“Now the priest does not content himself with saying: "This is the chalice of My Blood"; he continues: "which shall be shed for you and for many for the remission of sins." As the first part of the sentence is certainly fulfilled, with no less certainty will the later part be fulfilled. Consequently, the Sacred Body of Christ is verily and indeed shed in the Mass "for you and for many"; that is, for you who are present and for the many who are absent, for those who hear Mass and for those who would gladly do so if they could and therefore desire a memento in it. These are the "many" for whom Christ's Blood is shed in Holy Mass for the remission of sins.”
