of_o this_o bread_n and_o the_o drink_n of_o this_o wine_n as_o you_o ought_v to_o do_v you_o shall_v spiritual_o eat_v and_o drink_v my_o body_n &_o blood_n that_o be_v the_o merit_n of_o my_o

of_o all_o other_o mean_n can_v be_v spare_v that_o which_o very_a true_a christian_n soul_n first_o and_o principal_o hunger_v after_o that_o the_o want_n whereof_o only_o famish_v and_o starve_v the_o soul_n that_o which_o they_o will_v take_v the_o great_a pain_n and_o toil_n to_o get_v and_o which_o without_o the_o great_a pain_n and_o travail_n can_v be_v get_v that_o which_o they_o will_v

but_o the_o thorn_n also_o wherewith_o he_o be_v crown_v the_o whip_n wherewith_o he_o be_v scourge_v the_o nail_n with_o which_o he_o be_v fasten_v the_o vinegar_n and_o gall_n which_o he_o taste_v

christ_n consider_v with_o all_o these_o be_v that_o spiritual_a bread_n that_o be_v type_v by_o the_o material_a and_o without_o these_o he_o can_v be_v the_o bread_n of_o life_n to_o a_o sinful_a soul_n so_o that_o if_o there_o be_v any_o transubstantiation_n in_o this_o sacrament_n either_o the_o bread_n be_v turn_v into_o all_o these_o or_o all_o these_o into_o the_o bread_n 3_o the_o use_n of_o wine_n be_v well_o know_v it_o do_v not_o only_o as_o water_n quench_v the_o thirst_n but_o also_o exceed_o comfort_v the_o heart_n and_o refresh_v the_o spirit_n see_v then_o it_o be_v the_o pleasure_n of_o our_o saviour_n in_o this_o sacrament_n to_o make_v wine_n the_o type_n of_o his_o blood_n it_o teach_v we_o what_o effect_n christ_n blood_n and_o the_o shed_v thereof_o shall_v have_v in_o the_o soul_n of_o all_o true_a christian_n and_o worthy_a communicant_n their_o spiritual_a thirst_n after_o righteousness_n and_o salvation_n shall_v be_v quench_v in_o the_o midst_n of_o all_o the_o horror_n and_o terror_n of_o death_n and_o hell_n they_o shall_v by_o mean_n thereof_o be_v solace_v and_o comfort_v this_o blood_n stream_v from_o the_o side_n of_o christ_n shall_v in_o the_o midst_n of_o their_o sorrow_n &_o grief_n and_o trouble_n and_o vexation_n be_v as_o a_o cup_n of_o the_o excellent_a wine_n to_o cheer_v they_o &_o revive_v their_o spirit_n and_o to_o inflame_v their_o zeal_n this_o wine_n have_v that_o efficasie_a and_o force_n in_o it_o that_o it_o will_v turn_v all_o the_o bitter_a potion_n that_o god_n child_n use_v to_o drink_v into_o wine_n the_o apostle_n of_o our_o saviour_n when_o they_o be_v drink_v deep_o of_o the_o whip_n this_o wine_n mingle_v with_o that_o bitter_a potion_n turn_v it_o also_o into_o wine_n insomuch_o as_o they_o rejoice_v that_o they_o be_v count_v worthy_a to_o suffer_v that_o which_o they_o do_v for_o christ_n sake_n that_o religion_n therefore_o which_o lock_n from_o the_o people_n the_o wine_n in_o this_o sacrament_n do_v therein_o also_o as_o much_o as_o lies_z in_o it_o keep_v from_o they_o also_o that_o wine_n which_o be_v type_v and_o shadow_v thereby_o even_o the_o precious_a blood_n of_o jesus_n christ_n the_o only_a wine_n that_o can_v refresh_v and_o comfort_v the_o soul_n of_o a_o afflict_a sinner_n which_o be_v enough_o to_o argue_v the_o same_o to_o be_v antichristian_a if_o there_o be_v nothing_o else_o and_o the_o more_o antichristian_a the_o more_o it_o maintain_v that_o the_o wine_n in_o this_o sacrament_n be_v the_o very_a real_a blood_n of_o christ_n what_o be_v this_o but_o to_o teach_v that_o the_o true_a blood_n of_o christ_n belong_v not_o to_o they_o that_o if_o they_o will_v be_v save_v they_o must_v be_v save_v by_o some_o other_o mean_n or_o only_o by_o gaze_v
