Calix benedictionis - Offertory for the Most Precious Blood

Day 59 of #100daysofchant

The feast of the Most Precious Blood is on 1st July. This is the Offertory Antiphon:

CALIX benedictiónis, cui benedícimus, nonne communicátio Sánguinis Christi est? et panis, quem frángimus, nonne participátio Córporis Dómini est?

The chalice of benediction which we bless, is it not the communion of the Blood of Christ? And the bread which we break, is it not the partaking of the Body of the Lord?
