998. Vers. 4. Solummodo carnem in anima ejus, sanguinem ejus, non comedetis. 'Caro' significat voluntarium hominis: 'anima' significat vitam novam: 'sanguis' charitatem: 'non comedere' significat non commiscere: quare 'carnem in anima ejus, sanguinem, non comedere,' est non profana sanctis commiscere.
