plurality_n of_o benefice_n in_o the_o same_o person_n take_v away_o a_o great_a many_o member_n from_o the_o church_n and_o deprive_v it_o of_o a_o great_a number_n of_o minister_n 5._o because_o it_o be_v not_o charity_n but_o covetousness_n and_o ambition_n that_o make_v man_n desire_v more_o benefice_n than_o one_o 6._o he_o say_v that_o it_o be_v as_o impossible_a that_o a_o man_n shall_v have_v two_o benefice_n as_o that_o the_o same_o member_n shall_v assist_v two_o body_n at_o once_o or_o the_o same_o tree_n be_v plant_v in_o two_o place_n he_o answer_v a_o objection_n that_o come_v natural_o in_o his_o way_n namely_o that_o see_v there_o be_v live_n the_o revenue_n of_o which_o be_v far_o more_o considerable_a than_o those_o of_o other_o it_o seem_v as_o allowable_a to_o have_v many_o little_a one_o with_o a_o small_a revenue_n as_o one_o great_a live_v which_o be_v worth_a ten_o or_o twelve_o other_o he_o say_v that_o this_o thought_n proceed_v from_o a_o false_a opinion_n that_o one_o be_v in_o live_n only_o to_o look_v upon_o the_o revenue_n without_o regard_v the_o charge_n and_o office_n for_o every_o live_n though_o oâ—_n never_o so_o

all_o benefice_n do_v by_o their_o establishment_n and_o foundation_n oblige_v to_o residence_n and_o that_o the_o contrary_n be_v nothing_o but_o a_o evil_a custom_n introduce_v by_o the_o
