holy_a church_n can_v err_v christ_n must_v have_v patience_n &_o transubstantiation_n must_v take_v place_n but_o we_o have_v yet_o a_o much_o clear_a text_n to_o wit_n where_o christ_n himself_o say_v this_o be_v my_o body_n for_o by_o those_o word_n do_v the_o holy_a church_n of_o rome_n plain_o understand_v that_o the_o same_o which_o before_o be_v bread_n be_v now_o no_o more_o bread_n although_o paul_n will_v call_v it_o bread_n a_o thousand_o time_n but_o be_v change_v into_o the_o very_a body_n of_o jesus_n christ_n as_o long_o and_o as_o broad_a as_o it_o be_v hang_v upon_o the_o crosse._n and_o for_o that_o cause_n it_o be_v that_o she_o do_v disallow_v all_o the_o exposition_n and_o interpretation_n which_o basilius_n tertullianus_n theodoretus_n augustinus_n and_o other_o holy_a father_n have_v set_v forth_o upon_o the_o same_o say_v that_o those_o word_n must_v be_v figurative_o and_o sacramental_o understand_v as_o christ_n himself_o have_v plain_o say_v i_o be_o the_o vine_n or_o as_o paul_n say_v the_o stone_n be_v christ_n and_o as_o god_o speak_v to_o abraham_n say_v this_o be_v my_o promise_n cut_v off_o the_o fore_n skin_n etc_n etc_n which_o be_v as_o much_o to_o say_v that_o the_o bread_n shall_v not_o change_v his_o nature_n nor_o the_o very_a body_n of_o christ_n be_v there_o present_a but_o only_o that_o it_o shall_v be_v a_o true_a and_o holy_a token_n a_o sacrament_n a_o warrant_n and_o pledge_v a_o seal_n and_o assurance_n whereby_o we_o be_v assure_v and_o full_o certify_v that_o he_o have_v give_v up_o his_o body_n and_o blood_n for_o our_o salvation_n and_o for_o this_o cause_n do_v they_o call_v it_o a_o figure_n or_o token_n and_o in_o the_o greek_a typus_fw-la and_o antitypa_n that_o be_v to_o say_v special_a token_n but_o i_o do_v tell_v you_o that_o the_o holy_a church_n of_o rome_n will_v not_o allow_v any_o such_o interpretation_n unless_o it_o be_v so_o that_o man_n will_v understand_v they_o as_o

figure_n and_o holy_a token_n only_o before_o it_o be_v consecrate_v which_o be_v to_o say_v it_o shall_v be_v a_o sacrament_n before_o it_o be_v become_v a_o sacrament_n for_o that_o this_o be_v their_o conceit_n and_o meaning_n it_o be_v apparent_a out_o of_o this_o that_o long_o before_o the_o bread_n and_o the_o wine_n be_v consecrate_v or_o make_v a_o holy_a sacrament_n they_o do_v offer_v up_o the_o same_o unto_o god_n for_o remission_n of_o sin_n as_o well_o of_o the_o live_n as_o of_o the_o dead_a mass_n for_o in_o the_o canon_n of_o the_o mass_n yea_o before_o the_o bread_n be_v turn_v into_o flesh_n or_o the_o five_o holy_a word_n of_o consecration_n be_v hear_v the_o priest_n do_v pray_v that_o god_n will_v accept_v that_o offering_n of_o bread_n mass_n and_o through_o that_o deliver_v he_o from_o eternal_a death_n and_o then_o that_o he_o will_v bless_v the_o say_a offering_n of_o bread_n in_o all_o point_n and_o make_v the_o same_o holy_a profitable_a meat_n and_o acceptable_a that_o be_v may_v become_v the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o jesus_n christ._n yea_o and_o before_o he_o have_v yet_o put_v the_o wine_n into_o the_o chalice_n immediate_o after_o the_o offertory_n he_o say_v thus_o offertory_n oh_o holy_a father_n almighty_a and_o everlasting_a god_n take_v and_o receive_v this_o unspotted_a sacrifice_n which_o thine_o unworthy_a servant_n do_v offer_v up_o unto_o thou_o for_o my_o sin_n and_o innumerable_a misdeed_n for_o my_o forgetfulness_n and_o unthankfulness_n yea_o and_o for_o all_o these_o which_o be_v here_o present_a and_o for_o all_o faithful_a christian_n as_o well_o those_o that_o be_v live_v as_o those_o that_o be_v dead_a that_o it_o may_v be_v acceptable_a available_a and_o effectual_a unto_o the_o salvation_n both_o of_o i_o and_o of_o they_o unto_o eternal_a life_n amen_n and_o in_o one_o of_o the_o secret_n which_o be_v common_o read_v upon_o the_o 24._o sunday_n after_o trinity_n sunday_n he_o say_v thus_o oh_o lord_n take_v and_o receive_v merciful_o this_o offering_n effect_n through_o which_o thou_o be_v please_v content_a and_o pacify_v and_o have_v receive_v we_o again_o unto_o salvation_n through_o the_o almightiness_n and_o unspeakablenesse_n of_o thy_o mercy_n etc_n etc_n consider_v now_o here_o do_v our_o dear_a mother_n the_o holy_a church_n ascribe_v unto_o this_o bread_n all_o thing_n which_o may_v be_v attribute_v unto_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n the_o only_o beget_v son_n of_o god_n as_o to_o say_v that_o god_n be_v become_v merciful_a to_o we_o for_o the_o bread_n

