Add test coverage and TODO.md log for the full temporal-cycle sweep

Extends tests/hours/matins.test.ts's proof-date table to cover all 28
newly-authored temporal ids end-to-end, including Easter and Pentecost
Sunday. Documents the full sweep in TODO.md, including the
easter-sunday/pentecost-sunday misdiagnosis and correction so the
"1 nocturn in the source" vs. "no content" distinction doesn't get
re-litigated later.

+### Temporal-cycle nocturn-readings sweep — rest of the year done (2026-08)
+
+Extended the post-Pentecost sweep above to the other 26 temporal ids — Advent (`advent-1..4`),
+`christmas-octave-sunday`, post-Epiphany (`post-epiphany-1..6`), Septuagesima through Lent
+(`septuagesima`, `sexagesima`, `quinquagesima`, `lent-1..4`), Passiontide/Holy Week
+(`passion-sunday`, `palm-sunday`), and Eastertide (`easter-octave`, `easter-3..6`,
+`sunday-after-ascension`) — using the reference engine's own per-season Tempora files
+(`Adv1-0.txt`..`Adv4-0.txt`, `Nat1-0.txt`, `Epi1-0a.txt`/`Epi2-0.txt`..`Epi6-0.txt`,
+`Quadp1-0.txt`..`Quadp3-0.txt`, `Quad1-0.txt`..`Quad6-0.txt`, `Pasc0-0.txt`..`Pasc7-0.txt`).
+24 of 26 ids got real, sourced Nocturn 2/3 content on the first pass; the remaining 2 temporal
+ids in this season range (`easter-sunday`, `pentecost-sunday`) were initially misdiagnosed as
+genuine source gaps (see below) — corrected the same day, both now authored too.
+
+- **`post-epiphany-1`'s real source is `Epi1-0a.txt`, not `Epi1-0.txt`**: the reference
+  engine reassigns `Epi1-0.txt` to the later (1893/1921) feast of the Holy Family, which this
+  project doesn't model (see the temporal-cycle survey note on Holy Family as a still-open
+  pre-1955 gap, elsewhere in this file). `Epi1-0b.txt` (a thin `Dominica I post Epiphaniam`
+  wrapper cross-referencing `Epi1-0a` for its own Nocturn 1) confirmed `Epi1-0a.txt` carries the
+  real older "Dominica infra Octavam Epiphaniæ" office underneath. That file also has a real
+  structural gap of its own: its `[Rule]` reads "Initia cum responsory" and it carries no
+  `[Responsory4]`-`[Responsory9]` tags at all — its Nocturn 2/3 responsories come from a
+  continuous weekly "Historia" cycle not transcribed per-Sunday in the static files (same class
+  of gap as the post-Pentecost season's un-sourced Nocturn 2 weeks). `post-epiphany-1.yml`'s
+  two readings are authored without a `responsory` field for this reason, not with an invented
+  one.
+- **`sunday-after-ascension`'s source file (`Pasc6-0.txt`) has no responsories of its own
+  either** (only `[Responsory8]`, proper to a single lesson) — its own `[Rank]`/`[Rule]` say
+  "ex Tempora/Pasc5-4" (Ascension Thursday itself), meaning the whole office, responsories
+  included, is inherited from that day. Resolved by pulling the representative responsories
+  directly from `Pasc5-4.txt` rather than leaving them unauthored.
+- **`easter-sunday` (`Pasc0-0.txt`) and `pentecost-sunday` (`Pasc7-0.txt`) were initially
+  (wrongly) called source-level gaps, then corrected same day.** Both files' own `[Rule]` really
+  does read "1 nocturn" (their whole night office collapses to 3 lessons, straight to Te Deum) —
+  true, and unlike every other Sunday in this sweep. But "1 nocturn instead of 3" is not the same
+  claim as "no Nocturn 2/3 content exists": `Lectio1` in both files opens with a bare Gospel
+  incipit ("Et réliqua") immediately followed by a full patristic homily (Easter: Pope St.
+  Gregory the Great, Homily 21 on the Gospels, on Mark 16:1-7; Pentecost: the same, Homily 30, on
+  John 14:23-31) continuing through Lectio2-3 — real, substantial, translatable content, just
+  compressed into one nocturn rather than split across three the way an ordinary Sunday's 9
+  lessons are. `hours/matins.ts` already supports single-nocturn source content tagged
+  `nocturn: 1` (the Ember days' own nocturn-readings files do exactly this), and this app's own
+  `threeNocturns` rule (every Sunday renders 3 nocturns regardless of the historical rubric for
+  this particular feast) reslots the pool across 3 rendered nocturns anyway — the `nocturn: 1`
+  tag only affects pool-ordering relative to other same-day contributors, not final placement.
+  Authored `easter-sunday.yml`/`pentecost-sunday.yml` the same way as every other Nocturn-3-style
+  entry in this sweep: incipit dropped, Lectio1's homily portion combined with Lectio2-3 into one
+  reading, Responsory1 (the only nocturn-proper responsory transcribed in either source —
+  Responsory3 doesn't exist, the office runs straight to the Te Deum after Responsory2's Gloria
+  repeat).
+- **Cross-reference reuse continues the post-Pentecost pattern**: several Sundays'
+  `[Responsory4]`/`[Responsory7]` tags are themselves cross-references to a different file
+  (e.g. `post-epiphany-3` through `-6` all point back to `post-epiphany-2`'s own Responsory4/7;
+  `easter-6` points back to `easter-5`'s Pasc4-0 responsories) rather than fresh text — resolved
+  and transcribed directly, same as before, not left as unresolved pointers.
+- **The "homily begins inside Lectio7 itself" pattern, not just at Lectio8, held for nearly
+  every Sunday in this pass** (not only the few post-Pentecost weeks that showed it) — every
+  file's Nocturn 3 combines Lectio7's homily portion (dropping only the bare Gospel incipit)
+  with Lectio8-9, using Lectio7's own responsory to represent the combined reading.
+
+Live-verified via `npx tsc --noEmit`, `npm run build`, and `npm test` (806 tests, up from 777 —
+a "rest-of-year temporal nocturn-readings sweep" describe block in `tests/hours/matins.test.ts`
+covering all 28 ids end-to-end, `easter-sunday`/`pentecost-sunday` included; two pre-existing
+tests in the ferial-branch describe block also needed a small filter update, since Advent I's
+own ferial dates now legitimately pool in `advent-1.yml`'s patristic content alongside the
+user's bible-plan readings). No fixture collisions (pure content addition under already-existing
+ids, no calendar changes) except one real interaction the new content surfaced: `2026-02-23`,
+initially picked as a `lent-1` proof date, turned out to actually be the Vigil of St. Matthias
+transferred onto that Sunday and winning outright — swapped for `2031-03-03`, a clean `lent-1`
+date.
+
+**Temporal-cycle nocturn-readings sweep, all 52 ids, is now fully complete — no remaining gaps.**
+The lesson from the easter-sunday/pentecost-sunday misdiagnosis: "the source's own `[Rule]` says
+1 nocturn" is a claim about nocturn *count*, not about whether content exists — always check
+whether `[Lectio1]`-`[Lectio3]` (or whichever lessons exist) carry real prose before calling a
+short nocturn structure a content gap.

+        Our Saviour Himself instructed His disciples concerning the times and seasons of the coming of
+        the Kingdom of God and the end of the world, and He hath given the same teaching to the Church

+        cravings, sit often at leisure in the palace of the mind, dwelling on the wisdom of God. There,

+        The sight of so many signs and so many mighty works should have been a source of wonder, and
+        not a stumbling-block. And yet the unfaithful found these very works a rock of offence, when
+        they afterwards saw Him Who had worked so many miracles dying on the Cross. Hence Paul saith:
+        "We preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumbling-block and unto the Gentiles foolishness."
+        It is indeed folly in the eyes of men to say that the Author of life died for men and thus men
+        put as a stumbling-block to hinder them from coming to Jesus, the very thing that doth oblige
+        them the most unto Him. For the more humbling God hath undergone for man's sake, the more worthy
+        is He that man should worship Him.
+
+
+        And blessed is he, whosoever shall not be offended in Me. Now what is this, but a plain mention
+        of that time, when He afterwards humbled Himself, becoming obedient unto death, even the death
+        of the Cross? It is as if He said: I indeed do wonderful works, but the day will come when I
+        shall not refuse to suffer shame and evil treatment. Take heed then, ye who now worship Me for
+        the works' sake, that when I come to die ye despise Me not for My death's sake.
+
+
+        And, as the disciples of John departed, what did Jesus say unto the multitudes concerning this
+        same John? Let us hear. What went ye out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken with the
+        wind? Here our Lord teacheth not by assertion, but by negation. Now a reed is a thing so made
+        that as soon as the wind bloweth upon it, it bendeth it over toward the opposite quarter. And the
+        fleshly-minded man is like a human reed. As he is praised or blamed so he bendeth himself in the
+        one direction or the other.

+        Dearly beloved brethren, with the care which becometh us as the shepherd of your souls, we urge
+        upon you the rigid observance of this December Fast. The month of December hath come round
+        again, and with it this devout custom of the Church. The fruits of the year, which is drawing
+        to a close, are now all gathered in, and we most meetly offer our abstinence to God as a
+        sacrifice of thanksgiving. And what can be more useful than fasting, that exercise by which we
+        draw nigh to God, make a stand against the devil, and overcome the softer enticements of sin?
+
+
+        Fasting hath ever been the bread of strength. From abstinence proceed pure thoughts, reasonable
+        desires, and healthy counsels. By voluntary mortifications the flesh dieth to lust, and the soul
+        is renewed in might. But since fasting is not the only mean whereby we get health for our souls,
+        let us add to our fasting works of mercy. Let us spend in good deeds what we take from
+        indulgence. Let our fast become the banquet of the poor.
+
+
+        Let us defend the widow and serve the orphan; let us comfort the afflicted and reconcile the
+        estranged; let us take in the wanderer and succour the oppressed; let us clothe the naked and
+        cherish the sick. And may every one of us that shall offer to the God of all goodness this Advent
+        sacrifice of fasting and alms be by Him fitted to receive an eternal reward in His heavenly
+        kingdom! We fast on Wednesday and Friday; and there is likewise a Vigil on Saturday at the Church
+        of St. Peter, that by his good prayers we may the more effectually obtain what we ask for,
+        through our Lord Jesus Christ, Who with the Father and the Holy Ghost, liveth and reigneth, God,
+        world without end. Amen.
+    responsory:
+      la: "R. Ægýpte, noli flere, quia Dominátor tuus véniet tibi, ante cujus conspéctum movebúntur abýssi, * Liberáre pópulum suum de manu poténtiæ.\nV. Ecce véniet Dóminus exercítuum, Deus tuus cum potestáte magna.\nR. Liberáre pópulum suum de manu poténtiæ."

+        veritátem loquens, ejus membrum fíeret, cujus sibi nomen falláciter non usurpáret. Cum ergo non

+        Elías secúndum Dómini advéntum prævéniet, ita Joánnes prævénit primum. Sicut ille præcúrsor
+        ventúrus est Júdicis, ita iste præcúrsor est factus Redemptóris. Joánnes ígitur in spíritu Elías

+      en: >-
+        Dearly beloved brethren, the first thing which striketh us in today's Gospel is the
+        lowly-mindedness of John. He was so great that it was thought he might be the Christ; yet he
+        soberly chose rather to seem only what he really was, than to let the belief of men invest him
+        with a dignity which did not belong to him; for he confessed, and denied not, but confessed, I am
+        not the Christ, at the same time he would not deny what he was in reality; and thus his very
+        truth-speaking made him a member of Him Whose title he would not by falsehood take. In that he
+        arrogated not to himself the name of Christ, he became a member of Christ. While he humbly strove
+        to confess his own weakness, he earned by his simplicity a part in the grandeur of his Master.
+
+
+        In considering this subject we find an apparent contradiction between one of John's statements,
+        and the saying of our Redeemer recorded in another part of the Gospel. When His disciples asked
+        our Lord regarding the coming of Elias, He answered: Elias is come already, and they knew him
+        not, but have done unto him whatsoever they listed. And if ye will receive it, this (that is,
+        John) is Elias. But when John was asked if he was Elias, he answered: I am not. How comes it
+        then, dearly beloved brethren, that we find the Truth Itself asserting what the prophet of the
+        Truth denied? It must evidently be that our Lord meant one thing and John another, when the Lord
+        said, This is, and John, I am not. For how can he be the prophet of truth, if he speak not
+        according to the word of Him Who is the Eternal Truth?
+
+
+        Let us then more minutely examine these words, and we shall find that there is no real
+        contradiction. When the Angel announced to Zacharias the coming birth of John he said: He shall
+        go before Him in the spirit and power of Elias. As the old Elias will come again before the
+        Second Advent of the Lord, so did John, as the new Elias, go before the First Advent, in the
+        spirit and power of Elias. As the old Elias will be the Fore-runner of the Judge, so the new
+        Elias was the Forerunner of the Saviour. John then was Elias in spirit, but not in person; and
+        our Lord asserteth of the spirit what John denieth of the person.
+    responsory:
+      la: "R. Veni, Dómine, et noli tardáre: reláxa facínora plebi tuæ, * Et révoca dispérsos in terram suam.\nV. Excita, Dómine, poténtiam tuam, et veni, ut salvos fácias nos.\nR. Et révoca dispérsos in terram suam."
+      en: "R. O Lord, come and make no tarrying; loosen the bonds of thy people. * And gather again into their own land them that are scattered abroad.\nV. O Lord, stir up thy strength, and come and save us.\nR. And gather again into their own land them that are scattered abroad."

