A Even after this manner: This,1 that is to say, this bread & this wine, is, to wit, sacramentally for not whatsoever is any thing, is by one only way a thing. Now the question is here, concerning the Sacraments. And we plainly say sacramentally, because the Lord did indeed offer, not bare bread• and wine only, but the true signs of his body and blood, neither only these signs, but besides them also, his body and blood to be enjoyed & possessed of us, even into everlasting life, which life everlasting also we draw from him being communicated unto us.2 My body and my blood, that is, not an imagined body or feigned blood, but that self-same body which was given for us, and that self-same ⟨p. 146⟩blood which was shed for us, of both which we are indeed by faith made partakers, as the signs do truly witness.
