* push ie al a chapter VII.

The body of Christ is not seen by us in the cacrement of the al- tar with the bodily eve.

erefors, when the enbstance of the bread ceases to trthie body of the Lord,which begins to exist under species or bread by the divine power,is not per~ ed with the bodily eye but by faith and the uwundertae. which eonelucion ig@eGen from passages of Holy Fathers as well as fron ja; h number Augustine stated as quoted fm.

"yt wegne says,"in the svecioe of bread and wine h we seo,hehold invisihile things,that isyve do r to flesh and blood.’

Kkewise the same Augustine stetes in De Conseerationc, Snotton TXI.9 "Oui mandneant":"Thet which is seen",he Says, the broad ond the cup which also the eyes declare; that whieh faith for its instruction demande, pread is the body of christ, end the ewe is the a, ct bhai nmeinss we @ @alled the sacraments, be- @ in these one objest is seen end another is underkewise Gregory states in De consecratione, Distine-~ mh IIe, "Oula"yes follovs:"*{t is a great and dread ",he says,"that one object is seen and another derstood" Likewise 'ilary is also quoted in De ‘ratione, Distinetion TIe, *UD1": "The quantity’,!

“is not to be considered in this mystery,but the BAC. * aR oe ye Salad tly i oe ee a cee fae bn stood,although the species of bread is peakly.

Moreover for thie conclusion gram ng;for that which tenperceived vith the bodily in eny plece, can certainly be known to exist in ame place without expry yeassage. But no one vould ‘without the full authority of the Saviour end of ehurch that the body of Christ is really contained : the species of bread; therefore, it is not seen with the bodily eye. Likewise bodliy vision is i to all those squally disposed;pbut no unbeliever ives ith the bodily eye that the body of snrist 7 here. It is likerice manifest that no one perceives 7 any sensible quality hy eny cense whetcoever, the quality of the host.

Sut it wee stated before that thats nor subjectively in a quantity,nor the subject of a quenta from that quelity vhiah vas the subject that quantity;vhich is known to be false.

ee it is wenifest that all the qualities rome the srorament of the altar are broken and divided, rhen the host is divided, all eliniler qualities Ain with each vert of the host, ior oen “Za ve said one quality is the immediate subject of a cuantity, @ other quality is the mediate subject of 4 ity. And, therefore, any onc is a quantum, because antity mediately ov immediately is subjectively “qualities; thie statement,I say,can not hold; ise,if ane quality gould be the immediate subject quantity ana another the mediate,sthis statement not be true,unless heecauce the suelity,vhioh is e immediate cunieet of the aneantitv,was subjectively that quality whieh ie the mediate atthi eat of the bAity; but this statement if olearly found to be sa,for one ¢orvoresl cuelity is not the subject of other corporeal quality;for aoler is not the eubiect eokor, for then & eolor mold really and truly be ite aie’ bidokewhioh is abcurd. From this argument, tefore,it follows among other statements, that no neroete of any quslity is cvredicated of an abstract another; for it is slear that one duality is not the ject of another auality. This goencluseion is also tablished by another argiacnt;for the destruction tie accident follove aither mediately or limmedistely n the destruction of the enbiest. Tf, therefore, that Lity gould be the subject of another auelity,it ld be necessary thet »vhen the qnality is destroyed which immediately in the evbstanse ac in Ber other qualities vould be destroyed. And so if a. gible quality is the imvediate subjeet of another ceptible by another sonse aud that of another, and gntinuing in order,it voula necessarily obtain lities are removed. Therefore.from all the state~ ts ~reviously mentioned,it ean evidently be 4on- Shepter xxT.

the previous statements it remains to denon- ite that the qualities rewaining in the sserament of: altar after consecration are not subjectively in. mtity just as in a subjcct subtaining them.