+        Dearly beloved brethren, if we study attentively the history of the creation of our race, we
+        shall find that man was made in the image of God, that his ways also might be an imitation of
+        the ways of his Maker. This is the natural, real, and highest dignity to which we are capable of
+        attaining, that the goodness of the Divine nature should have a reflection in us, as in a glass.
+        As a mean of reaching this dignity, we are daily offered the grace of our Saviour, for as in the
+        first Adam all men are fallen, so in the Second Adam can all men be raised up again.
+
+
+        Our restoration from the consequences of Adam's fall is sheer mercy of God, and nothing else; we
+        should not have loved Him unless He had first loved us, and scattered the darkness of our
+        ignorance by the light of His truth. This the Lord promised by the mouth of Isaiah, where He
+        saith: I will bring the blind by a way that they knew not, and I will lead them in paths that
+        they have not known: I will make darkness light before them, and crooked things straight. These
+        things will I do unto them and not forsake them. And again: I was found of them that sought Me
+        not; I was made manifest unto them that asked not after Me.
+
+
+        And we know from the Apostle John how God fulfilled His promise: We know that the Son of God is
+        come, and hath given us an understanding, that we may know Him That is True, and be in Him That
+        is True, even in His Son. And again: Let us therefore love God, because He first loved us. For
+        His great love then wherewith he hath loved us, God reneweth His likeness in us. And, moreover,
+        in order that He may find in us the reflection of His goodness, He giveth us that whereby to work
+        along with Himself, (Who worketh all in all,) lighting, as it were, candles in our dark minds,
+        and kindling in us the fire of His love, to make us love not Himself only, but likewise, in Him,

+        John said unto the multitude, that came forth to be baptised of him: O generation of vipers, who
+        hath warned you to flee from the wrath to come? The wrath to come in one sense signifieth the
+        great vengeance of the Latter Day: the sinner that repenteth not of his sin now, will have no
+        mean whereby to flee from punishment then. Let us remark that addressing evil children copying
+        the example of evil parents, the Baptist calleth them a generation of vipers in that they were
+        envious at the righteous, and persecuted them; that they repaid evil for evil; that they hunted
+        out ways of harming their neighbours, in all these things following the pattern of carnal
+        parents, the prophet likeneth them to a venomous brood hatched from a venomous stock.
+
+
+        We also have sinned, we have fallen into wicked habits. What must we do, if we would flee from
+        the wrath to come? Let us hear John. Bring forth fruits worthy of repentance. In which words let
+        us remark that the Friend of the Bridegroom demandeth not only fruits of repentance, but fruits
+        worthy of repentance. The former are one thing, and the latter another. In considering then what
+        are fruits worthy of repentance, we may remark that if we had done nothing unlawful we might have
+        had free use of things which are lawful, and been able to sanctify ourselves without abstaining
+        from indulgence in the things of the world.
+
+

+        Dearly beloved brethren, the greatness of God's work, in its breadth and height, passeth the
+        power of man's utterance; and, therefore, when we must needs not keep silence, we find it hard
+        to know what to say. The words of the Prophet: Who shall declare His generation? look not only
+        to the Divine, but also to the human birth of Jesus Christ, the Son of God. Faith believeth, but
+        words cannot explain, how the two natures were joined in one Person, and therein we find that we
+        shall never lack matter of praise in Him, Whose abundance ever outrunneth the power of our
+        expression.
+
+
+        Therefore let us rejoice, that this mystery of mercy is greater than we can ever speak; and let
+        us feel that it is good for us to fail if we try to express the height and depth of redeeming
+        love. He cometh nearest to the knowledge of the truth, who, the farther he advanceth, seeth all
+        the more clearly that he can never overtake that whereafter he searcheth. For he that imagineth
+        therein that he hath ever attained unto the goal, hath not found that which he seeketh, but hath
+        altogether missed.
+
+
+        But lest we should be confounded at the weakness of our mortality, we have help in the words of
+        the Prophets and Evangelists; and they are able so to inflame and teach us that we may see the
+        Birth of the Lord, wherein the Word was made Flesh, not so much as a thing past, as a thing
+        present. The proclamation of the angel to the shepherds who watched their flocks by night,
+        ringeth in our ears also; and for this end are we appointed to rule the Lord's flock, that we may
+        ever keep in our heart the word revealed from heaven, and say unto you, as we do this day:
+        Behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people; for unto you is born
+        this day, in the city of David, a Saviour, Which is Christ the Lord!
+    responsory:

+        We see that God's abounding grace is poured forth on all by the birth of the Lord, and that the
+        gift of prophecy is not denied to the righteous, but to the unbelieving. Simeon prophesieth that
+        our Lord Jesus Christ is set for the fall and rising again of many in Israel, setting forth that
+        the just and the unjust reap different fruits from the coming of the Saviour; so will it be with
+        us; according to our individual works will the True and Just Judge apportion to us punishment or
+        reward.
+
+
+        See, a sword shall pierce through thine own soul also. We have no record or tradition that Mary
+        left this world by suffering a violent death, and the material sword can pierce the body only,
+        and not the soul. Wherefore here we see the wisdom of Mary in that she was not ignorant of the
+        heavenly mysteries. For, the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged
+        sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow,
+        and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart: for all things are naked and opened
+        unto the eyes of the Son of God, from Whom also the secret things of our conscience are not
+        hidden.
+
+
+        There had been a triple prophecy; the prophecy of Simeon had followed the prophecy of the virgin,
+        and the prophecy of the wife; those, namely, of Mary and Elizabeth. And now ought the widow also
+        to prophesy, that no sex nor state might be wanting. And Anna is brought before us with such a
+        title from her widowhood and her life, that we may well believe that she received the grace to
+        announce the Advent of the Redeemer. In our exhortation addressed to widows we have already

+        Dearly beloved brethren, the days which passed between the Resurrection and the Ascension of the
+        Lord, wore not idly by, but in them were established great Sacraments, and great Mysteries were
+        revealed. In them was abolished the terror of that fearful death, and it was shown that not the
+        soul only, but the body also, will not die eternally. In them the breathing of the Lord on His
+        Apostles shed upon them the Holy Ghost, and the Blessed Apostle Peter, being given the keys of
+        the kingdom of heaven, was chosen out of the rest to receive the chief care of the Lord's fold.
+
+
+        It was during those days, that as two of His disciples were walking together, the Lord Himself
+        joined them, and made Himself One of three companions. Then that, to clear away all shadow of
+        doubt from our mind, He rebuked the slowness of such as still feared and trembled. Their hearts
+        enlightened by faith, caught the flame; and, whereas they had afore been cold, they glowed again
+        as the Lord opened to them the Scriptures. In the breaking of bread their eyes were opened, and
+        they knew Him. And, O, how much happier were they with their eyes opened, and gazing upon the
+        glorification of our nature in His Person, than were the first father and mother of our race,
+        upon whom their own transgression had brought shame!
+
+
+        Amid these and other miracles, while the disciples were still troubled with fearful thoughts, the
+        Lord manifested Himself in the midst of them, and said: Peace be unto you. And lest their reason
+        should be deceived by the vain imaginations which lurked in their hearts, (for they thought that
+        What they saw was a spirit, and not Flesh,) He rebuked thoughts so inconsistent with the truth;
+        and pointed out to the eyes of the doubters the marks of crucifixion which still remained in His
+        Hands and His Feet, and bade them handle Him more closely. Those open Wounds made by the nails
+        and spear in His Body remain ever open to close the wounds in unbelievers' hearts: that we may
+        hold, not with doubtful faith, but with most firm and absolute knowledge, that the Manhood Which
+        lay in the grave is the Same Which now sitteth at the right hand of God the Father.

+        Dearly beloved brethren, ye have heard from the Holy Gospel what is at once your instruction, and
+        our danger. Behold, how He Who, not by the varying gifts of nature, but of the very essence of
+        His being, is Good, behold how He saith: I am the Good Shepherd. And then He saith what is the
+        character of His goodness, even of that goodness of His which we must strive to copy: The Good
+        Shepherd giveth His life for the Sheep. As He had foretold, even so did He; as He had commanded,
+        so gave He example. The Good Shepherd gave His life for the sheep, and made His Own Body and His
+        Own Blood to be our Sacramental Food, pasturing upon His Own Flesh the sheep whom He had bought.
+
+
+        He, by despising death, hath shown us how to do the like; He hath set before us the mould wherein
+        it behoveth us to be cast. Our first duty is, freely and tenderly to spend our outward things for
+        His sheep, but lastly, if need be, to serve the same by our death also. From the light offering
+        of the first, we go on to the stern offering of the last, and, if we be ready to give our life for
+        the sheep, why should we scruple to give our substance, seeing how much more is the life than
+        meat?
+
+
+        And some there be which love the things of this world better than they love the sheep; and such
+        as they deserve no longer to be called shepherds. These are they of whom it is written: But he
+        that is an hireling, and not the shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, seeth the wolf coming,
+        and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth. He is not a shepherd but an hireling which feedeth the Lord's
+        sheep, not because he loveth their souls, but because he doth gain earthly wealth thereby. He
+        that taketh a shepherd's place, but seeketh not gain of souls, that same is but an hireling; such
+        an one is ever ready for creature comforts, he loveth his pre-eminence, he groweth sleek upon his
+        income, and he liketh well to see men bow down to him.

+        fine, non solum prænuntiáre, sed étiam demonstráre. Illi quidem qui tunc fuérunt, cum illum
+        vidérent, et cum expavéscerent, et spíritum se vidére créderent, soliditátem córporis tenuérunt.
+        Locútus est enim non solum verbis ad aures eórum, sed étiam spécie ad óculos eórum: parúmque erat
+        se præbére cernéndum, nisi étiam offérret pertractándum atque palpándum.
+
+
+        Ait enim: Quid turbáti estis, et cogitatiónes ascéndunt in cor vestrum? Putavérunt enim se
+        spíritum vidére. Quid turbáti estis, inquit, et cogitatiónes ascéndunt in cor vestrum? Vidéte
+        manus meas, et pedes meos: palpáte, et vidéte: quia spíritus ossa et carnem non habet, sicut me
+        vidétis habére. Contra istam evidéntiam disputábant hómines. Quid enim áliud fácerent hómines,
+        qui ea, quæ sunt hóminum, sápiunt, quam sic disputáre de Deo contra Deum? Ille enim Deus est,
+        isti hómines sunt. Sed Deus novit cogitatiónes hóminum, quóniam vanæ sunt.
+
+
+        In hómine carnáli tota régula intelligéndi est consuetúdo cernéndi. Quod solent vidére, credunt:
+        quod non solent, non credunt. Præter consuetúdinem facit Deus mirácula, quia Deus est. Majóra

+        erant: et tamen ista mirácula non consideratióne comprehénsa sunt, sed assiduitáte viluérunt.
+        Resurréxit Christus: absolúta est res. Corpus erat, caro erat: pepéndit in cruce, emísit ánimam,
+        pósita est caro in sepúlcro. Exhíbuit illam vivam, qui vivébat in illa. Quare mirámur? quare non

+        During these Holy Days in commemoration of the Lord's resurrection, we purpose to preach, so far
+        as he will empower us, the doctrine of the resurrection of the body. For this is the Faith, to
+        wit: the gift of resurrection, which was bestowed upon the flesh of our Lord Jesus Christ, is
+        what is promised to us, for it was first made manifest in him that we might know what to hope for
+        ourselves. What he hath thus promised would come to us at the last, he willed not only to
+        foretell but to demonstrate. Those who were present at that time (even though they were terrified
+        and affrighted, and supposed they had seen a spirit), handled him, and saw that a spirit would
+        not have flesh and bones, such as they saw him to have. Thus he spake to them, not only in words
+        which they could hear, but in a body which they could see; as if it had not been enough to shew
+        himself to their sight, but must needs even offer himself to be touched and handled.
+
+
+        For he said: Why are ye troubled? and why do thoughts arise in your hearts? For they supposed
+        that they had seen a spirit. Therefore he added: Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I
+        myself; handle me and see; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me have. Of course,
+        men have disputed this evidence; for what else could men do, seeing that they are wise only
+        according to man's wisdom, which thus permitteth them to dispute concerning God in spite of what
+        God hath shewn them of himself? He is God, they are men. But God knoweth the thoughts of man,
+        that they are but vain.
+
+
+        To carnal men, the one rule of understanding is his ordinary experience; seeing is believing.
+        What men are accustomed to see, that they credit; what they are not accustomed to see, that they
+        deem incredible. But God often worketh wonders (that is, things contrary to what we are
+        accustomed), because he is God. Every day many men are born that previously had no existence at
+        all; and this is a greater miracle than that a few, who did exist, have been raised from the
+        dead. Yet this wonder is not recognized as such; on the contrary, it is disregarded because man
+        is accustomed to it. Christ rose again from the dead; that is a fact. He had a body: he took
+        flesh, he hung upon the cross, he gave up the ghost; his flesh was laid in the tomb. After that,
+        he shewed his flesh as alive again, he lived again in the flesh. Why wonder, why deny it? God
+        wrought this.

