the_o natural_a body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n and_o be_v it_o enough_o then_o for_o he_o to_o say_v that_o in_o a_o literal_a sense_n they_o must_v signify_v a_o substantial_a change_n of_o the_o

change_v for_o bread_n can_v be_v the_o body_n of_o christ_n if_o it_o be_v not_o bread._n let_v he_o choose_v which_o he_o will_v either_o this_o signify_v this_o bread_n or_o it_o do_v not_o if_o

for_o this_o do_v not_o signify_v the_o bread_n and_o therefore_o this_o be_v my_o body_n can_v signify_v that_o the_o substance_n of_o bread_n be_v transubstantiate_v into_o christ_n body_n i_o

his_o grace_n and_o influence_n since_o it_o be_v demonstrable_a that_o he_o be_v not_o corporal_o present_a we_o must_v in_o this_o sense_n allow_v that_o he_o be_v present_a only_a by_o his_o
