Example: but in like manner as Jesus Christ our Saviour, having been made flesh by the Word of God, took both flesh and blood for our salvation, so likewise have we been taught that the food which is Eucharistised by the prayer of the Word from Him , and from which our flesh and blood by transmutation are nourished, is the flesh and blood of that Jesus who was made flesh.
