<strong>The</strong> Communion.<br />
remi±ion <strong>of</strong> ƒynnes. And I loke fo° the reƒurreccion <strong>of</strong> the<br />
deade: and the lyfe <strong>of</strong> the wo°lde to come. Amen.<br />
After the Crede ended, ƒhall folowe the Sermon o° Homely, o° ƒome po°tion<br />
<strong>of</strong> one <strong>of</strong> the Homelyes, as thei ƒhalbe herafter deuided: wherein if the<br />
people bee not exho°ted, to the wo°thy receiuyng <strong>of</strong> the holy Sacrament <strong>of</strong><br />
the bodye & bloude <strong>of</strong> our ƒauio° Ch°i¥: then ƒhal the Curate geue this<br />
exho°tacion, to thoƒe yt be minded to receiue ye ƒame.<br />
Erely beloued in the Lo°d, ye that mynde to<br />
come to the holy Communion <strong>of</strong> the bodye<br />
and bloude <strong>of</strong> our ƒauio° Ch°i¥e, mu¥ conƒid°e<br />
what S. Paule w°iteth to the Co°inthians,<br />
how he exho°teth all perƒones diligently<br />
to trie & examine themƒelues, befo°e they p°eƒume to<br />
eate <strong>of</strong> that b°eade, and d°inke <strong>of</strong> that cup: fo° as the benefite<br />
is great, if with a truly penitent heart, & liuely faith, we<br />
receiue that holy Sacrament; (fo° then we ƒpiritually eate<br />
the fleƒhe <strong>of</strong> Ch°i¥, & d°inke his bloude, then we dwell in<br />
Ch°i¥ & Ch°i¥ in vs, wee bee made one with Ch°i¥, and<br />
Ch°i¥ with vs) ƒo is the daunger great, yf wee receyue the<br />
ƒame vnwo°thely; fo° then wee become gyltie <strong>of</strong> the body<br />
and bloud <strong>of</strong> Ch°i¥ our ƒauio°, we eate and d°inke our owne<br />
damnacion, not conƒidering the Lo°des bodye. We kyndle<br />
Gods w°athe ouer vs, we p°ouoke him to plague vs with<br />
diuerƒe dyƒeaƒes, and ƒondery kyndes <strong>of</strong> death. <strong>The</strong>refo°e if<br />
any here be a blaƒphemer, aduouterer, o° bee in malyce, o°<br />
enuie, o° in any other greuous cryme (excepte he bee truly<br />
ƒo°y therefo°e, and earne¥ly mynded to leaue the ƒame<br />
vices, and do tru¥ him ƒelfe to be reconciled to almightie<br />
God, and in Charitie with all the wo°lde), lette him<br />
bewayle his ƒynnes, and not come to that holy table; le¥<br />
after the taking <strong>of</strong> that mo¥ ble±ed b°eade: the deuyll enter<br />
into him, as he dyd into Judas, to fyll him full <strong>of</strong> all<br />
iniquitie, and b°ynge him to de¥ruccion, bothe <strong>of</strong> body and<br />
ƒoule. Judge therfo°e yourƒelfes (b°eth°en) that ye bee not<br />
iudged <strong>of</strong> the lo°de. Let your mynde be without deƒire to<br />
