not_o seem_v to_o lie_v scatter_v and_o divide_v we_o will_v comprehend_v into_o four_o principal_a point_n whereof_o the_o first_o be_v that_o the_o precept_n of_o love_a god_n with_o all_o the_o

endue_v any_o man_n with_o so_o much_o grace_n and_o strength_n as_o he_o may_v be_v able_a to_o fulfil_v the_o commandment_n for_o see_v he_o grant_v the_o same_o unto_o the_o saint_n in_o the_o

that_o he_o will_v do_v it_o so_o as_o we_o be_v to_o talk_v and_o determine_v of_o this_o matter_n according_a to_o common_a order_n and_o reason_n the_o three_o be_v that_o they_o which_o be_v bear_v anew_o may_v be_v affirm_v to_o fulfil_v after_o some_o sort_n that_o commandment_n in_o the_o four_o be_v set_v out_o the_o way_n to_o interpret_v the_o promise_n which_o we_o read_v to_o be_v sometime_o make_v concern_v this_o matter_n in_o the_o five_o and_o last_o be_v declare_v that_o the_o first_o motion_n which_o provoke_v a_o man_n to_o offend_v be_v sin_n whether_o we_o ought_v by_o

to_o obey_v god_n and_o by_o a_o good_a conscience_n to_o be_v join_v to_o he_o in_o live_v uprightlie_o according_a to_o his_o commandment_n wherefore_o admit_v we_o shall_v obtain_v no_o other_o

and_o nature_n of_o man_n to_o be_v feeble_a and_o slow_a to_o all_o thing_n that_o be_v good_a wholesome_a and_o honest_a therefore_o he_o will_v stir_v up_o the_o same_o by_o promise_v sundry_a

with_o reward_n to_o be_v stir_v up_o to_o drink_v when_o he_o be_v thirsty_a or_o to_o eat_v when_o he_o be_v hungry_a sure_o no_o man_n wherefore_o neither_o shall_v there_o be_v any_o need_n by_o reward_n to_o stir_v up_o man_n unto_o righteousness_n if_o they_o hunger_v and_o thirst_v for_o it_o as_o they_o ought_v to_o do_v a_o mother_n use_v not_o to_o be_v entice_v with_o reward_n to_o give_v suck_v to_o feed_v and_o to_o care_n for_o her_o own_o child_n commandment_n promise_n and_o threaten_n be_v add_v in_o the_o law_n to_o the_o commandment_n that_o it_o perish_v not_o so_o as_o the_o promise_n of_o god_n be_v therefore_o necessary_a unto_o man_n because_o they_o by_o reason_n of_o sin_n have_v wax_v cold_a from_o a_o vehement_a affection_n and_o zeal_n towards_o godly_a and_o holy_a work_n we_o be_v altogether_o dull_a &_o sluggish_a unto_o the_o duty_n of_o godliness_n and_o righteousness_n wherefore_o god_n for_o his_o clemency_n sake_n will_v use_v the_o spur_n of_o promise_n which_o appear_v most_o manifest_o in_o the_o law_n where_o almost_o for_o every_o commandment_n be_v add_v both_o thretening_n and_o also_o promise_n see_v then_o holy_a man_n have_v

body_n be_v feed_v nourish_v consist_v and_o increase_v by_o the_o eucharist_n and_o this_o say_n be_v so_o true_a as_o we_o may_v understand_v that_o by_o this_o sacrament_n there_o come_v unto_o we_o two_o kind_n of_o nourishment_n one_o be_v natural_a to_o wit_n by_o the_o sign_n bread_n and_o wine_n by_o the_o which_o common_o a_o humane_a body_n be_v sustain_v unto_o which_o kind_n of_o nurtriment_n although_o it_o be_v not_o to_o be_v contemn_v yet_o irenaeus_n and_o other_o of_o the_o father_n do_v not_o attribute_n much_o thereunto_o the_o other_o nourishment_n be_v that_o while_o we_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n we_o embrace_v the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n by_o the_o mind_n and_o faith_n and_o there_o first_o of_o all_o be_v our_o mind_n fill_v with_o the_o spirit_n and_o with_o grace_n secondlie_o our_o body_n be_v renew_v that_o it_o may_v from_o day_n to_o day_n become_v a_o fit_a instrument_n for_o the_o spirit_n and_o so_o make_v more_o capable_a of_o the_o bless_a resurrection_n and_o this_o do_v irenaeus_n plain_o express_v when_o he_o say_v bread_n receive_v from_o the_o earth_n the_o call_n of_o god_n be_v no_o more_o common_a bread_n but_o be_v make_v the_o eucharist_n which_o consist_v of_o two_o thing_n earthly_a and_o heavenly_a even_o as_o our_o body_n receive_v the_o eucharist_n be_v no_o long_o corruptible_a body_n and_o after_o this_o manner_n he_o bring_v out_o of_o the_o eucharist_n a_o reason_n of_o our_o true_a resurrection_n to_o come_v d._n tresham_n whereas_o you_o say_v that_o irenaeus_n do_v name_n bread_n in_o this_o place_n and_o that_o therefore_o his_o meaning_n be_v that_o in_o the_o eucharist_n there_o be_v both_o to_o wit_n as_o well_o bread_n as_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n &_o that_o these_o thing_n be_v of_o great_a force_n to_o confirm_v his_o argument_n against_o the_o valentinian_o you_o have_v not_o satisfy_v i_o for_o look_v in_o what_o sense_n the_o holy_a scripture_n do_v name_n bread_n in_o this_o sacrament_n even_o in_o the_o same_o sense_n do_v irenaeus_n speak_v in_o this_o place_n and_o he_o most_o evident_o say_v that_o the_o very_a body_n of_o christ_n be_v in_o the_o eucharist_n and_o he_o call_v it_o bread_n either_o for_o that_o it_o be_v bread_n or_o else_o for_o that_o it_o retain_v the_o show_n of_o bread_n d._n martyr_n indeed_o i_o grant_v that_o irenaeus_n speak_v of_o bread_n in_o the_o very_a same_o sense_n that_o the_o scripture_n do_v and_o therefore_o be_v it_o in_o such_o wise_a grant_v by_o he_o as_o it_o be_v by_o they_o that_o bread_n do_v here_o remain_v but_o that_o he_o say_v that_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n be_v in_o the_o bread_n after_o such_o a_o manner_n as_o you_o will_v have_v it_o you_o shall_v never_o be_v able_a to_o show_v out_o of_o his_o word_n and_o that_o by_o the_o scripture_n it_o be_v name_v bread_n in_o such_o a_o sense_n as_o you_o appoint_v i_o have_v often_o time_n disproove_v it_o d._n tresham_n chrysostome_n in_o

whereas_o you_o object_n that_o the_o receive_n of_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n by_o faith_n may_v be_v also_o have_v without_o the_o sacrament_n i_o grant_v it_o christ_n for_o we_o may_v both_o