+        This little while is the whole duration of this present world. In the same sense this same
+        Evangelist saith in his Epistle: It is the last time. The words, because I go to the Father,
+        refer to the first clause of the text, namely, A little while and ye shall not see Me, and not to
+        the latter clause, that is, and again a little while, and ye shall see Me. By His going to the
+        Father He was about to bring it to pass that they should see Him no more. And thus it was that He
+        said, not that He was about to die, and that after His death they should not see Him until He
+        rose again, but that He was going to the Father, which He did when, after that He was risen
+        again and had manifested Himself to them for forty days, He ascended up into heaven.
+
+
+        Illis ergo ait: to them which were looking on Him in the Body, He saith: A little while, and ye
+        shall not see Me, a little while, and they who now saw Him clad in a dying nature, should see Him
+        so no more, because He was about to go to the Father. But He saith: And again a little while, and
+        ye shall see Me, and these words are a promise to the Universal Church, just as are those others:
+        Lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Our Lord delayeth not His promised
+        coming. Again a little while, and we shall see Him. And, O, when we shall see Him, then we shall
+        beg, we shall ask no more; for no desire will be unsatisfied, and no riddle unsolved.
+
+
+        This little while seemeth a very long while to us now, while as it is still going on, but when it
+        is over we shall feel indeed how truly it is but a little while. Therefore, may our rejoicing
+        never be like the rejoicing of that world whereof it is said: The world shall rejoice. A woman
+        when she is in travail hath sorrow, and yet, while hitherto our gladness is still coming to the
+        birth through throes of sorrow, let us not be altogether sorrowful, but, as the Apostle hath it:
+        Rejoicing in hope: patient in tribulation. A woman, when she is in travail hath sorrow, because
+        her hour is come: but as soon as she is delivered of the child, she remembereth no more the
+        anguish, for joy that a man is born into the world. And so will it be with us.

+        In speaking of patience, beloved brethren, and in preaching on its benefits and advantages, how
+        can I better begin than by pointing out the fact that now, just for you to listen to me, I see
+        that patience is necessary, as you could not even do this, namely, listen and learn, without
+        patience. For only then is the word of God and way of salvation effectively learned, if one
+        listens with patience to what is being said. Dearly beloved brethren, there are diverse paths of
+        heavenly wisdom, wherein we are invited to walk, if we would reach in the end the reward which
+        God hath prepared to crown hope and faith: but I find no path more useful toward life, nor more
+        sure toward glory than this, that while we humbly strive, in all fear, and in all godliness, to
+        obey the commandments of the Lord, we should set our chiefest guard in an unceasing watch over
+        our patience. The philosophers also say that they take this path, but their patience is as much
+        a sham as their wisdom is a cheat, for who can be wise or patient who knoweth nothing of God's
+        wisdom or God's patience?
+
+
+        But as for us, dearly beloved brethren, we are the real philosophers, whose wisdom lieth not in
+        words but in deeds, and is manifested not in dresses but in the truth. We are they whose
+        knowledge hath the inward consciousness, not the idle boasting, of strength. We are not speakers
+        of high-sounding words, but livers of holy lives, as servants and worshippers of God. Yea, God is
+        Himself the Source, the Fountain, and the Greatness of patience, and it behoveth man to love what
+        is beloved of God. That good thing which he loveth is commended unto him of God's Majesty. If God
+        be our Lord and Father, let us follow after the example of our Lord and Father's patience, since
+        it is the duty of servants to be obedient, and of sons to be home-minded.
+
+
+        By our patience God draweth us toward Himself, and keepeth us His Own. Patience doth soothe
+        anger, bridle the tongue, govern the mind, keep peace, set rules of self-control, break the onset
+        of lust, still the swelling of temper, put out the fire begotten of hatred, make the rich meek,
+        and relieve the need of the poor: patience doth guard in virgins their blessed wholeness; in
+        widows, their careful purity; in such as be married, their single-hearted love one toward the
+        other. Patience doth teach such as be successful to be lowly-minded: such as be unfortunate, to
+        be brave: and all to be gentle when they are wronged and insulted. Patience maketh a man soon to
+        forgive them that trespass against him, and if he have trespassed against any, long and humbly to
+        ask his pardon. Patience doth fight down temptations, bear persecution, and endure unto the end
+        in suffering, and in uplifting of our testimony. Patience is the moat that guardeth the stout
+        foundations of the castle of our faith.

+        The Lord Jesus told His disciples what things they should suffer after that He was gone away
+        from them, and then He said: "These things I said not unto you at the beginning, because I was
+        with you; but now I go My way to Him That sent Me." Let us first see whether it had been that He
+        had not told them before this what they were to suffer in time coming. That He had done so amply
+        before the night of the last Supper, is testified by the three first Evangelists, but it was
+        when that Supper was ended that, according to John, He said: "These things I said not unto you
+        at the beginning, because I was with you."
+
+
+        Are we then to try and loose the knot of this difficulty by asserting that, according to these
+        three Evangelists, it was on the eve of the Passion, albeit before the Supper, that He had said
+        these things unto them, and therefore not at the beginning, when He was with them, but when He
+        was about to leave them, and go His way to the Father? And in this way we might reconcile the
+        truthfulness of what this Evangelist saith here, "These things I said not unto you at the
+        beginning," with the truthfulness of the other three. But this explanation is rendered impossible
+        by the Gospel according to Matthew, who telleth us how that the Lord spake to His Apostles
+        concerning their sufferings to come, not only when He was on the point of eating the Passover
+        with them, but at the very beginning, when the names of the twelve are first given, and they were
+        sent forth to do the work of God.
+
+
+        It would seem then that when He said: "These things I said not unto you at the beginning, because
+        I was with you," He meant by "these things," not the sufferings which they were to bear for His

+        Quóniam Dei mori non póterat Sapiéntia, resúrgere autem non póterat quod mórtuum non erat;
+        assúmitur caro, quæ mori posset: ut dum móritur quod solet, quod mórtuum fúerat, hoc resúrgeret.
+        Neque enim póterat esse, nisi per hóminem, resurréctio: quóniam sicut per hóminem mors, ita et
+        per hóminem resurréctio mortuórum. Ergo resurréxit homo, quóniam homo mórtuus est: resuscitátus
+        homo, sed resúscitans Deus. Tunc secúndum carnem homo, nunc per ómnia Deus. Nunc enim secúndum
+        carnem jam nóvimus Christum, sed carnis grátiam tenémus, ut ipsum primítias quiescéntium, ipsum
+        primogénitum ex mórtuis novérimus.
+

+        exsórtes, dulci quodam sopóre tenéntur, an ómnium mortuórum? Sed sicut in Adam omnes moriúntur,

+        consórtium resurgéndi, cum præcípuum fructum virtútis exspéctet. Omnes quidem resúrgent, sed
+        unusquísque, ut ait Apóstolus, in suo órdine. Commúnis est divínæ fructus cleméntiæ, sed
+        distínctus ordo meritórum.
+
+
+        Advértimus, quam grave sit sacrilégium, resurrectiónem non crédere. Si enim non resurgémus, ergo
+        Christus gratis mórtuus est, ergo Christus non resurréxit. Si enim nobis non resurréxit, útique
+        non resurréxit, qui sibi cur resúrgeret, non habébat. Resurréxit in eo mundus, resurréxit in eo
+        cælum, resurréxit in eo terra. Erit enim cælum novum, et terra nova. Sibi autem non erat

+        Since it was impossible that the Wisdom of God could die, and that which could not die could not
+        rise from the dead, He took to Himself Flesh Which could die, that That Whose nature it was to
+        die might die, and rise again. Neither was it possible that the resurrection of the dead should
+        come otherwise than by man, "for since by man came death, by Man came also the resurrection of
+        the dead." Man He rose since Man He died, the Manhood quickened but the Godhead Quickener. Man
+        then, as touching the Flesh: God, now, over all things. For now we know Christ no longer after
+        the Flesh, but we owe it to the Flesh that we know Him as "become the First-fruits of them that
+        slept" "and the First-begotten of the dead."
+
+
+        The first-fruits are of the same kind and nature as the other fruits, and they are brought as an
+        offering to God, to win His blessing on the in-gathering, an holy offering made on behalf of all,
+        and as it were the homage of restored nature. Christ then is the First-fruits of them that
+        sleep. But is He the First-fruits of only His own loved ones that fall asleep in Him, and lie as
+        it were untouched by death, wrapt in a sweet slumber? Or is He the First-fruits of all the dead?
+        But "as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive." So that, as in Adam were the
+        first-fruits of the death wherein all die, even so in Christ were the first-fruits of the
+        resurrection, wherein all rise again. But let no man be hopeless, neither let it be a grief to
+        the righteous to remember that to rise again will be common to all men, when he looketh for that
+        day wherein the harvest of his life will nobly realise itself. All shall rise again, "but," as
+        saith the Apostle, "every man in his own order." The harvest of God's mercy will be for all, but
+        in reward one man shall differ from another.
+
+
+        I tell you how grievous an outrage against God it is not to believe in the resurrection. If we
+        shall not rise again, then did Christ die in vain, then is Christ not risen. For if He rose at
+        all, He rose for us, and if He had not us to rise for, then He is plainly not risen. In Him the
+        world, in Him the heavens, in Him the earth rose again. For there shall be "a new heaven, and a
+        new earth." For Himself He needed not to rise, Whom the bands of death held not. For although He
+        died as Man, yet was He free in the netherworld itself. Wouldest thou hear how free? "I am as a
+        man that hath no strength, free among the dead." O how free, Who was able to take up his life
+        again at will, even as it is written that He said: "Destroy this Temple, and in three days I will
+        raise it up." O how free, Who descended into hell only to redeem others therefrom.

+        We have now to consider these words of the Lord: "Amen, Amen, I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall
+        ask the Father in My Name, He will give it you." It hath already been said in the earlier part of
+        this discourse of the Lord, for the sake of some who ask the Father in Christ's Name and receive
+        not, that whatsoever is asked, which tendeth not to salvation, is not asked in the Name of the
+        Saviour. By the words "In My Name" we must not understand the vocalization of letters and
+        syllables, but the meaning of what is said, the honest and true meaning.
+
+
+        Therefore, whosoever thinketh of Christ as he ought not to think of the Only Son of God, such an
+        one doth not ask anything in Christ's Name, although he do actually utter letters and syllables
+        to that effect, because by these sounds he meaneth not the Real Christ, but a fancied being who
+        hath no existence except in the speaker's imagination. But on the other hand, whosoever thinketh
+        of Christ as he ought to think, the same asketh in Christ's Name, and receiveth, provided only it
+        be nothing against his own everlasting salvation: but if it is good for him to receive, he
+        receiveth. Some things are not given at once, but kept over till a more fitting season. Such is
+        the true interpretation of the words "He will give it you": namely, that those things will be
+        given which are good for them to ask. All the Saints also are heard when they ask for themselves,
+        but not necessarily when they ask for their friends, or their enemies, or others, even as it is
+        written, not simply "He will give it" but "He will give it you."
+
+
+        Hitherto, saith the Lord, have ye asked nothing in My Name? "Ask, and ye shall receive, that your
+        joy may be full." This their joy, whereof He saith that it shall be full, is to be understood not
+        of fleshly but of spiritual joy: and when that joy is so great that it can be increased no more,
+        then shall it without doubt be full. Whatsoever therefore we ask for the fulfilling of this joy,
+        (that is, if we thereby mean grace, if we ask for that life which is the really blessed one,)
+        that is a thing which it is meet to ask in Christ's Name. If we ask anything else than this, we
+        ask nothing, although we do actually ask something, because all things are nothing in comparison
+        with this.

+        incorruptíbile, et tamen palpábile demonstrávit. Nam et corrúmpi necésse est quod palpátur: et
+        palpári non potest quod non corrúmpitur. Sed miro modo atque inæstimábili Redémptor noster et
+        incorruptíbile post resurrectiónem, et palpábile corpus exhíbuit: ut monstrándo incorruptíbile,
+        invitáret ad prǽmium, et præbéndo palpábile, firmáret ad fidem. Et incorruptíbilem se ergo, et
+        palpábilem demonstrávit: ut profécto esse post resurrectiónem osténderet corpus suum et ejúsdem
+        natúræ, et altérius glóriæ.
+
+
+        Dixit eis: Pax vobis. Sicut misit me Pater, et ego mitto vos: id est, sicut misit me Pater Deus
+        Deum, et ego mitto vos homo hómines. Pater Fílium misit, qui hunc pro redemptióne géneris humáni
+        incarnári constítuit. Quem vidélicet in mundum veníre ad passiónem vóluit: sed tamen amávit
+        Fílium, quem ad passiónem misit. Eléctos vero Apóstolos Dóminus non ad mundi gáudia, sed sicut
+        ipse missus est, ad passiónes in mundum mittit. Quia ergo et Fílius amátur a Patre, et tamen ad
+        passiónem míttitur: ita et discípuli a Dómino amántur, qui tamen ad passiónem mittúntur in mundum.
+        Itaque recte dícitur: Sicut misit me Pater, et ego mitto vos: id est, ea vos caritáte díligo, cum

+      en: >-
+        When we hear this passage of the Gospel read, a question straightway knocketh at the door of our
+        mind. How was it that the Body of the Risen Lord was a real Body, if It was able to pass through
+        closed doors into the assembly of His disciples? But we ought to know that the works of God are
+        no more wonderful when they can be understood by man's reason, and faith has lost her worth when
+        her subject-matter is the subject-matter of human demonstration. Nevertheless, those very works
+        of our Redeemer which are in themselves impossible to be understood, must be thought over in
+        connection with other of His works, that we may be led to believe in things wonderful, by mean of
+        things more wonderful still. That Body of the Lord, Which came into the assembly of the disciples
+        through closed doors, was the Same, Which at Its birth, had become manifest to the eyes of men by
+        passing out of the cloister of the Virgin's womb without breaking the seal thereof. What wonder is
+        it if that Body Which had come out of the Virgin's womb, without opening the matrix, albeit It
+        was then on Its way to die, now that It was risen again from the dead and instinct for ever with
+        undying life, what wonder is it, I say, if that Body passed through closed doors?
+
+
+        But since the beholders doubted of the reality of that Body Which they saw, He showed unto them
+        His Hands and His Side, and allowed them to handle that Same Flesh Which had just passed through
+        the closed doors. In this there were two strange things manifested; yea, things which, according
+        to our understanding, are contrary the one to the other. His Risen Body was incorruptible and yet
+        palpable. For whatever can be touched, must needs be subject to corruption; and whatever is not
+        subject to corruption, cannot be touched. But, in a way altogether wonderful and
+        incomprehensible, our Redeemer after His Resurrection revealed Himself in a Body at once palpable
+        and incorruptible: revealed Himself in an incorruptible Body, that we might learn to seek a like
+        glorification; and in a palpable Body, for the strengthening of our faith. He revealed Himself in
+        a Body at once incorruptible and palpable, that He might thereby make manifest the fact that His
+        Risen Body was unaltered in nature, albeit transfigured in glory.
+
+
+        Then said Jesus to them again: Peace be unto you. As My Father hath sent Me, even so send I you:
+        that is, as My Father, Who is God, hath sent Me, Who am God, even so do I, Who am Man, send you,
+        who are men. The Father sent the Son, Whom He appointed to be made Man for the redemption of man.
+        Him He willed to send into the world to suffer, albeit He Whom He sent to suffer was the Son of
+        His love. The Lord sendeth His chosen Apostles into the world, not to be happy in the world, but,
+        as He had been Himself sent, to suffer. As the Father loveth the Son and yet sendeth Him to
+        suffer, even so doth the Lord love His disciples, albeit He sendeth them into the world, to suffer
+        therein; and therefore it is well said: "As My Father hath sent Me, even so send I you"; that is,
+        while I send you into the wild storm of persecution, I love you all the same, I love you, yea, I
+        love you with a love like that wherewith the Father loveth Me, Who sent Me into the world to bear
+        agony therein.

