But there is a special examination before the Sacrament, because it is the bread which is received to salvation, or damnation; because 1it is the feast, to which, whosoever cometh without his wedding garment, shall be cast 2into utter darkness, because it is a seal which sealeth a curse or a blessing. Therefore here thou shalt have both the daily oppositions, and the sacramental oppositions.
