"It is not man who causes the things lying on the altar to become the Body and Blood of Christ; but that Christ who was crucified for us. The priest stands performing his office, and pronouncing the words; but the power and grace are the power and grace of God. He says, this is my body, and these words effects the change of the things offered."
