"The Sacramental Idiom of Saint Thomas" (part 2)

                                                       "Triumph of St. Thomas Aquinas" by Benozzo Gozzoli

We continue our review of Abbot Vonier's highly instructive text, "A Key to the Doctrine of the Eucharist."


Abbot Vonier again quotes St. Thomas of Aquinas, this time from the Office for the Feast of Corpus Christi, which St. Thomas composed:

"O God, who in this wonderful sacrament has bequeathed to us a memory of your Passion, grant us, we beseech Thee, so to venerate the sacred mysteries of your Body and Blood that we will continually experience the fruit of your Redemption in us."

St. Thomas of Aquinas, pray for us.
