Annotatio IV §.VI open: Second century — Ignatius, Justin, Irenaeus on the true Eucharistic sentence
§.VI: in the SECOND Christian age after the Apostolic, the leading martyrs openly professed the true Eucharistic sentence from Christ and the Apostles.
Ignatius (start) turns the mind to the chief part held by faith alone; Justin (middle) to the lesser part not to be turned into the chief; Irenaeus (end) to both — presence, participation, and their mode.

§. VI. Itaque SECULO Apostolicum proximè excipiente, i. e. Christianæ æræ SECUNDO, dictam de Eucharistia sententiam veram à Christo & Apostolis sibi traditam, apertè satis professi sunt Martyres Christi præstantissimi, IGNATIUS Antiochenus, Seculi hujus initiô; JUSTINUS MARTYR medio, nec non IRENÆUS, sub finem ejusdem celebres, ita verò veritatem Eucharisticam professi, ut primus ad præcipuam Eucharistiæ partem, fide sola tenendam; secundus, ne pars hæc adesse sola crederetur, ad minus principalem, in præcipuam neutiquam transmutandam; Tertius denique, ad utramque, nec non ad utriusq; cùm præsentiam ac participationem, tùm præsentiæ & participationis modum, & suæ, & nostrum omnium, Mentis oculos conversos voluerit.
