But let it be observed that when Tertullian is trying to prove by the material reality of the eucharistic bread and wine the material reality of our Lord's natural body of flesh 1 De Anima, 17; P. L. 2, 718.
40 THE EUCHARISTIC BODY AND BLOOD and blood, he describes the eucharistic wine as a "memo- rial" of our Lord's natural blood. The natural blood is one thing; the "blo
...od" of the Eucharist is another. In like manner, in his book against Marcion, Tertullian twice calls the eucharistic bread a "figure" of our Lord's body natural.
