Hom Malla manhiearthe WV ord ot God mich chae rere-

Faithful mansalt receave the Sacrament rith comfort bythe
Same may that the Bistrop receaveth it with comfort. For he also
beleeveth that many millions are exclnded from the benefit of
Christs Passion, (Wvhether positively or not positi velus is nothine

Thilo is noc che cause et damnation. Duc because 60d