+        Dearly beloved brethren, ye have heard the deed of the holy women which had followed the Lord;
+        how that they brought sweet spices to His sepulchre, and, now that He was dead, having loved
+        Him while He was yet alive, they followed Him with careful tenderness still. But the deed of
+        these holy women doth point to somewhat which must needs be done in the holy Church. And it
+        behoveth us well to give ear to what they did, that we may afterward consider with ourselves
+        what we must do likewise after their example. We also, who believe in Him That was dead, do
+        come to His sepulchre bearing sweet spices, when we seek the Lord with the savour of good
+        living, and the fragrant report of good works. Those women, when they brought their spices,
+        saw a vision of Angels, and, in sooth, those souls whose godly desires do move them to seek the
+        Lord with the savour of good lives, do see the countrymen of our Fatherland which is above.
+
+
+        It behoveth us to mark what this meaneth, that they saw the Angel sitting on the right side.
+        For what signifieth the left, but this life which now is? or the right, but life
+        everlasting? Whence also it is written in the Song of Songs: His left hand is under my head,
+        and His right hand doth embrace me. Since, therefore, our Redeemer had passed from the
+        corruption of this life which now is, the Angel which told that His undying life was come, sat,
+        as became him, on the right side. They saw him clothed in a white garment, for he was herald of
+        the joy of this our great solemnity, and the glistering whiteness of his raiment told of the
+        brightness of this holy Festival of ours. Of ours, said I? or of his? But if we will speak the
+        truth, we must acknowledge that it is both his and ours. The Again-rising of our Redeemer is a
+        Festival of gladness for us, for us it biddeth know that we shall not die for ever; and for
+        Angels also it is a festival of gladness, for it biddeth them know that we are called to
+        fulfill their number in heaven.
+
+
+        See this glad Festival then, which is both his and ours, the Angel appeared in white raiment.
+        For as the Lord, rising again from the dead, leadeth us unto the mansions above, He repaireth
+        the breaches of the heavenly Fatherland. But what meaneth this, that the Angel said unto the
+        women which came to the sepulchre: Fear not? Is it not as though he had said openly: Let them
+        fear which love not the coming of the heavenly countrymen; let them be afraid who are so laden
+        by fleshly lusts, that they have lost all hope ever to be joined to their company. But as for
+        you, why fear ye, who, when ye see us, see but your fellow countrymen? Hence also Matthew,
+        writing of the guise of the Angel, saith: His countenance was like lightning, and His raiment
+        white as snow. The lightning speaketh of fear and great dread, the snow of the soft brilliancy
+        of rejoicing.

+        Dearly beloved brethren, I am to preach to you the holiest and the greatest of Fasts; and with
+        what words can I more fitly begin than with those words of the Apostle, in whom Christ spake,
+        which have just been read? Behold, now is the acceptable time! Behold, now is the day of
+        salvation! It is true that there are no times which are not rich with God's gifts; His grace doth
+        ever give us an entry unto His mercy; nevertheless, more especially at this time doth it behove
+        that the minds of all men be earnestly stirred up to make progress in things spiritual, and to be
+        nerved by a trust in God stronger than ever; for now the anniversary of that day on which we were
+        redeemed is drawing near, and thereby moving us to work all godliness, to the end that we may be
+        able to celebrate, with clean minds and bodies, that mystery which exceedeth all others, the
+        mystery of the Lord's sufferings.
+
+
+        Mysteries so great demand sustained earnestness, and continuous worship, if we would ever abide
+        in the sight of God, such as it is meet that He should find us on the Feast of the Passover. But
+        since few have the strength to do thus, and the frailty of the body rebelleth against such
+        hardness, while the diverse actions of this life distract us with their cares, it necessarily
+        befalleth that the dust of earth befouleth the hearts even of the godly. To meet this befoulment
+        therefore, and to restore the cleanness of our souls, it is provided by the healthful institution
+        of God, that we should be purged by an exercise of forty days, wherein godly works may redeem the
+        mis-spending of our other time, and purifying fasts rid us of the same.
+
+
+        Therefore, dearly beloved brethren, as we are now about to enter upon these mystic days, the end
+        of whose most holy ordinance is the cleansing both of our souls and bodies, let us take heed that
+        we be obedient unto the command of the Apostle, putting far away from us every defilement of
+        flesh and spirit, ordering the strife which there is between the two substances whereof we are
+        compounded; that the soul, which is ordained under the rule of God, and which it beseemeth under
+        His rule to rule the body, may enjoy the fulness of her lordship; giving no offence to any so
+        that we may give no cause to such as revile us. For if our ways during the Fast agree not with
+        the purity of perfect temperance, the reproaches of the unbelievers will be just, and our sins
+        will arm the tongues of the ungodly to the harming of our religion. The sum of our Fast standeth
+        not only in abstaining from meats; neither is it profitable to deny food to the body, if the mind
+        be not bridled from iniquity.
+    responsory:
+      la: "R. Emendémus in mélius, quæ ignoránter peccávimus: ne súbito præoccupáti die mortis, quærámus spátium pœniténtiæ, et inveníre non possímus: * Atténde, Dómine, et miserére, quia peccávimus tibi.\nV.

+        de carnis peccáto propagáti, in nobis ipsis étiam gérimus, unde certámina tolerámus. Deus vero,
+        qui in útero Vírginis incarnátus, in mundum sine peccáto vénerat, nihil contradictiónis in
+        semetípso tolerábat. Tentári ergo per suggestiónem pótuit: sed ejus mentem peccáti delectátio non

+        Some persons are accustomed to question what Spirit it was of which Jesus was led up into the
+        wilderness, on account of the words a little farther on: Then the devil taketh Him up into the
+        holy city: and again: The devil taketh Him up into an exceeding high mountain. But in truth, and
+        without any searching, we may very fitly take it that we are to believe it was the Holy Ghost Who
+        led Him up into the wilderness; His own Spirit led Him where the evil spirit found Him to tempt
+        Him. When however it is said that He, God and man, was taken up by the devil either into an
+        exceeding high mountain or into the holy city, the mind shrinketh from believing, and the ears of
+        man tingle to hear it. Yet these things we know not to be incredible, when we consider certain
+        other things concerning Him.
+
+
+        In truth, the devil is the head of all the wicked, and every wicked man is a member of this body,
+        of which the devil is the head. Was not Pilate a limb of Satan? Were not the Jews that
+        persecuted, and the soldiers that crucified Christ, likewise limbs of Satan? Is it then strange
+        that He should allow Himself to be led up into a mountain by the head, Who allowed Himself to be
+        crucified by the members? Therefore it is not unworthy of our Redeemer, Who came to be slain,
+        that He was willing to be tempted. It was meet that He should thus overcome our temptations by
+        His own, even as He came to conquer our death by His own.
+
+
+        We ought to know that temptation worketh through three forms. There is, first, the suggestion;
+        then the delectation; lastly, the consent. When we are tempted, it often happeneth that we fall
+        into delectation, and even into consent, because in the sinful flesh of which we are begotten, we
+        carry in ourselves matter to favor the attack. But God, when He took Flesh in the womb of the
+        Virgin, and came into the world without sin, did so without having in Himself anything of this
+        lusting of the flesh against the spirit. It was possible therefore for Him to be tempted in the
+        first stage, namely suggestion; but there was nothing in His Mind in which delectation could fix
+        its teeth. And thus all the temptation which He endured from the devil was without, and none
+        within Him.

+        Jacob quod matre fecit auctóre, ut patrem fállere viderétur, si diligénter et fidéliter
+        attendátur, non est mendácium, sed mystérium. Quæ si mendácia dixérimus, omnes étiam parábolæ ac
+        figúræ significandárum quarumcúmque rerum, quæ non ad proprietátem accipiéndæ sunt, sed in eis
+        áliud ex álio est intelligéndum, dicéntur esse mendácia: quod absit omníno. Nam qui hoc putat,
+        trópicis étiam tam multis locutiónibus ómnibus potest hanc importáre calúmniam; ita ut et hæc
+        ipsa, quæ appellátur metáphora, hoc est, de re própria ad rem non própriam verbi alicújus
+        usurpáta translátio, possit ista ratióne mendácium nuncupári.
+
+
+        Quæ significántur enim, útique ipsa dicúntur: putántur autem mendácia, quóniam non ea quæ vere
+        significántur, dicta intelligúntur; sed ea, quæ falsa sunt, dicta esse credúntur. Hoc ut exémplis
+        fiat plánius, idípsum quod Jacob fecit, atténde. Hædínis certe péllibus membra contéxit. Si causam
+        próximam requirámus, mentítum putábimus: hoc enim fecit, ut putarétur esse qui non erat. Si autem
+        hoc factum ad illud, propter quod significándum revéra factum est, referátur: per hædínas pelles,
+        peccáta; per eum vero, qui eis se opéruit, ille significátus est, qui non sua, sed aliéna peccáta
+        portávit.
+
+
+        Verax ergo significátio nullo modo mendácium recte dici potest: ut autem in facto, ita et in
+        verbo. Nam cum ei pater dixísset: Quis es tu, fili? ille respóndit: Ego sum Esau primogénitus
+        tuus. Hoc si referátur ad duos illos géminos, mendácium vidébitur: si autem ad illud, propter quod
+        significándum ista gesta dictáque conscrípta sunt; ille est hic intelligéndus in córpore suo,
+        quod est ejus Ecclésia, qui de hac re loquens, ait: Cum vidéritis Abraham, et Isaac et Jacob et

+        If we consider faithfully and carefully what it was that Jacob did by the advice of his mother,
+        and wherein he seemeth to have deceived his father, it will appear that it is not a lie, but an
+        allegory. If we denounce this, its mystic sense, as a lie, then must we also give the name of
+        lies to even all parable, and to every figure devised to set forth the nature of anything, which
+        is not to be taken in its literal sense, but in which one thing is to be understood under the
+        name of another. And this be far from us. Whoso should do this, would bring the charge of
+        falsehood against very many figures of speech, including that one called metaphor, in which a
+        word is transferred from that meaning which belongeth to it, to some other, to which would, by
+        such reasoning, be given the name of a lie.
+
+
+        The deep meaning is given; but what is considered is the lie, because men do not understand the
+        way in which that signification, which is a truth, is set forth: but the falsehood is plainly
+        expressed, and believed. That we may understand this more plainly by taking some points in
+        illustration, consider with me what Jacob did. It is certain that he covered his limbs with the
+        skins of goats. If we consider his object in point of fact, we shall find that it was to lie,
+        because he did this that he might be thought to be he who he was not. But if we consider this his
+        deed in that deep typical sense which it undoubtedly possesseth, we find that by the goat-skins
+        are represented sins, and by him who covered himself therewith Him Who bore not His own sins, but
+        the sins of others.
+
+
+        Verax ergo significátio nullo modo mendácium recte dici potest: as it was in the deed, so also
+        was it in the word. For when his father said to Jacob, Who art thou, my son? he answered, I am
+        Esau, thy first-born. If we take this in its sense relative to the two brothers, it will be
+        apparent that it was a lie. If, however, we look at it relatively to that for the sake of which
+        these words and deeds were written down, we shall see that Christ is here signified in His
+        mystic body, the Church. Concerning her, He saith: Ye shall see Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob,
+        and all the Prophets in the kingdom of God, and you yourselves thrust out. And they shall come
+        from the east, and from the west, and from the north, and from the south, and shall sit down in
+        the kingdom of God. And, behold, there are last which shall be first, and there are first which
+        shall be last. Thus did the younger take away the title and inheritance from the elder, and

