“Those who insist that the formal words of the Supper, ‘This is my body; this is my blood,’ are to be taken in what they call the precisely literal sense, we repudiate as 𝘱𝘳𝘦𝘱𝘰𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘰𝘶𝘴 𝘪𝘯𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘱𝘳𝘦𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘴. For we hold it out of controversy that they are to be taken figuratively, the bread and wine receiving the name of that which they signify.” -
John Calvin, Consensus Tigurinus, Art. 22
