it_o be_v very_o requisite_a and_o reasonable_a that_o the_o advancement_n and_o progress_n of_o grace_n shall_v by_o the_o same_o comparison_n be_v propose_v by_o a_o nourishment_n in_o the_o second_o sacrament_n as_o than_o jesus_n christ_n have_v in_o baptism_n give_v water_n which_o be_v the_o principal_a of_o the_o generation_n of_o corporal_a thing_n to_o be_v a_o figure_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n which_o be_v the_o principal_a and_o efficient_a cause_n of_o the_o regeneration_n of_o our_o soul_n so_o he_o institute_v the_o sacrament_n of_o his_o bless_a supper_n by_o those_o thing_n from_o whence_o we_o have_v and_o receive_v our_o temporal_a nourishment_n to_o wit_n bread_n and_o wine_n thereby_o to_o represent_v unto_o we_o the_o life_n which_o our_o soul_n receive_v of_o his_o body_n and_o blood_n offer_v on_o the_o cross_n from_o whence_o it_o follow_v that_o the_o word_n of_o eat_v be_v no_o more_o mean_v or_o take_v of_o the_o letter_n in_o this_o sacrament_n then_o that_o of_o birth_n in_o the_o sacrament_n of_o baptism_n and_o that_o he_o who_o think_v or_o pretend_v to_o nourish_v himself_o of_o jesus_n christ_n by_o his_o bodily_a mouth_n commit_v

by_o the_o merit_n of_o christ_n for_o the_o death_n and_o passion_n of_o jesus_n christ_n be_v not_o apply_v or_o give_v but_o to_o those_o who_o be_v one_o and_o the_o same_o body_n with_o he_o

of_o jesus_n christ_n yet_o not_o by_o the_o truth_n or_o reality_n of_o the_o thing_n but_o by_o the_o signification_n of_o the_o mystery_n the_o other_o branch_n or_o point_n which_o result_v hereof_o be_v that_o this_o holy_a supper_n be_v the_o sacrifice_n of_o jesus_n christ_n not_o by_o the_o truth_n of_o the_o thing_n but_o by_o the_o signification_n of_o the_o mystery_n and_o that_o it_o be_v not_o a_o sacrifice_n but_o a_o remembrance_n and_o commemoration_n of_o a_o sacrifice_n as_o indeed_o christ_n offer_v up_o no_o oblation_n to_o god_n but_o break_v the_o bread_n and_o give_v it_o to_o his_o disciple_n from_o whence_o belove_v in_o the_o lord_n you_o plain_o see_v that_o to_o esteem_v and_o hold_v the_o lord_n supper_n to_o be_v a_o real_a sacrifice_n wherein_o