+        Jesus took Peter, and James, and John his brother, and brought them up into an exceeding high
+        mountain apart, and manifested forth the brightness of His glory. Hitherto, though they
+        understood that there was in Him the Majesty of God, they knew not the power of that Body which
+        veiled the Godhead. And therefore He had individually and markedly promised to some of the
+        disciples that had stood by Him that they should "not taste of death till they had seen the Son
+        of Man coming in His kingdom", that is, in the kingly splendour, which is the right of the
+        Manhood taken into God, and which He willed to make visible to those three men. This it was that
+        they saw, for the unspeakable and unapproachable vision of the Godhead Himself, which will be the
+        everlasting life of the pure in heart, can no man, who is still burdened with a dying body, see
+        and live.
+

+        When the Father saith: "This is My beloved Son, in Whom I am well pleased; hear ye Him", did

+        time. For neither is He That begetteth, before Him That is begotten, neither He That is
+        begotten, after Him That begetteth Him." This is My Son, between Whom and Me, to be God is not a
+        point of difference; to be Almighty, a point of separation; nor to be Eternal, a point of
+        distinction. "This is My Son, not by adoption, but My very Own; not created from, or of another
+        substance, or out of nothing, but begotten of Me: not of another nature, and made like unto Me,
+        but of Mine own Being, born of Me, equal unto Me."
+
+
+        "This is My Son by Whom all things were made, and without Whom was not anything made that was
+        made, Who maketh likewise all things whatsoever I make, and what things soever I do He doeth
+        likewise, inseparably and indifferently." This is My Son Who thought it not robbery, nor hath
+        taken it by violence, to be equal with Me, but, abiding still in the form of My glory, that He
+        may fulfill Our common decree for the restoration of mankind, hath bowed the unchangeable

+        The lives of the saints are the models for the lives of others. This is one of the reasons why
+        we have been given the wise tale of the Scriptures, that while, by reading therein, we come to
+        know Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, and others of the righteous, we may follow them in that path
+        of innocency which is opened to us for our imitation by the record of their godly conversation.
+        Of them I have often treated, and today the story of the holy Joseph cometh before me. In that
+        story there are patterns of many virtues, but chiefly is he glorious on account of his clean
+        living. Right is it then that ye who have learnt in Abraham the devotedness of a faith that
+        nothing could daunt, in Isaac the transparency of an upright soul, in Jacob a wonderful patience
+        of spirit in great travails, should now turn from their worthy deeds, to see the bright example
+        of Joseph's self-control.
+
+
+        The holy Joseph is put before us as a pattern of chastity. Modesty shineth in his manners and in
+        his deeds, and a certain loveliness, which is found with chastity, shineth there also. Hence his
+        parents loved him more than their other children. But this love caused him to be the object of
+        an envy, which we must needs not pass by, and upon this the whole story turneth. Yet, at the same
+        time, we learn how that just man was not swayed by any desire to avenge his own sufferings,
+        neither repaid evil for evil. Whence also David saith: If I have rewarded evil.
+
+
+        In what would Joseph have been worthy to be chosen before others, if he had harmed them which
+        harmed him, and loved them which loved him? For this do many do. But it is a wonder if one do
+        that which the Saviour teacheth, and love his enemy. Well, then, may we wonder at him who did
+        this before the Gospel came; who, being injured, spared; being assailed, forgave; being sold,
+        returned no evil; but repaid insult with favour. We, from the Gospel, have been taught to do all
+        this, and we cannot. Let us also, then, learn how that there was envy even among some of the holy
+        Patriarchs, that we may follow the example of the patience wherewith others of them bore it; and
+        let us feel that they were not men of another and higher nature than ours, but only more
+        heedful; that they were not sinless, but that they repented. But if the passion of envy scorched
+        even some of the holy race, how much more need is there for the sinful to take heed lest it set
+        fire to them?

+        We read in Matthew that the devil, by which this poor creature was possessed, was not only
+        dumb, but also blind; and that, when he was healed by the Lord, he saw as well as spake. Three
+        miracles, therefore, were performed on this one man; the blind saw, the dumb spake, and the
+        possessed was delivered. This mighty work was then indeed wrought carnally, but it is still
+        wrought spiritually in the conversion of believers, when the devil is cast out of them, so that
+        their eyes see the light of faith, and the lips, that before were dumb, are opened that their
+        mouth may show forth the praise of God. But some of them said: He casteth out devils through
+        Beelzebub, the chief of the devils. These some were not of the multitude, but liars among the
+        Pharisees and Scribes, as we are told by the other Evangelist.
+
+
+        While the multitude, who were less instructed, wondered ever at the works of the Lord, the
+        Pharisees and Scribes, on the other hand, denied the facts when they could, and when they were
+        not able, twisted them by an evil interpretation, and asserted that the works of God were the
+        works of an unclean spirit. And others, tempting Him, sought of Him a sign from heaven. They
+        would have had Christ either to call down fire from heaven like Elias, or, like Samuel, to have
+        made thunder roll, and lightning flash, and rain fall at midsummer. And yet, if he had so done,
+        they had been still able to explain away these signs also, as being the natural result of some
+        unusual, though, till that moment, unremarked state of the atmosphere. O thou, who stubbornly
+        deniest that which thine eye seeth, thine hand holdeth, and thy sense perceiveth, what wilt thou
+        say to a sign from heaven? In good sooth, thou wilt say that the magicians in Egypt also wrought
+        diverse signs from heaven.
+
+
+        But He, knowing their thoughts, said unto them: Every kingdom divided against itself is brought
+        to desolation, and an house divided against an house falleth. He answered not their words, but
+        their thoughts; as though He would compel them to believe in the power of Him Who seeth the
+        secrets of the heart. But if every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation, then
+        have not the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost a divided kingdom, since His is a kingdom that,
+        without all contradiction, shall never be brought to desolation by any shock, but abideth
+        unchanged and unchangeable for ever. If Satan also be divided against himself, how shall his
+        kingdom stand? Because ye say that I cast out devils by Beelzebub. In saying this, He sought to
+        draw from their own mouth a confession that they had chosen for themselves to be part of that
+        devil's kingdom, which, if it be divided against itself, cannot stand.

+        We know that it was with and by fasting that Moses went up into the Mount, for he had not dared
+        to go up to that smoking summit, nor to have entered that darkness, except he had been made
+        strong by a Fast. It was with fasting that he received the commandments, written by the finger
+        of God upon tables of stone. Upon the mountain, that Fast made interest with Him Whose law was
+        given unto it; but, below, gluttony was leading the people to the worship of idols and polluting
+        them. It is written: The people sat down to eat and to drink, and rose up to play. That one fit
+        of drunken frenzy, on the part of the people, made void and of none effect all the toil and
+        patience of the forty days, during the which the servant of God had fasted and prayed
+        unceasingly. To the Fast had been given those tables of stone written on with the finger of God;
+        the Feast's work was to break them, by the hand of the most holy prophet, who deemed a nation of
+        drunkards a nation unmeet to receive law from God.
+
+
+        In a moment of time, that people, who had by great wonders been taught to worship God, were, by
+        gluttony, dropped back into the cesspool of Egyptian idolatry. The which things if thou wilt
+        consider, thou shalt see that the tendency of fasting is to God-ward, and that that of feasting
+        is to hell-ward. What was it that degraded Esau, and made him a slave to his brother? Was it not
+        that one dish of pottage for which he sold his birthright? Was it not prayer when joined to
+        fasting that gave Samuel to his mother? What made the mighty Samson invincible? Was it not the
+        fast during the which he was conceived in his mother's womb? The fast it was which made him to be
+        conceived; the fast, which fed him; the fast, which made a man of him, even as the Angel of the
+        Lord commanded his mother, saying: She may not eat of anything that cometh of the vine, neither
+        let her drink wine or strong drink. Fasting is the mother of prophets, the strength and stay of
+        mighty men.
+
+
+        It is fasting which giveth wisdom to lawgivers; fasting which is the trustiest keeper of the
+        soul, and the safest companion for the body. It is fasting which is strength and armour to
+        mighty men; fasting which maketh supple them which run and which wrestle. It is fasting which
+        maketh a man strong to strive against temptation, and which is to godliness as a fenced city;
+        even fasting, whose fellow is soberness, and her work temperance. It is fasting which maketh men
+        to wax valiant in fight; fasting which teacheth to rest in time of peace. Fasting maketh a
+        Nazarite to be holy, and a priest perfect. Without a fast it is unlawful to touch the Sacrifice,
+        not only in that mystic and true worship of God which now is, but also according to the law, in
+        those sacrifices which were offered of old time as figures of the true. It was fasting which
+        opened the eyes of Elias to look upon the visions of God, even as it is written, that when he had
+        fasted forty days and forty nights he was in the mount of God, even Horeb, and he was made able,
+        so far as man may be made able, to see God. Even so also was Moses in that Mount forty days and
+        forty nights, fasting, at what time he again received the Law. Unless the Ninevites had fasted,
+        both man and beast, herd and flock, they had not escaped from the ruin that hung over them. In
+        the wilderness fell some: and who were they? Yea, they were such as lusted after flesh meat.

+        Mirácula, quæ fecit Dóminus noster Jesus Christus, sunt quidem divína ópera, et ad intellegéndum

+        loquántur de Christo: habent enim, si intelligántur, linguam suam. Nam quia ipse Christus Verbum
+        Dei est: étiam factum Verbi, verbum nobis est.

+        The miracles which our Lord Jesus Christ did were the very works of God, and they enlighten the
+        mind of man by mean of things which are seen, that he may know more of God. God is Himself of
+        such a Substance as eye cannot see, and the miracles, by the which He ruleth the whole world
+        continually, and satisfieth the need of everything that He hath made, are by use become so
+        common, that scarce any will vouchsafe to see that there are wonderful and amazing works of God
+        in every grain of seed of grass. According to His mercy He kept some works to be done in their
+        due season, but out of the common course and order of nature, that men might see them and be
+        astonished, not because they are greater, but because they are rarer than those which they
+        lightly esteem, since they see them day by day.
+
+
+        Or it is a greater miracle to govern the whole universe, than to satisfy five thousand men with
+        five loaves of bread; and yet no man marvelleth at it. At the feeding of the five thousand, men
+        marvel, not because it is a greater miracle than the other, but because it is rarer. For Who is
+        He Who now feedeth the whole world, but He Who, from a little grain that is sown, maketh the
+        fulness of the harvest? God worketh in both cases in one and the same manner. He Who of the
+        sowing maketh to come the harvest, is He Who of the five barley loaves in His Hands made bread to
+        feed five thousand men; for Christ's are the Hands which are able to do both the one and the
+        other. He Who multiplieth the grains of corn multiplied the loaves, only not by committing them
+        to the earth whereof He is the Maker.
+
+
+        This miracle, then, is brought to bear upon our bodies, that our souls may thereby be quickened;
+        shown to our eyes, to give food to our understanding; that, through His works which we see, we
+        may marvel at that God Whom we cannot see, and, being roused up to believe, and purified by
+        believing, we may long to see Him, yea, may know by things which are seen Him Who is Unseen. Nor
+        yet sufficeth it for us to see only this meaning in Christ's miracles. Let us ask of the miracles
+        themselves what they have to tell us concerning Christ: for, soothly, they have a tongue of their
+        own, if only we will understand it. For, because Christ is the Word of God, therefore the work of
+        the Word is a Word for us.

+        coming the whole world may well look. Shouts of spiritual exultation are ringing, and suffer not
+        that we should be silent. It is indeed hard to preach often on the same Festival, and that always
+        meetly and rightly, but a Priest is not free, when we celebrate so great and mysterious an
+        out-pouring of God's mercy, to leave his faithful people without the service of a discourse. Nay,
+        that his subject-matter is unspeakable should in itself make him eloquent, since where enough can
+        never be said, there must needs ever be somewhat to say. Let man's weakness, then, fall down
+        before the glory of God, and acknowledge herself ever too feeble to unfold all the works of His
+        mercy. We may jade our emotions, break down in our understanding, and fail in our speech: it is
+        good for us, that even what we truly feel in presence of the Divine Majesty is but little,
+        compared to the vastness of the subject.
+
+
+        For when the Prophet saith: Seek the Lord and be strong; seek His face evermore, let no man
+        thence conclude that he will ever have found all that he seeketh, lest he which hath ceased to
+        come near should cease to be near. But among all the works of God which foil and weary the
+        steadfast gaze of man's wonder, what is there that doth at once so ravish and so exceed the power
+        of our mind's eye as do the sufferings of the Saviour? He it was Who, to loose man from the bands
+        wherewith he had bound himself by the first death-dealing transgression, spared to bring against
+        the rage of the devil the power of the Divine Majesty, and met him with the weakness of our
+        lowly nature. For if our proud and cruel enemy had been able to know the counsel of God's mercy,
+        it had been his task rather to have softened the minds of the Jews into gentleness, than to have
+        inflamed them with unrighteous hatred; and so lost the service of all his slaves, by pursuing for
+        his Debtor One That owed him nothing.
+
+
+        But his own hate dug a pit-fall for him: he brought upon the Son of God that death which is
+        become life to all the sons of men. He shed that innocent Blood, Which hath reconciled the world
+        unto God, and become at once the price of our redemption and the cup of our salvation. The Lord
+        hath received that which according to the purpose of His Own good pleasure He hath chosen. He
+        hath let fall on Him the hands of bloody men, but while they were bent only on their own sin,
+        they were servants ministering to the Redeemer's work. And such was His tenderness even for His
+        murderers that His prayer to His Father from the Cross, as touching them, was, not that He might
+        be avenged upon them, but that they might be forgiven.

