concern_v the_o sacrifice_n of_o the_o roman_a priest_n in_o their_o mass_n the_o which_o depend_v also_o of_o the_o transubstantiation_n and_o have_v his_o foundation_n upon_o the_o same_o for_o if_o they_o do_v confess_v that_o the_o bread_n and_o the_o wine_n do_v remain_v always_o bread_n and_o wine_n in_o the_o same_o cunning_a they_o dare_v not_o affirm_v nor_o say_v that_o they_o do_v

themselves_o to_o do_v daily_o in_o their_o mass_n for_o for_o the_o first_o see_v that_o according_a to_o the_o testimony_n of_o the_o epistle_n to_o the_o hebrew_n sacrifice_n there_o be_v no_o sacrifice_n offer_v for_o the_o remission_n of_o sin_n without_o shed_v of_o blood_n they_o can_v in_o no_o way_n make_v sacrifice_n of_o bread_n and_o of_o wine_n for_o so_o much_o as_o it_o shall_v be_v without_o shed_v of_o blood_n and_o then_o what_o reason_n shall_v they_o have_v to_o offer_v to_o god_n bread_n &_o wine_n for_o the_o redemption_n of_o soul_n demand_v and_o for_o the_o salvation_n of_o man_n and_o of_o what_o virtue_n and_o efficacy_n may_v such_o a_o sacrifice_n be_v and_o therefore_o see_v that_o they_o will_v convert_v the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o supper_n into_o a_o sacrifice_n cunning_a and_o transform_v it_o into_o a_o mass_n they_o must_v in_o deed_n forthwith_o transsubstantiate_a the_o bread_n and_o the_o wine_n into_o the_o body_n and_o into_o the_o blood_n of_o jesus_n christ_n to_o the_o end_n that_o by_o that_o mean_a they_o may_v afterward_o offer_v they_o in_o saerifice_n for_o the_o remission_n of_o sin_n and_o for_o the_o redemption_n of_o soul_n and_o not_o only_o for_o the_o live_n but_o also_o for_o the_o dead_a we_o may_v not_o then_o great_o marvel_v if_o that_o they_o do_v fight_v strong_o and_o assure_o to_o maintain_v their_o transubstantiation_n combat_n without_o the_o which_o they_o be_v never_o able_a to_o maintain_v their_o sacrifice_n without_o the_o which_o also_o their_o purgatory_n will_v yield_v they_o a_o very_a
