Cyprian, on 1Cor 6:19

Cyprian · c. A.D. 200–258
1Cor 6:19 · Douay-Rheims
“Or know you not, that your members are the temple of the Holy Ghost, who is in you, whom you have from God; and you are not your own?”
On this verse:
“That he who has attained to trust, having put off the former man, ought to regard only celestial and spiritual things, and to give no heed to the world which he has already renounced... Of this same thing in Matthew: "The foxes have holes, and the birds of the heaven have nests; but the Son of man hath not where He may lay His head." Also in the same place: "Whoso forsaketh not all that he hath, cannot be my disciple." Of this same thing in the first to the Corinthians: "Ye are not your own, for ye are bought with a great price. Glorify and bear God in your body."”
