for_o it_o where_o we_o shall_v see_v he_o immediate_o cast_v himself_o and_o be_v nonsuit_v at_o the_o very_a beginning_n of_o his_o trial._n he_o tell_v we_o that_o the_o delivery_n of_o a_o deed_n

not_o by_o the_o common_a law_n but_o so_o necessary_a be_v possession_n deem_v for_o the_o through_o conveyance_n of_o a_o estate_n that_o in_o case_n of_o absence_n from_o the_o land_n or_o the_o like_a the_o lawmaker_n have_v by_o a_o particular_a statute_n necessary_o provide_v to_o give_v possession_n otherwise_o for_o it_o be_v not_o necessary_a to_o the_o make_v a_o man_n in_o

shall_v they_o therefore_o be_v hinder_v from_o take_v immediate_a possession_n of_o what_o be_v thus_o make_v over_o to_o they_o no_o this_o be_v too_o great_a a_o sacrilege_n against_o god_n and_o violation_n of_o the_o property_n of_o a_o christian_n they_o shall_v receive_v christ_n body_n and_o blood_n that_o they_o may_v dwell_v in_o he_o and_o he_o in_o they_o they_o shall_v partake_v of_o the_o fruit_n of_o the_o sacrament_n as_o of_o a_o goodly_a heritage_n of_o their_o own_o since_o christ_n have_v give_v they_o a_o just_a right_n and_o title_n to_o it_o and_o shall_v cherish_v their_o soul_n and_o body_n therewith_o to_o immortality_n those_o who_o be_v content_v only_o to_o hear_v of_o or_o to_o see_v this_o goodly_a land_n and_o not_o to_o go_v and_o possess_v it_o those_o who_o will_v leave_v their_o father_n house_n the_o catholic_a church_n and_o go_v abroad_o to_o feed_v upon_o husk_n and_o imaginary_a virtue_n be_v the_o object_n of_o our_o pity_n so_o indeed_o there_o be_v a_o sort_n of_o a_o fiction_n in_o law_n in_o the_o author_n way_n of_o conveyance_n of_o a_o tenant_n by_o deed_n or_o lease_n of_o possession_n who_o notwithstanding_o have_v nothing_o to_o do_v to_o enter_v upon_o the_o estate_n or_o enjoy_v it_o if_o the_o author_n be_v content_v with_o such_o a_o title_n only_o in_o the_o sacrament_n i_o be_o sorry_a for_o he_o and_o thus_o the_o similitude_n be_v reasonable_o apply_v as_o for_o our_o adversary_n way_n who_o say_v that_o as_o the_o delivery_n of_o a_o deed_n or_o write_v under_o hand_n and_o seal_n be_v call_v a_o

be_v no_o example_n to_o his_o common_a rule_n we_o may_v reasonable_o conclude_v that_o if_o the_o sacrament_n of_o baptism_n have_v be_v so_o very_a like_o this_o of_o the_o eucharist_n as_o they_o
