Tertullian,
Ante-Nicene Fathers Vol. III, Apologetic…
(1885)
“ But, after all, what do you less than we; or rather, what do you not do in excess of us? I wonder whether it be a small matter to you [10] to pant for human entrails, because you devour full-grown men alive? Is it, forsooth, only a trifle to lick up human blood, when you draw out [11] the blood which was destined to live? Is it a light thing in your view to feed on an infant, when you consume one wholly before it is come to the birth? [12] ”
