Thesis 4.15

Latin

Per haec uerba precise (Hoc est corpus meum), non expressis uerbis precedentibus, scilicet pridie quam pateretur, non potest consecrari.

Copy-text: Farmer 1998, line 12357

Apparatus (Farmer): 1486 predentibus.scilicet | 1487 precedentibus scilicet

1486 apparatus reads 'predentibus.scilicet'; 1487 reads 'precedentibus scilicet' (farmer1998:12387); the text follows the 1487 reading.

Consecration cannot occur by the precise words 'This is my body' alone, if the preceding words — 'on the day before he suffered' — are left unspoken.

Illustrates what a modern reader might call word-magic in the Eucharist (Farmer's note, farmer1998:12393). Sense checked against farmer1998:12417.
