CXXXI.

_Ad hospites coenae miraculosae quinque panum._ Joan. vi. 9-13.

Vescere pane tuo, sed et, hospes, vescere Christo;

Et panis pani scilicet ille tuo.

Tunc pane hoc Christi recte satur, hospes, abibis,

Panem ipsum Christum si magis esurias.[73]

_To the guests at the miraculous supper of the five loaves._

Feed on thy bread, on Christ too feed, O guest;

With Bread on bread forsooth thou shalt be blest.

Then shalt thou go, with Christ's bread satisfied,

If hungering for the living Bread beside. R. WI.