+        erróris: hic autem in pullo generalitátem pópuli Gentílis expréssit: et ídeo pullo sedétur ásinæ.

+        Beautiful is the type, when the Lord, about to leave the Jews, and to take up His abode in the
+        hearts of the Gentiles, goeth up into the Temple; a figure of His going to the true Temple
+        wherein He is worshipped, not in the deadness of the letter, but in spirit and in truth, even
+        that Temple of God whereof the foundations are laid, not in buildings of stone, but in faith. He
+        leaveth behind Him such as hate Him, and getteth Him to such as will love Him. And therefore
+        cometh He unto the Mount of Olives that He may plant upon the heights of grace those young
+        olive-branches, whose Mother is the Jerusalem which is above. Upon this mountain standeth He, the
+        Heavenly Husbandman, that all they which be planted in the House of the Lord may be able each one
+        to say: "But I am like a fruitful olive-tree in the House of God."
+
+
+        And perchance that mountain doth signify Christ Himself. For what other is there that beareth
+        such fruit of olives as He doth, not rich with store of loaded branches, but spiritually fruitful
+        with the fulness of the Gentiles? He also it is on Whom we go up, and unto Whom we go up; He is
+        the Door; He is the Way; He is He Which is opened and Which openeth; He is He upon Whom knocketh
+        whosoever entereth in, and to Whom they that have entered in, do worship. A figure also was it
+        that the disciples went into a village, and that there they found an ass tied and a colt with
+        her: neither could they be loosed, save at the command of the Lord. It was the hand of His
+        Apostles which loosed them. He whose work and life are like theirs will have such grace as was
+        theirs. Be thou also such as they, if thou wouldest loose them that are bound.
+
+
+        Now, let us consider who they were, who, being convicted of transgression, were banished from
+        their home in the Garden of Eden into a village, and in this thou wilt see how Life called back
+        again them whom death had cast out. For this reason, we read in Matthew that there were tied
+        both an ass and her colt; thus, as man was banished from Eden in a member of either sex, so is it
+        in animals of both sexes that his re-call is figured. The she-ass is a type of our sinful Mother
+        Eve, and the colt of the multitude of the Gentiles; and it was upon the colt that Christ took His
+        seat. And thus it is well written of the colt, that thereon never yet had man sat, for no man
+        before Christ ever called the Gentiles into the Church: which statement thou hast in Mark also:
+        Whereon never man sat.

+        volunt vívere in Christo, persecutiónem patiéntur: et ídeo numquam deest tribulátio
+        persecutiónis, si numquam desit observántia pietátis. Dóminus enim in exhortatiónibus suis dicit:
+        Qui non áccipit crucem suam, et séquitur me, non est me dignus. Nec dubitáre debémus, hanc vocem

+        Dearly beloved brethren, we know that of all the solemn Feasts which are kept by Christians the
+        Passover is the chief. The ordinances of the whole rest of the year are ordered to the end of
+        preparing us to come to this one in worthy and meet manner. But these days, which now are, are
+        they which ought most especially to stir up a godly mind in us, seeing that they are they which
+        are nearest to that most glorious mystery of God's mercy. In these days the holy Apostles, taught
+        by the Holy Ghost, ordered the chiefest store of Fasting, that we, sharing His Cross with Christ,
+        might, albeit we are what we are, in Him, do some of the same things which He did for our sakes,
+        and so realise the saying of the Apostle: "If we suffer with Him, we shall be also glorified
+        together." He that is partaker of the sufferings of the Lord hath a sure and certain hope of that
+        blessedness which He hath promised unto us.
+
+
+        Dearly beloved brethren, there is no man to whom the state of the age in which he liveth denieth
+        a share in this glory of partaking, first the sufferings, and then the triumph and joy, of
+        Christ. It is not as though this time of peace were barren in occasions of valour. The Apostle
+        giveth us this warning: All that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution. And
+        therefore, as long as godliness is watchful, persecution will never be asleep. The Lord Himself
+        saith in one of His own exhortations: He that taketh not his cross, and followeth after Me, is
+        not worthy of Me. And we must not doubt that these words of Christ apply not only to His
+        immediate disciples, to whom He spoke them, but belong to all the faithful and to the whole
+        Church, who, whosoever be the believers of whom she is for the time composed on earth, heareth in
+        these words the way to be saved which her Lord hath appointed for them.
+
+
+        As then, it is the duty of the whole body of the Church to live godly, so is it her right at all
+        times to be a-bearing of her Master's Cross, and that not only in her general body, but
+        individually in the person of each one of her members, who differ every one from another in the
+        way in which they have to carry it, and the shape in which it is laid upon them. The one common
+        name for all their carrying of the Cross is persecution, but the manner of his wrestling is
+        special to each; and there is often more danger in the ambush than in the pitched field of
+        battle. Blessed Job, who had tried both the goods and the ills of this world, said: Is not the
+        life of man upon earth a warfare? The attack upon the faithful soul arrayeth itself not alone in
+        bodily torture and punishment; yea, when the limbs are sound enough, fearful is the ravage that
+        threateneth us when the lusts of the flesh unman us. But when the flesh lusteth against the
+        spirit, and the spirit against the flesh, the reasonable mind findeth her reinforcement in the
+        helpful Cross of Christ, and though she be lured by foul cravings, yet refuseth to give her
+        consent, for God maketh her pure thoughts to tremble for fear of Him.

+        Dearly beloved brethren, consider the gentleness of God. He came to take away sins, and He
+        saith: Which of you convinceth Me of sin? He Who, through the might of His Godhead, was able to
+        justify sinners, was contented to show by argument that He was not Himself a sinner. But
+        exceeding dread is that which followeth: He that is of God heareth God's words; ye, therefore,
+        hear them not, because ye are not of God. If, then, whosoever is of God heareth God's words, and
+        whosoever is not of Him cannot hear His words, let each one ask himself if he, in the ear of his
+        heart, heareth God's words, and understandeth Whose words they are? The Truth commandeth us to
+        long for a Fatherland in heaven, to bridle the lusts of the flesh, to turn away from the glory of
+        the world, to seek no man's goods, and to give away our own.
+
+
+        Let each of you, therefore, think within himself if this voice of God is heard in the ear of his
+        heart, and if he knoweth already if he is of God. For some there be, whom it pleaseth not to
+        hear the commandments of God even with their bodily ears. And some there be, who receive the
+        same with their bodily ears, but whose heart is far from them. And some also there be, who hear
+        the words of God with joy, so that they are moved thereby even to tears; but when their fit of
+        weeping is past they turn again to iniquity. They hear not the words of God, who despise to do
+        them. Therefore, dearly beloved brethren, call up your own life before your mind's eye, and then
+        ponder with trembling those awful words which the mouth of the Truth spoke: Ye therefore hear
+        them not, because ye are not of God.
+
+
+        But the Truth speaketh these words concerning the reprobate; but the reprobate make manifest the
+        same thing concerning themselves, by their evil works. Thus immediately followeth: Then answered
+        the Jews, and said unto Him: Say we not well that Thou art a Samaritan, and hast a devil? But let
+        us hear what the Lord said to this insult: I have not a devil, but I honour My Father, and ye do
+        dishonour Me. The Lord said: I have not a devil, but He did not say: I am not a Samaritan, for in
+        a sense a Samaritan He was indeed, since the word Samaritan, in the Hebrew tongue, signifieth,
+        being interpreted, a Watcher, and the Lord is that Watcher, of Whom the Psalmist saith that
+        unless He keep the city, other watchman waketh but in vain. He also is that Watchman unto Whom
+        crieth Isaiah: Watchman, what of the night? Watchman, what of the night? Therefore the Lord said:
+        I have not a devil, but not: I am not a Samaritan. Of the two things brought against Him He
+        denied one; but by His silence, admitted the other.

+        Joánnes dicit Deus cáritas est. Qui ergo mente íntegra Deum desíderat, profécto jam habet, quem
+        amat. Neque enim quisquam posset Deum dilígere, si eum quem díligit, non habéret.
+
+
+        Sed ecce, si unusquísque vestrum requirátur an díligat Deum: tota fidúcia et secúra mente
+        respóndet, Díligo. In ipso autem lectiónis exórdio audístis quid Véritas dicit: Si quis díligit
+        me, sermónem meum servábit. Probátio ergo dilectiónis, exhibítio est óperis. Hinc in epístola

+        étenim Deum dilígimus et mandáta ejus custodímus, si nos a nostris voluptátibus coarctámus.
+        Nam qui adhuc per illícita desidéria díffluit, profécto Deum non amat: quia ei in sua voluntáte
+        contradícit.

+        Dearly beloved brethren, our best way will be to run briefly through the words which have been
+        read from the Holy Gospel, and thereafter rest for a while quietly gazing upon the solemn
+        subject of this great Festival. This is the day whereon "suddenly there came a sound from
+        heaven," and the Holy Ghost descended upon the Apostles, and, for fleshly minds, gave them
+        minds wherein the love of God was shed abroad and, while without "there appeared unto them
+        cloven tongues, like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them," within, their hearts were
+        enkindled. While they received the visible presence of God in the form of fire, the flames of
+        His love enwrapped them. The Holy Ghost Himself is love whence it is that John saith "God is
+        love." Whosoever therefore loveth God with all his soul, already hath obtained Him Whom he
+        loveth, for no man is able to love God, if He have not gained Him Whom he loveth.
+
+
+        But, behold, now, if I shall ask any one of you whether he loveth God, he will answer with all
+        boldness and quietness of spirit: "I do love him." But at the very beginning of this day's
+        Lesson from the Gospel, ye have heard what the Truth saith: "If a man love Me, he will keep My
+        word." The test, then, of love, is whether it is showed by works. Hence the same John hath
+        said in his Epistle: "If a man say, I love God, and keepeth not His commandments, He is a
+        liar." Then do we indeed love God, and keep His commandments, if we deny ourselves the
+        gratification of our appetites. Whosoever still wandereth after unlawful desires, such an one
+        plainly loveth not God, for he saith, Nay, to that which God willeth.
+
+
+        "And My Father will love him, and We will come unto him, and make Our abode with him." O my
+        dearly beloved brethren, think what a dignity is that, to have God abiding as a guest in our
+        heart Surely if some rich man or some powerful friend were to come into our house, we would
+        hasten to have our whole house cleaned, lest, perchance, when he came in, he should see aught
+        to displease his eye. So let him that would make his mind an abode for God, cleanse it from
+        all the filth of works of iniquity. Lo, again, what saith the Truth: "We will come unto him,
+        and make Our abode with him." There are some hearts whereunto God cometh, but maketh not His
+        abode therein with a certain pricking they feel His Presence, but in time of temptation they
+        forget that which hath pricked them and so they turn again to work unrighteousness, even as
+        though they had never repented.

+        It is meet and right, dearly beloved brethren, yea, it is our bounden duty and godly service, to
+        rejoice with full hearts upon those days which more especially set forth before us the workings
+        of God's mercy; and to have in honourable memory those things that were done for our salvation.
+        Hereto are we called by the seasons of the year which continually return, and notably by this
+        present, which, after but a short time hath passed since that day whereon the Coeternal Son of
+        God was born of a Virgin, bringeth now the Feast of the Epiphany, hallowed by the Manifestation
+        of the Lord.
+
+
+        In this said Manifestation the good Providence of God hath appointed a strong bulwark to our
+        faith. For now, while in solemn worship we call to mind how the childhood of the Saviour was
+        adored in its first infancy, we receive from the original Scriptures the doctrine that Christ
+        was born with the very nature of man. For this is that which maketh of sinners saints, even to
+        believe that in one and the same our Lord Jesus Christ there is very Godhead and very
+        Manhood - very Godhead, as touching Which, He, being in the form of God, is equal to the Father
+        from everlasting to everlasting - and very Manhood, wherein He, taking upon Him the form of a
+        servant, hath in these latter days been born Man.
+
+
+        For the strengthening of this our faith, which we profess in the face of every false doctrine,
+        the mercy of God hath made it to come to pass that one of those peoples who dwell in the
+        uttermost parts of the East, and excel in the skill of reading the stars, should see the sign of
+        the birth of that Child Who was to reign over all Israel. There appeared to the eyes of wise men
+        a new star of such passing beauty, as wrought in the minds of all that saw it the persuasion that
+        the event, which is announced, was of an importance not to be neglected.

+        We read that when He was twelve years old the Lord began to dispute. The number of His years was
+        the same as the number of the Apostles whom He afterwards sent forth to preach the Faith. He
+        Who, as touching His Manhood, was filled with wisdom and grace from God, was not careless of the
+        parents of the same Manhood, and, after three days, was pleased to be found in the Temple:
+        thereby foreshadowing that, after the three days of His victorious Passion, He That had been
+        reckoned with the dead, would present Himself, living, to our faith, in His heavenly Kingship and
+        Divine Majesty.
+
+
+        How is it that ye sought Me? Christ hath two Generations; one from His Father, another from His
+        Mother. That from His Father is His Eternal Generation as God the Son; that from His Mother is
+        that whereby He came to work for us and minister to us. Those acts, therefore, of His, which are
+        above nature, beyond His age, and different to His custom, proceeded not from the strength of
+        His Manhood, but from the power of His Godhead. On another occasion His Mother moveth Him to
+        work a miracle; here He answereth her, because she treateth that which was of the Godhead, as
+        though it had been of the Manhood. On this occasion it is said that He was twelve years old, but
+        on the other He had already disciples. His mother had seen His wonders on the earlier occasion,
+        and had learnt from her Son to call on the mightier nature for a work of power.
+
+
+        He came to Nazareth, and was subject unto them. No wonder that the great Teacher should practise.
+        And shall we marvel how He Who was subject to His Mother, was about His Father's business? His
+        subjection to His Mother proceeded, not from weakness, but from dutiful affection. Nevertheless,
+        the false serpent lifteth its head from its cruel lair, and spitteth poison from its venomous
+        breast. The heretics say that, as the Son was sent by the Father, therefore the Father is greater
+        than the Son, and, if the Father be greater than the Son, there is that, than which the Son is
+        less; yea, that He Who is sent, hath of necessity, need of some strengthening from outside
+        Himself. He was subject to His Mother? Was He less than she? God forbid!

