   • 1698, Luis Vincencio Mamiani, Catecismo da doutrina christãa na lingua braſilica da nação kiriri, unnumbered page:

     Nó dadí dó ſinhúté / Tacrí nó ſamŷsã / Miapé […]

     Sitting at the table he took the bread in his hand […]

     (literally, “Sitting [himself] at the place of chewing, the bread was taken by his hand […] ”)

   • 1698, Luis Vincencio Mamiani, Catecismo da doutrina christãa na lingua braſilica da nação kiriri, page 120:

     No ſiperetó ſimé JESU Chriſto no Waré duniorí Miſſa mo becúbecú boho, mo ſicrúcruté yerú boho: doró iwakié miapé mo becúbecú, iwakié yerú mo ſicrúcruté nodehẽ: bihé no JESU Chriſto dicrorí mo ibenheté becúbecú, mo ibenheté yerú nodehẽ.

     When the priest who celebrates the Mass pronounces the word of Jesus Christ over the host or over the chalice of wine, at that moment there is no bread in the host, and there is no wine in the chalice, because only Jesus Christ is what is inside the image of the host and inside the image of the wine.

   • 1698, Luis Vincencio Mamiani, Catecismo da doutrina christãa na lingua braſilica da nação kiriri, page 121:

     Bihé ibenheté becúbecú bohó yerú bohó dinetçorí cuná, wakiecrí miapé nerú, yerú nodehẽ; Bihé ibuyẽwohó idzã JESU Chriſto do Tupã idzã idehó iprí, ſanhí nodehẽ dicrorí idiómó.

     Only the appearance of the host or of the wine is what we see, but there is no bread and wine. Only the true body of Jesus Christ, true God, together with his blood and his soul is what is inside it.
