PHIL. They rehearse the saying of christ in the gos. of John: Verily, verily ⟨image 10⟩I say unto you,¹ except ye eat the flesh of the son of man, & drink his blood, ye have no life in you. But he that eateth my flesh & drinketh my blood, hath eternal life, & I will raise him up at the last day. For my flesh is very meat, and my blood very drink, he that eateth my flesh, & drinketh my blood, he dwelleth in me, and I in him. This putteth us in remembrance when we eat our meat of the breaking of Christs most blessed body and the shedding of his most precious blood & by the remembrance of it, & the believing of the same, our souls at that very present, are no l•sse fed & sustained, than our bodies are with the meat that is brought unto us in these dishes.² And this remembrance of christs death, maketh us to be thankful unto God the father, & to endeavour our selves to live worthy his inestimable kindness, & in all points ⟨image 11⟩to do our diligence y• God may dwell in us by his spirit, & we in him through that faith, which worketh by charity.
