Irenaeus.
Iesus taking bread of the same condition which is after vs,* 1.1(that is, taking bread of the same nature and kinde as we vse commonly to eate) did confesse it to be his body. And ta∣king likewise the cup which is of the same creature which is af∣ter vs, (that is, which we commonly vse to drinke) confes∣sed it to be his bloud, &c.
Item, lib. 4. Like as bread which is of the earth,* 1.2 receauing the word and calling of God, is now not common bread, but the Eu∣charist, consisting of two things, the one earthly, the other hea∣uenly: so our bodies receauing the sacred Eucharist, be now not corruptible, hauing hope of resurrection, &c.
¶Argument.
Ba- The bread in the Sacrament is so chaunged into the body, as our bodies are changed when they are made vncorruptible by hope.
ro- But our bodies are not made incorruptible by chaun∣ging their substance.
co. Ergo, no more is the bread changed into the substance of the body.
