1 But as touching the eucharistic thanksgiving give ye thanks thus.

2 First, as regards the cup:

3 Then as regarding the broken bread:

4 But let no one eat or drink of this eucharistic thanksgiving, but they that have been baptized into the name of the Lord; for concerning this also the Lord hath said: Give not that which is holy to the dogs.
