It is isle done of any man to speak as the scripture speaketh / and not to take the ⟨p. CXC⟩meaning of the Scripture. God of his mercy give men grace to know the truth. Before Christ in his supper called the bred his body: see how he fore saw this after isle / and fantastical dreams / that men would take his words / contrary onto his mind. In the 6. of Joan. he telleth his disciples / that to eat his body / was to believe in him. That availed not / but straight way said / the words that I speak be spirit and lief: and called them from the letter. Yet again the third time in the same place saith / what if ye see the son of man ascend where as he was first. By these reasons he toke away all bodily eating / and rigour of the letter. like wise after the supper / lest they should dream yet of abodely presence / Because Sacramentally he called the bred his body he repeated again the same words / Joan. 16. It is expedient that I depart. Again / I go to my father. I came from my father into the world. I for sake the world again / and go to my father. Why should not these places hold there authority / and teach us to understand these words / this is my body. seeing that both before / and after the supper / christ told them be plain words / he would not be in the world. and so doth institution of it declare / That this Sacrament was / and should be a memory of his blessed passion / and pains suffered
