And that he said he would do: Por semetipsum, by his own self, not by any other bodies Sacrifice. He meant by his own sacrifice on the cross, where he offered him self for the cedemption of mankind, and not the sacrifice of the […] to be offered by an other. For who can offer him, but him self?

And as I my self […] once mistake it. But Paul saith: Per semetipsum purgatio facta, by him self and by none other, Christ made […] and […] for the whole […].