they_o do_v make_v a_o god_n of_o it_o after_o the_o five_o word_n be_v speak_v over_o it_o and_o yet_o make_v a_o sacrament_n of_o it_o before_o it_o can_v be_v a_o sacrament_n for_o as_o they_o

christ_n even_o before_o it_o be_v make_v holy_a and_o consecrate_a and_o then_o econtra_fw-la that_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n shall_v be_v no_o more_o either_o a_o sacrament_n or_o token_n but_o even_o the_o very_a body_n of_o christ_n itself_o so_o that_o the_o holy_a father_n must_v needs_o have_v understand_v it_o so_o especial_o when_o they_o say_v that_o this_o sacrament_n be_v but_o a_o token_n a_o seal_n and_o a_o pledge_n special_o before_o it_o be_v become_v a_o sacrament_n for_o after_o that_o it_o be_v once_o a_o sacrament_n than_o not_o

therefore_o do_v she_o not_o make_v any_o account_n of_o the_o exposition_n of_o christ_n jesus_n himself_o who_o after_o he_o have_v say_v of_o the_o bread_n this_o be_v my_o body_n and_o afterward_o of_o the_o chalice_n of_o cup_n this_o be_v the_o new_a testament_n in_o my_o blood_n thereby_o declare_v that_o those_o word_n this_o be_v my_o body_n must_v be_v so_o understand_v as_o if_o he_o

of_o jesus_n christ_n as_o show_v unto_o we_o the_o promise_n of_o god_n make_v in_o the_o break_n of_o the_o body_n and_o shed_v of_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n jesus_n our_o saviour_n as_o be_v

for_o that_o cause_n shall_v paul_n go_v without_o any_o audivit_fw-la when_o he_o come_v in_o with_o his_o interpretation_n and_o say_v that_o the_o bread_n which_o we_o do_v break_v be_v the_o

for_o all_o we_o which_o eat_v of_o one_o bread_n become_v one_o body_n now_o true_o that_o

and_o that_o must_v needs_o be_v the_o holy_a ghost_n which_o come_v with_o thunder_n and_o lightning_n likewise_o upon_o ascension_n day_n they_o pull_v christ_n up_o on_o high_a with_o rope_n

&_o go_v about_o the_o town_n carry_v their_o crucifix_n alongst_o the_o street_n &_o there_o play_v and_o counterfeit_n the_o whole_a passion_n so_o trim_o with_o all_o the_o seven_o sorrow_n of_o

heart_n for_o these_o matter_n fall_v out_o only_o upon_o church_n holy_a day_n or_o solemnity_n when_o the_o catholic_n be_v determine_v to_o be_v merry_a &_o drink_v themselves_o so_o dronk_a that_o they_o tumble_v from_o their_o seat_n as_o you_o shall_v see_v our_o master_n of_o loven_n do_v every_o year_n in_o their_o solemnity_n &_o especial_o at_o the_o seven_o year_n procession_n which_o be_v of_o the_o seven_o sorrow_n of_o our_o lady_n all_o what_o soever_o christ_n have_v do_v must_v be_v set_v abroach_o to_o be_v counterfeit_n and_o after_o the_o same_o manner_n we_o play_v by_o the_o lent._n for_o because_o christ_n do_v fast_o forty_o day_n long_o therefore_o shall_v our_o dear_a mother_n the_o holy_a church_n be_v content_a to_o fill_v her_o belly_n all_o sort_n of_o fish_n only_o not_o once_o touch_v one_o morsel_n of_o flesh_n according_a to_o the_o special_a word_n of_o paul_n who_o say_v eat_v it_o not_o taste_v it_o not_o handle_v it_o not_o 2.21_o and_o so_o likewise_o moses_n do_v fast_o forty_o day_n for_o the_o establish_n of_o the_o law_n of_o god_n which_o he_o present_v unto_o the_o people_n and_o now_o see_v the_o bishop_n &_o prelate_n do_v wear_v horn_n as_o moses_n do_v wherefore_o shall_v they_o not_o as_o well_o fast_a forty_o day_n as_o he_o do_v and_o if_o the_o bishop_n do_v fast_a then_o be_v the_o lay_n people_n much_o more_o bind_v to_o fast_a which_o have_v no_o such_o power_n nor_o mean_v to_o obtain_v dispensation_n bull_n or_o toleration_n of_o our_o holy_a father_n the_o pope_n as_o these_o holy_a prelate_n have_v therefore_o we_o do_v now_o conclude_v without_o exception_n or_o contradiction_n that_o the_o holy_a time_n of_o lent_n be_v as_o firm_o found_v upon_o the_o scripture_n as_o all_o the_o rest_n of_o

church_n of_o rome_n do_v maintain_v her_o lent_n &_o fish_n day_n in_o great_a reputation_n &_o not_o only_o to_o hold_v it_o for_o a_o good_a and_o holy_a work_n in_o itself_o but_o for_o a_o meritorious_a work_n whereby_o we_o may_v merit_v &_o deserve_v heaven_n &_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n appease_v his_o wrath_n and_o do_v &_o make_v sufficient_a satisfaction_n &_o recompense_n for_o all_o our_o sin_n in_o so_o much_o that_o our_o dear_a mother_n do_v esteem_v her_o fast_n yea_o in_o a_o manner_n better_o than_o the_o merit_n of_o the_o bless_a blood_n &_o passion_n of_o jesus_n
