image_n of_o god_n and_o not_o overthrow_v that_o truth_n by_o allegorical_a subtlety_n four_o we_o have_v the_o like_a example_n in_o the_o word_n of_o christ_n at_o his_o last_o supper_n namely_o this_o bread_n be_v my_o body_n which_o epiphanius_n know_v to_o be_v speak_v per_fw-la gratiam_fw-la by_o grace_n whereby_o that_o common_a element_n be_v advance_v supernatural_o and_o mystical_o

and_o by_o body_n the_o true_a body_n of_o christ_n and_o that_o the_o one_o be_v say_v of_o the_o other_o figurative_o indeed_o because_o they_o be_v dispanita_fw-la yet_o true_o as_o our_o saviour_n
