And, as Chrysostom very aptly writeth, we say, that the Body of Christ is the Dead Carcass, and we our selves must be the Eagles: meaning thereby, that we must fly on high, if we will come to the Body of Christ. For this Table, as Chrysostom saith, is a Table of Eagles, and not of Jays. Cyprian also: This Bread, saith he, is the food of the Soul, and not the meat of the Belly.
And, as Chrysostome very aptely writeth, wee saie, that the Body of Christe is the Deade Carkesse, and wee our selues muste be the Egles: meaninge thereby, that wee muste flie on highe, if wee wil come to the Body of Christe. For this Table, as Chrysostome saithe, is a Table of Egles, and not of Iaies. Cyprian also: This Breade, saithe he, is the foode of the Soule, and not the meate of the Belly.
