Again, in c. vii., he says more explicitly of
Irenæus, what is equally true of Cyril; “Least of all does
he favour the figurists or memorialists; for his doctrine
runs directly counter to them almost in every line: he asserts
over and over, that Christ’s body and blood are
eaten and drunk in the Eucharist, and our bodies thereby fed;
and not only so, but insured thereby for a happy
resurrection: and the reason he gives is, that our
bodies are thereby made or continued members of Christ’s
body, flesh, and bones.”
