shall_v not_o impair_v and_o bring_v in_o doubt_n the_o old_a know_v truth_n revel_v to_o the_o church_n by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n this_o old_a truth_n the_o church_n learn_v of_o christ_n own_o

beleve_v that_o it_o be_v not_o bread_n but_o his_o very_a body_n in_o deed_n and_o also_o where_o as_o it_o appear_v to_o all_o a_o man_n sense_n to_o be_v very_a bread_n which_o sense_n be_v not_o

therefore_o the_o holy_a church_n beleve_v that_o the_o change_n which_o be_v in_o the_o sacrament_n be_v make_v in_o the_o inward_a substance_n of_o the_o bread_n and_o not_o in_o the_o outward_a

even_o so_o in_o this_o sacrament_n the_o outward_a form_n of_o bread_n appear_v to_o man_n sight_n and_o the_o inward_a substance_n of_o christ_n god_n and_o man_n appear_v not_o to_o a_o man_n corporal_a eye_n but_o to_o the_o eye_n of_o his_o soul_n which_o be_v faith_n which_o faith_n be_v stay_v upon_o the_o omnipotent_a power_n of_o god_n for_o he_o that_o can_v create_v all_o thing_n of_o nought_o with_o his_o word_n xviii_o can_v also_o change_v thing_n that_o be_v create_v with_o his_o word_n and_o if_o the_o benediction_n of_o man_n can_v change_v the_o nature_n of_o thing_n as_o appear_v when_o moses_n change_v his_o rod_n into_o a_o serpent_n what_o shall_v we_o say_v of_o the_o consecration_n of_o god_n that_o work_v merueilous_o in_o his_o holy_a sacrament_n if_o the_o word_n of_o helyas_n be_v able_a to_o bring_v fire_n from_o heaven_n shall_v not_o the_o word_n of_o christ_n be_v able_a to_o change_v the_o substance_n of_o bread_n therefore_o upon_o this_o ground_n of_o god_n almighty_a power_n we_o submit_v our_o reason_n to_o our_o faith_n and_o above_o the_o reach_n of_o reason_n we_o believe_v christ_n word_n and_o that_o there_o be_v not_o the_o substance_n of_o bread_n which_o nature_n form_v initian_n but_o the_o substance_n of_o christ_n which_o benediction_n have_v consecrate_v and_o so_o we_o esteem_v this_o sacrament_n otherwise_o than_o a_o infidel_n do_v like_a as_o a_o unlearned_a man_n when_o he_o look_v upon_o a_o book_n seven_o he_o understand_v not_o the_o meaning_n of_o the_o writing_n but_o a_o learned_a man_n will_v
