But Cyrillus saith, It is no Bread, it is no Wine, notwithstanding it appear so unto the senses: Chrysostom saith, The substance of Bread is consumed: Emissenus saith, It is turned into the substance of Christs Body: and Damascenus, and Theophylactus, later writers of no great credit, avouch the same.
But Cyrillus saith, It is no Breade, it is no Wine, notwithstandinge it appeare so vnto the senses: Chrysostome saith, The substance of Breade is consumed: Emissenus saith, It is turned into the substance of Christes Bodie: and Damascenus, and Theophylactus, later writers of no greate credite, auouche the same.
It is plain, that both Cyrillus, and all other old learned Fathers labour evermore with all vehemency, and force of words, to sequester, and pull their hearers from the judgement of their senses, to behold that Bread, that giveth life unto the world. And therefore he calleth it Spiritual Bread: and of Christs Blood he saith thus,1 Bibe vinum in cord tuo, Spiritual, scilicet, vinum. Drink that Wine (not with thy Bodily mouth, but) in they heart: I mean that Spiritual Wine. Again he showeth, wherefore the Jews were offended with Christ, and openeth the very cause of the grossness of their erroure.2 Judaei non audientes Verba Christi secundum Spiritum, Scandaliza•i abierunt re•rò, eò quòd existimarent sefe ad humanarū Carnium esum incitari. The Jews, not hearing Christs Words according to the Sprite, were offended, and went from him, for that they thought, they were encouraged to eat Mans Flesh. 3Again he saith, Gustate, & videte, quòd suavis est Dominus. Num hoc Corporeo palato, ut istud dijudicetis, vobis praecipit•? Nequaquā: sed potius certa Fide. Taste, and see, that the Lord is delectable. What, are you commanded to judge this with your Bodily mouth? No, not so: but with undoubted Faith.
