Wood. I do believe that when I come to receive the Sacrament of the body and blood of Jesus Christ, if it be truly ministered according to Christs institution,1 I coming in faith, as I trust in God I will, whensoever I come to receive it, I believing that Christ was borne for me: & that he suffered death for the remission of my sins, and that I shall be saved by his death and blood shedding, and so receive the Sacrament of bread and wine in that remembrance, that then I do receive whole Christ, God and man, mystically, by faith. This is my belief on the sacrament. Then they spake all at once, saying:2 mystically by faith The fat priest. What a fool art thou? mystically by faith thou canst not tell what mystically is?
