Matthew 26:26 Douay-Rheims

And whilst they were at supper, Jesus took bread, and blessed, and broke: and gave to his disciples, and said: Take ye, and eat. This is my body.

Augustine of Hippo

A.D. 354–430 Patristic

(in Joan. Tr. 27. 11.) Let us not eat Christ’s flesh only in the Sacrament, for that do many wicked men, but let us eat to spiritual participation, that we may abide as members in the Lord’s body, that we may be quickened by His Spirit.