+        As I listen intently to the reading of St. Paul's Epistles, often two or three times a week,
+        whenever we commemorate the holy martyrs, I am filled with joy, delighting in the sound of that
+        spiritual trumpet. And as I recognize the voice of a friend, I am roused, and enkindled with
+        love so that I almost seem to see him present, and to hear him speaking. But nevertheless I am
+        grieved, and am troubled, that all do not know this great man as he deserves to be known.
+        Indeed, many are so ignorant that they do not even know how many epistles he wrote. But this
+        ignorance is not due to a want of intelligence on their part, but because they will not
+        carefully study the writings of this great man.
+
+
+        For what we know, if we know anything, we do not know it owing to any superlative talent or
+        penetration, but, being strongly drawn towards this great man, we never cease from reading his
+        works. For so it is that those who love any one usually know better than others what he has
+        done, because they take the trouble to learn all about him. The blessed Paul himself shows that
+        this is so, when he says to the Philippians: As it is meet for me to think this for you all: for
+        that I have you in my heart; and in my bands, and in the defence and confirmation of the gospel.
+
+
+        And if you also will diligently attend to the reading, you will have no need of other
+        instruction. Most true are those words of Christ: Seek and you shall find: knock and it shall be
+        opened unto you. For the rest, since many of those who are assembled here are charged with the
+        care of a wife, and with providing for a family, and with the bringing-up of children, and
+        therefore cannot devote themselves wholly to this study; let them at least bestir themselves to
+        receive what others have gathered; showing as much eagerness in listening to what is said about
+        him as in acquiring wealth. For though it is unseemly to demand from you no more than this, yet
+        it is to be wished that you do this at least.

+        Even setting aside any mystical interpretation, the fact that the Lord was pleased to be asked,
+        and to go to a marriage, showeth plainly enough that He is the Author and Blesser of marriage.
+        There were yet to be those of whom the Apostle hath warned us as forbidding to marry; who say
+        that marriage is a bad thing in itself, and a work of the devil. Yet we read in the Gospel that
+        when the Lord was asked, Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife for every cause? He
+        answered that it was not lawful, except it were for fornication. In which answer ye will
+        remember that He used these words: What God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.
+
+
+        They who are well instructed in the Catholic religion know that God is the Author and Blesser of
+        marriage; and that, whereas joining together in marriage is of God, divorce is of the devil. But
+        it is lawful for a man to put away his wife in case of fornication, for by not keeping a wife's
+        faith to her husband she herself hath first willed not to be wife. They also who have made a vow
+        of their virginity to God and have thereby attained to an higher degree of honour and holiness
+        in the Church, are not unmarried, for they are a special part of the marriage of the whole
+        Church, which is the Bride of Christ.
+
+
+        And by this, therefore, the Lord being asked, went to the marriage, to strengthen the marriage
+        tie, and to shed light on the hidden meaning of matrimony. In that marriage feast the Bridegroom
+        to whom it was said, "Thou hast kept the good wine until now," was a figure of the Lord Christ,
+        Who hath kept until now the good wine, namely the Gospel.

+        The reason of the Apostle's writing to the Galatians was this: that they might understand that
+        the grace of God had worked in them that they were no longer under the law. For when the grace
+        of the Gospel was preached to them, there had not been wanting to them some of them of the
+        circumcision, Christians indeed in name, but who had not yet apprehended that great benefit of
+        grace, and desiring still to be bound with burdens of the law: burdens which the Lord God had
+        laid, not upon such as serve righteousness, but upon such as serve sin, laying, that is to say,
+        upon the unrighteous a righteous law, whereby their unrighteousness was made manifest, not taken
+        away. For there is not anything which taketh away sin, save only the grace of faith which worketh
+        by love.
+
+
+        The men of the circumcision would have the Galatians, who were under grace, to be under the
+        burdens of the law, persuading them that the Gospel profited them nothing, unless they should be
+        circumcised, and take on them the other outward observances of the Jews' religion. Whence the
+        Galatians began to have doubts of the Apostle Paul, by whom the Gospel had been preached to
+        them, as one that held not the doctrine of the other Apostles, who compelled the Gentiles to come
+        under the law.
+
+
+        The same question is discussed in the Epistle to the Romans, but with this difference: in that
+        case the Apostle putteth an end to the discussion, and stilleth the strife which had arisen
+        between the Jewish and the Gentile converts, in consequence of the Jews holding that they had
+        earned the knowledge of the Gospel as a reward for their observance of the law, and grudging the
+        same knowledge to the uncircumcised, as to men who had done nothing to deserve it; and the
+        Gentiles, on the contrary, maintaining that they were superior to the Jews, in that they were
+        not the murderers of the Lord. Now, in this Epistle to the Galatians, the Apostle addresseth
+        himself to those who were troubled by the authority claimed by them who were of the
+        circumcision, and sought to bring into subjection to the law them who were of the uncircumcision.

+        When the Lord was come down from the mountain, great multitudes followed Him. They were not
+        able to follow Him when He went up. And first there came a leper. This poor creature's disease
+        had prevented him from hearing the Saviour's long sermon on the Mount. Let it be noted that he
+        is the first person specially named as being healed. The second was the Centurion's servant;
+        the third was Peter's wife's mother, who was sick of a fever at Capernaum; the fourth were they
+        who were brought unto Christ as being troubled with evil spirits, from whom He by His word cast
+        out the evil spirits, at the same time that He healed all that were sick.
+
+
+        And, behold, there came a leper, and worshipped Him, saying: Properly after preaching and
+        doctrine cometh occasion for a sign, that the power of the miracle might confirm in the hearers
+        the truth of the teaching that had gone before. Lord, if Thou wilt, Thou canst make me clean. He
+        that prayeth the Lord to have the will, doubteth not but that He hath the power. And Jesus put
+        forth His hand, and touched him, saying: I will; be thou clean. As soon as the Lord put forth
+        His Hand, the leprosy departed. Let us remark how lowly and unbragging is the Lord's language.
+        The leper had said, If Thou wilt; the Lord answereth, I will. The leper, Thou canst make me
+        clean; the Lord, Be thou clean. Most Latin readers, misled by the identity of form in that
+        language between the Present Infinitive Active and the Second Person Singular Present
+        Imperative Passive of the Verb, read Christ's answer as if it were, I will to make thee clean.
+        This is wrong. The sentences are separate. First cometh the expression of volition, I will, then
+        the command, Be thou clean.
+
+
+        And Jesus saith unto him: See thou tell no man. What need was there to tell what his body
+        showed? But go thy way, show thyself to the Priest. There were diverse reasons why Christ should
+        send him to the Priest. First, for humility's sake, that He might show reverence to God's
+        Priest. Then there was a command in the law that they that were cleansed of leprosy should make
+        an offering to the Priests. Moreover, that, when the Priests saw the leper cleansed, they might
+        either believe in the Saviour, or refuse to believe; if they believed, that they might be saved,
+        and, if they believed not, that they might have no excuse. Lastly, that He might give no ground
+        for the accusation that was so often brought against Him, that He was unobservant of the law.

+        We refresh the body lest it should grow too weak and fail us; we chasten it by abstinence, lest

+        weakness and change?
+

+        Therefore Paul saith: For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason
+        of Him Who hath subjected the same in hope: because the creature itself also shall be delivered
+        from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God. The creature was
+        made subject to vanity, not willingly: for when man had of his own free will abdicated his state
+        of unchangeable blessedness, the just sentence of death was passed upon him, and whether he
+        willed or not, he became subject to the state of change and corruption. But the creature itself

+        sorrow no more. For though we earnestly desire to appear before God, we are still hindered by the
+        burden of this dying body. Rightly then are we called prisoners, since we are not free to go

+        The fifth sign that He did was when He took ship at Capernaum, and commanded the winds and the
+        sea: the sixth, when, in the country of the Gergesenes, He suffered the devils to enter into the
+        swine: the seventh, when, as He came into His own city, He cured the man sick of the palsy lying
+        on a bed. The first man sick of the palsy that He cured was the centurion's servant.
+
+
+        But He was asleep; and His disciples came to Him, and awoke Him, saying: Lord, save us. There is
+        a type of this in the history of Jonah, who, when the storm arose, was lying fast asleep, and
+        whom the sailors woke to help them; who also saved the sailors by commanding them to throw him
+        into the sea, the said casting of him into the sea, being, as we know, a figure of Christ's
+        Passion. Then He arose and rebuked the winds and the sea. From these words we understand that
+        all things, which have been made, are sentient to their Maker. All things which He rebuketh or
+        commandeth, hear His voice. This is not the error of the heretics who will have it that
+        everything is quick, but part of the majesty of the Creator, Who maketh to feel Him things which
+        we cannot make to feel us.
+
+
+        But the men marvelled, saying: What manner of man is this, that even the winds and the sea obey
+        Him? It was not His disciples that marvelled, but the sailors, and the others that were in the
+        ship. If however, any one willeth to withstand this our interpretation and to maintain that it
+        was the disciples who marvelled, we are ready to answer them that they who knew not before the
+        power of the Saviour deserve to be stripped of the title of disciples, and to be called simply
+        the men.

+        This is a saying made for man, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into this
+        world to save sinners. Listen to the words of the Gospel: The Son of man is come to seek, and to
+        save that which was lost. If man had not been lost, the Son of man would not have come.
+        Wherefore, man had been lost; God came made Man, and man was found; man had perished by his own
+        free will: God made Man came by grace which setteth free.
+
+
+        Dost thou ask how free-will availeth to evil? Call to mind a sinner. Dost thou ask what God made
+        Man availeth to help? Consider in Him the grace which setteth free. There is no example which so
+        showeth what availeth the free will of man, when it is taken possession of by pride, to use it
+        without God's help: of evil is there no greater and plainer example, than the first man. The
+        first man fell, and where had he been if the second Man had not come? As the first was man, so
+        was the second Man, and therefore is this saying a saying made for man.
+
+
+        Neither is there any example which so showeth what availeth the tenderness of the grace and the
+        abundance of the All-might of God, as the Man That is the Mediator between God and men, the Man
+        Christ Jesus. For what do we say, my brethren? I speak to them that have been bred up in the
+        Catholic Church, or who have been reconciled to that Church. We know and hold that the Mediator
+        between God and men, the Man Christ Jesus, as touching upon His Manhood, is of the same nature
+        as we. For our flesh is not of one nature, and His Flesh of another nature, neither our soul of

+        When the Shepherds of the Church wax careless, and since the Apostles sleep the sleep of death,
+        cometh the devil, and soweth them whom the Lord calleth a seed of evil-doers. Now, are these seed
+        of evil-doers the heretics, or Catholics of bad lives? It is possible to call even the heretics a
+        seed of evil-doers because they have sprung up from the seed of the Gospel, and been begotten in
+        the Name of Christ, though afterwards they have turned after crooked ways and lying doctrines.
+
+
+        But whereas it is written that they were sown in the midst of the wheat, we ought haply to
+        understand that they are of one communion with the righteous. Nevertheless, forasmuch as the
+        Lord saith, The field is the world, (and not, the Church,) we may well understand that the seed
+        of evil doers are the heretics, since in this world they are mingled together with the good, not
+        in one common Communion, but only under one common name of Christian. But they which are of one
+        faith with the good seed, and yet are themselves worthless, may more fitly be likened to straw
+        than to tares, since the straw springeth from one soil and one root with the good ear.
+
+
+        However, as touching the net cast into the sea, and enclosing a great multitude of fishes, both
+        bad and good, we may well understand that by the bad are meant Catholics of bad lives. For the
+        sea is one thing whereby we may understand to be signified the world; and the net another, which
+        seemeth to signify our faith, or the Communion of one Church. Between heretics and sinful
+        Catholics there is this difference, that heretics believe a lie, and sinful Catholics believe the
+        truth, but live not as they believe.

