to_o signification_n that_o be_v that_o the_o external_a form_n thereof_o be_v there_o for_o by_o reason_n of_o the_o accidence_n only_o the_o bread_n and_o wine_n do_v signify_v thus_o may_v bread_n be_v say_v to_o be_v some_o where_o in_o respect_n of_o it_o accidence_n only_o and_o not_o of_o it_o substance_n though_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n have_v not_o any_o such_o relation_n of_o be_v i_o

bread_n the_o body_n of_o christ_n and_o thus_o much_o of_o these_o two_o reason_n why_o the_o scripture_n and_o the_o father_n do_v sometime_o call_v the_o eucharist_n bread_n or_o wine_n whereunto_o i_o may_v adjoine_v a_o three_o cause_n in_o that_o the_o scripture_n and_o consequent_o the_o father_n do_v often_o call_v thing_n as_o they_o external_o appear_v to_o the_o eye_n so_o the_o

this_o one_o note_n touch_v the_o writing_n of_o the_o father_n which_o be_v that_o some_o of_o the_o father_n though_o most_o seldom_o do_v say_v that_o the_o substance_n of_o the_o external_a symbol_n do_v remain_v after_o consecration_n where_o they_o be_v to_o be_v understand_v that_o they_o speak_v of_o the_o essence_n and_o nature_n of_o the_o accidence_n and_o not_o of_o the_o
