this_o these_o few_o reason_n may_v suffice_v 1._o the_o whole_a action_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n be_v do_v in_o remembrance_n of_o christ_n what_o need_n have_v we_o of_o that_o if_o christ_n

to_o eat_v his_o flesh_n be_v to_o believe_v in_o he_o and_o to_o have_v eternal_a life_n 5._o it_o be_v absurd_a to_o think_v that_o christ_n sit_v with_o his_o disciple_n do_v with_o his_o own_o