+        If the heretics had but known the person, the matter, and the times of the Apostle who spoke,

+        and withal so foolishly against Christ. It will be permitted to us to return, and to take again
+        the first words of the Lesson. The Apostle then saith: God, Who at sundry times and in diverse
+        manners, spake in time past unto the fathers by the Prophets, hath in these last days spoken
+        unto us by His Son: and again, a little farther on: When the Son had purged our sins, He sat down
+        on the right hand of the Majesty on high: being made so much better than the angels as He hath
+        by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they. The Apostle here expressly nameth the
+        times wherein God hath spoken unto us by His Son, and wherein the Same His Son hath purged our
+        sins; for when hath He spoken unto us by His Son, when did the Son purge our sins, or when was He
+        born a Man, but since God spake unto the Fathers by the Prophets, namely, in these last days?
+
+
+        The Apostle, about to enter on the subject of the Word's human dispensation and the last days,
+        naturally mentioneth first that God had not up to those days been silent, but had spoken unto the
+        fathers by the Prophets: and, after the Prophets had discharged their office, and the law had
+        been given by the ministry of angels, that the Son also came down unto us to minister: and then
+        he addeth, being made so much better than the angels, to show that as the Son differeth from a
+        servant, so is the ministry of the Son better than the duty and office of servants.
+
+
+        The Apostle, therefore, seeing the difference between the new ministry and the old, maketh very
+        bold in writing and speaking to the Jews. For this cause, therefore, he doth not compare the
+        details of the two ministries, and then come to the general conclusion that the new was greater
+        or more honourable than the old, (lest any should understand that the two ministries were of the
+        same kind, and that the conclusion that the new is better is arrived at by comparing the degrees
+        in each of things which they had in common,) but he saith that the Son was made better, to

+        Gospel seed, though, when it was sown, it seemed to be the least of all seeds, when once it is
+        rooted in the soul of man, or in the whole world, groweth not into an herb, but becometh a tree,
+        so that the birds of the air (whereby we may understand, either the souls of believers, or the

+        Abraham was truly a great man, illustrious as an example of many virtues; one the like of whom
+        the day-dreams of Philosophy have not been able to produce. That which she imagineth is less
+        than that which he did; his simple truth and faith were something grander than her lying rounded
+        periods. Let us then consider what this man's loyalty was. For that virtue is first to be taken
+        which was the source of all the others, and thus this was the first which God called for from
+        him, when He said: Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father's
+        house. It would have been enough to have said, Get thee out of thy country, for there were his
+        kindred, and there his father's house.
+
+
+        But He gave the details of his sacrifice one by one, that He might see whether he loved Him, lest
+        also he should begin rashly, or should seek to evade the heavenly commandment. But as the whole
+        of the precept was plainly set forth, lest anything should be unconsidered, so also were the
+        rewards set forth, lest the burden should seem hopeless. He was tried as one that is strong, he
+        was roused as one that is true, he was called as one that is righteous; and he departed loyally
+        as the Lord had spoken unto him. And Lot went forth with him. That saying of the Seven Wise Men
+        of Greece is much spoken of: Follow God. But this did Abraham before the Seven Wise Men were
+        thought of; he followed God, and went out of his own land.
+
+
+        But, forasmuch as Abraham had before had another country, namely, the land of the Chaldees,
+        whence went forth Terah the father of Abraham, and came unto Haran, and forasmuch as he to whom
+        it had been said, Get thee out from thy kindred, took Lot, his brother's son, with him, let us
+        consider whether this Get thee out of thy country signifieth not: get thee out of this earthly
+        dwelling, namely, our body, from which Paul came forth, who said: Our conversation is in heaven.
+    responsory:
+      la: "R. Angelus Dómini vocávit Abraham, dicens: * Ne exténdas manum tuam super púerum, eo quod tímeas Dóminum.\nV. Cumque extendísset manum ut immoláret fílium, ecce Angelus Dómini de cælo clamávit, dicens.\nR. Ne exténdas manum tuam super púerum, eo quod tímeas Dóminum."
+      en: "R. The Angel of the Lord called unto Abraham and said: * Lay not thine hand upon the lad; for now I know that thou fearest God.\nV. And Abraham stretched forth his hand to slay his son; and, behold, the Angel of the Lord called unto him out of heaven, and said:\nR.

+        sublevátur. Qui vidélicet cæcus recte et juxta viam sedére, et mendícans esse descríbitur. Ipsa

+        Our Redeemer, foreseeing that the minds of His disciples would be troubled by His suffering, told
+        them long before both of the pains of that suffering, and of the glory of His rising again, to
+        the end that, when they should see Him die as He had prophesied, they might not doubt that He
+        was likewise to rise again. But, since His disciples were yet carnal, and could not receive the
+        words telling of this mystery, He wrought a miracle before them. A blind man received his sight
+        before their eyes, that if they could not receive heavenly things by words, they might be
+        persuaded of heavenly things by deeds.
+
+
+        But, dearly beloved brethren, we must so take the miracles of our Lord and Saviour, as believing
+        both that they were actually wrought, and that they have some mystic interpretation for our
+        instruction. For in His works, power speaketh one thing and mystery again another. Behold here,
+        for instance. We know not historically who this blind man was, but we do know of what he was
+        mystically the figure. Mankind is blind, driven out from Eden in the persons of his first
+        parents, knowing not the light of heaven, and suffering the darkness of condemnation. But,
+        nevertheless, through the coming of his Redeemer, he is enlightened, so that now he seeth by hope
+        already the gladness of inward light, and walketh by good works in the path of life.
+
+
+        One must note that as Jesus drew to Jericho a blind man received his sight. Now, this name
+        Jericho, being interpreted, signifieth the city of the moon: and in Holy Scripture the moon is
+        used as a figure of our imperfect flesh, of whose gradual corruption her monthly waning is a
+        type. As, therefore, our Maker draweth nigh to Jericho, a blind man receiveth his sight. While
+        the Godhead taketh into itself our weak manhood, man receiveth again the light which he had lost.
+        By God's suffering in the Manhood, man is raised up toward God. This blind man is also well
+        described as sitting by the wayside begging, for the Truth saith: I am the Way.

Igitur puélla, cui díxero, Da mihi aquam de hýdria tua, ut bibam: et illa díxerit, Bibe, dómine, et camélis tuis potum tríbuam: ipsa est, quam præparávit Dóminus fílio dómini mei.\nR.

+        The Lord threatened man with the punishment of death, in case he sinned. Thus did He gift him
+        with free will, while He yet kept His lordship over him, and helped him with the dread of
+        destruction. And so He put him in that happy garden, under the very shadow of the tree of life,
+        in that good place from whence, had he kept his righteousness, he might have passed to a better.
+        But the first man sinned, and was banished from Eden, and infected all his descendants with the
+        disease of sin, poisoning their very root, and bringing upon all that sentence of death and
+        damnation, which he had earned for himself. So that all that descend by fleshly generation from
+        Adam, and from the guilty woman, who was the cause of his sin and the partaker of his
+        punishment, derive from them original sin; whereby they are drawn through a way of diverse sins
+        and sorrows, towards that final ruin which they shall share with the rebel angels who are at once
+        their corrupters, their lords, and their comrades.
+
+
+        So by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin, and so death passed upon all men, in
+        whom all have sinned. By the world the Apostle signified in this place all mankind. Thus then
+        hath the matter stood. The damned mass of humanity lay in misery, or rather wallowed in it, and
+        fell from bad to worse, till it joined the company of the sinning angels, and both together
+        suffered the deserved punishment of their vile treason.
+
+
+        So the wrath of God appertained: whatever sin man, through the blind and untamed sting of his
+        flesh, willingly committeth, and whatever punishment, declared and open, he unwillingly
+        suffereth. There is, indeed, no pause in that goodness of the Creator whereby He giveth even to
+        the traitor angels life and strength, (which if He gave not, they would be annihilated,) and
+        whereby He formeth the seed of men, though they come of a corrupt and condemned stock, quickeneth
+        them, strengtheneth and fitteth their limbs for the changing seasons of their life, extendeth
+        their knowledge in diverse places, and giveth them whereon to live. It hath been His will rather

+        We read that the Lord was angry. It is in the thoughts, that is to say, in the knowledge of God,
+        that man being put on earth and weighted with the body cannot be without sin, for earth is the
+        home of temptations, and the flesh is a bait for corruption. Yet man had a reasonable soul, and
+        his soul had power to control his body; and, being so made, he made no struggle to keep himself
+        from falling into that from whence he would not return. God's thoughts are not as man's thoughts;
+        in Him there is no such thing as change of mind, no such thing as to be angry and then cool down
+        again. These things are written that we may know the bitterness of our sins, whereby we have
+        earned the Divine wrath. To such a degree had iniquity grown that God, Who by His nature cannot
+        be moved by anger, or hatred, or any passion whatsoever, is represented as provoked to anger.
+
+
+        And God threatened that He would destroy man. He said: I will destroy man, whom I have created,
+        from the face of the earth; both man and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air.
+        What harm had the animals done? For man's use had they been created, and, when man was wiped
+        away, they were of use no longer. And there is an higher reason. Man is a living soul, capable of
+        reason, who may be described as a living animal, subject to death, and endowed with reason. When
+        then the highest animal is gone, why should the lower branches remain? Why should anything be
+        saved alive, when righteousness, the basis of salvation, is to be no more?
+
+
+        But more effectually to condemn the rest of men, and to manifest the goodness of God, it is
+        written that Noah found grace in the eyes of the Lord. Here we learn also that the sin of his
+        neighbour casteth no shadow on the righteous, when he is kept as a stock from whence the whole
+        race are to spring. He is praised, not because he was of a noble race, but because he was a just
+        man and perfect. The stock of a just man yieldeth men of just souls; for virtues, like blood, are
+        hereditary. Among men are some families illustrious for honourable pedigrees, and so there are
+        also races of souls whose comeliness is the lustre of virtues.

+        Dearly beloved brethren, the passage from the Holy Gospel which ye have just heard, needeth not
+        so much that I should explain it, as that I should seek to enforce its lesson. The Truth Himself
+        hath explained it, and, after that, it beseemeth not man's frailty to fritter away His exposition
+        by any further comment. But there is, in that very explanation by the Lord, somewhat, which it
+        behoveth us well to weigh. If it were but we who bade you believe that by the seed is signified
+        the word; by the field, the world; by the birds, the devils; and by the thorns, riches, ye would
+        perchance doubt of the truth of our explanation. Therefore the Lord Himself hath vouchsafed to
+        give this explanation, and that, not for this parable only, but that ye may know in what manner
+        to interpret others, whereof He hath not given the meaning.
+
+
+        Beginning His explanation, the Lord saith that He speaketh in parables. Hereby He doth certify
+        us, when our weakness would unveil to you the hidden meaning of His words. If I spake of myself,
+        who would believe me when I say that riches are thorns? Thorns prick, but riches lull to rest.
+        And yet riches are indeed thorns, for the anxiety they bring is a ceaseless pricking to the minds
+        of their owners, and, if they lead into sin, they are thorns which bloodily tear the soul. But we
+        understand from another Evangelist that in this place the Lord speaketh, not of riches
+        themselves, but of the deceitfulness of riches.
+
+
+        Those riches are deceitful riches, which can be ours only for a little while; those riches are
+        deceitful riches, which cannot relieve the poverty of our souls. They are the only true riches,
+        which make us rich in virtues. If then, dearly beloved brethren, ye seek to be rich, earnestly
+        desire the true riches. If ye would be truly honourable, strive after the kingdom of heaven. If
+        ye love the bravery of titles, hasten to have your names written down at Court above, where
+        Angels are. Take to heart the Lord's words which your ear heareth. The food of the soul is the
+        word of God: when the stomach is sick it throweth up again the food which is put into it, and so
+        is the soul sick when a man heareth and digesteth not in his memory the Word of God. And if any
+        man cannot keep his food, that man's life is in desperate case.

+        Dearly beloved brethren, our Saviour is gone up from us into heaven, but let us not be troubled
+        on earth. Let only our heart be there with Him, and we shall have peace here. Let us in heart
+        thither ascend with Christ in the mean while, and when that glad day which He hath promised
+        cometh, our body will follow. But we must know, my brethren, that there are some things that
+        cannot ascend with Christ: pride cannot, nor covetousness, nor brutishness: no one of our
+        diseases can ascend thither where our Healer is. And, therefore, if we would follow our Healer,
+        we must needs leave our diseases and sins behind us. All such things tie us down, as it were,
+        with bands, and hamper us in the meshes of a net of sins: but, with God's help, we will say with
+        the Psalmist: "Let us break their bands asunder," that we may be able honestly to say to the
+        Lord: "Thou hast loosed my bonds, I will offer to thee the sacrifice of thanksgiving."
+
+
+        The Resurrection of the Lord is our hope: the Ascension of the Lord is our glorification. To-day
+        we keep the solemn holiday of the Ascension. If, therefore, our keeping of this holiday is to be
+        a right, faithful, earnest, holy, godly keeping, we must in mind likewise ascend, and lift up our
+        hearts unto the Lord. When we ascend we must not be high-minded, nor flatter ourselves with our
+        good works, as though they were our own. We must lift up our hearts unto the Lord. When man's
+        heart is lifted up, but not unto the Lord, such lifting-up is pride: to lift up the heart unto
+        the Lord, is to make the Most High our Refuge. Behold, my brethren, a great wonder. God is high,
+        but if thou art lifted up He fleeth from thee, whereas, if thou humblest thyself, He cometh down
+        to thee. Wherefore? "The Lord is high, yet hath He respect unto the lowly: but the proud He
+        knoweth from afar." To the lowly He hath respect, that He may raise them up: the proud He
+        knoweth from afar, that He may thrust them down.
+
+
+        Christ arose again, to give us hope that this mortal will yet put on immortality: He hath
+        assured us against an hopeless death, and against the thought that death endeth life. We were
+        troubled, even as touching the soul: but Christ, arising from the grave, hath assured to us the
+        resurrection of the body also. Believe therefore, that thou mayest be made pure. First it
+        behoveth thee to believe, if by faith thou wouldest in the end worthily see God. And wouldest
+        thou see God? Give ear to His own words: "Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see
+        God." Think first, then, how to purify thine heart; take from it whatsoever thou seest in it
+        which displeaseth God. God would come to thee: hear Him saying: "I and the Father will come, and

+        The Lord Jesus, in that discourse which He addressed to His disciples after the Last Supper, when
+        He was on the very eve of the Passion, when He was, as it were, about to go away and leave them
+        as touching His bodily Presence, albeit as touching His spiritual Presence, He is with us alway
