| | CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Gnosticism |
 | | In the Coptic Books (Pistis Sophia, 142; II Jeû, 45-47) we find a long description of some apparently Eucharistic ceremonies carried out by Jesus Himself. |
 | | In these fire and incense, two flasks, and also two cups, one with water, the other with wine, and branches of the vine are used. |
 | | An English translation of the Latin translation of the Coptic, which itself is a translation of the Greek, was made by G.R.S. Mead (London, 1896). |
