Know, The Lord Jesus in the Night † in which He was betrayed, † took Bread and having given Thanks, † He brake it and He said: † Take, Eat; This is my Body which † is Broken thus for you: † This do, that so of me you may † keep the Remembrance up. † He also in like manner took † the Cup, when He had Supped; † said, This is the New-Testament, † confirmed in my Blood. † This is what I would have you do, † as often as you Drink † of this, that so of me you may † keep the Remembrance up. † As oft now as ye Eat this Bread, † and as ye Drink this Cup, † you the Death of the Lord show forth † until that He do come. †
