Note 696 — Chapter XIX · FISH IN MYTHS, SYMBOLS, DIET, AND MEDICINE

Pitra, op. cit., has several plates bearing on this. Of the coloured, pl. 1 shows an eucharistic table with a fish and bread upon it, and at each side seven baskets full of the latter, while in pl. 3 a fish swims bearing on his head a basket with sacred loaves, both illustrative of the miracle. See also pp. 565-6.
