Annotatio III §.V: Bellarmine — from Nicaea II Greeks often: Eucharist not figure but body; mode unknown ~200 years
Bellarmine: from Nicaea II (not sooner) Greek Fathers often — not always — warned the Eucharist is not a figure but Christ’s body (Tom. 3 de Eucharist. P. 579 Ingolstadt); they did not expressly inculcate it.
For ~200 years they still left the mode wholly unknown, in the middle.
Latin
Ab eo tempore, puta à tempore habiti Concilii Niceni secundi, non certe citius (sunt verba Bellarmini) GRÆCI PATRES SÆPE, (non tamen semper) MONUERUNT, (non verò expressè inculcarunt) EUCHARISTIAM NON ESSE FIGURAM, SED CORPUS CHRISTI, Tom. 3. de Eucharist. p. m. 579. Ingolstad. edit. Modum interim, quô Eucharistia corpus Christi esset, per 200. circiter annos, in totum adhuc ignorabant inque medio relinquebant.
