redeem_v man_n kind_n take_v away_o our_o sin_n pacify_v the_o indignation_n of_o his_o father_n and_o cancel_a thobligation_n that_o be_v against_o we_o in_o which_o sacrifice_n make_v unto_o his_o

another_o tribe_n and_o also_o that_o preesthod_n be_v impertite_fw-la and_o unprofitable_a bring_v nothing_o too_o perfection_n but_o our_o savyour_fw-mi christ_n make_v his_o sacrifice_n upon_o the_o cross_n parfect_o absolute_o and_o with_o the_o most_o hygh_a perfection_n that_o can_v be_v somuch_o that_o after_o that_o one_o oblation_n and_o sacrifice_n for_o sin_v make_v by_o he_o but_o once_o only_a neither_o he_o nor_o any_o other_o creature_n shall_v at_o any_o time_n after_o make_v any_o mo_z oblation_n for_o the_o same_o and_o for_o as_o that_o saint_n paul_n say_v he_o be_v call_v a_o eternal_a priest_n of_o the_o order_n of_o melchysedech_n and_o not_o of_o aaron_n this_o faith_n ought_v every_o man_n and_o woman_n undoubted_o to_o believe_v and_o open_o to_o profess_v

our_o faith_n i_o not_o dilygent_o consider_v as_o many_o time_n too_o right_o great_a clerk_n &_o learned_a man_n in_o much_o writing_a in_o like_a mattier_n it_o have_v chance_v to_o say_v too_o far_o the_o infirmite_n and_o weakness_n of_o man_n be_v such_o that_o seldom_o in_o many_o word_n error_n have_v escape_v so_o in_o my_o book_n of_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o the_o mass_n i_o do_v

cross_n too_o his_o father_n for_o our_o sin_n but_o be_v a_o priest_n after_o the_o order_n of_o aaron_n and_o that_o when_o christ_n do_v offer_v his_o own_o body_n too_o his_o father_n after_o thorder_n of_o melchisedech_n 〈◊〉_d his_o 〈◊〉_d it_o may_v not_o be_v understand_v of_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o the_o cross_n but_o of_o the_o sacrifice_n that_o christ_n make_v at_o his_o maundy_n in_o form_n of_o bread_n and_o wine_n to_o the_o which_o in_o deed_n saint_n paul_n doctrine_n be_v contrary_a both_o in_o other_o place_n and_o in_o thepistle_n ad_fw-la hebreos_n very_o

you_o shall_v impute_v that_o good_a audience_n too_o the_o frailty_n of_o man_n nature_n and_o too_o my_o negligent_a mark_v have_v at_o th●●_n time_n rather_o a_o respect_n too_o a_o fantasy_n

that_o preeste_v herein_o be_v equal_a with_o christ_n preeste_n of_o thorder_n of_o melchisedech_n appease_v the_o wrath_n &_o indignation_n of_o the_o father_n of_o heaven_n crucify_a or_o offer_v christ_n to_o the_o same_o effect_n that_o christ_n in_o his_o own_o person_n do_v upon_o the_o cross_n which_o be_v a_o blasphemy_n intolerable_a to_o be_v herd_n of_o christian_a ear_n for_o
