Original text and translations
Latin text
Caro [enim] mea vere est cibus
et sanguis meus vere est potus: (John 6:56)
55 qui manducat meam carnem
et bibit meum sanguinem
vivet in aeternum. (John 6:55 has habet vitam in aeternam)
Hic est panis qui de caelo descendit.
Non sicut manducaverunt patres vestri
manna in deserto et mortui sunt:
Qui manducat hunc panem vivet in aeternum. (John 6:59)
