"For as Eve was seduced by the word of an angel to avoid God after she had disobeyed His word, so Mary, by the word of an angel, had the glad tidings delivered to the her that she might bear God, obeying His word. And whereas the former had disobbeyed God, yet the latter was persuaded to obey God in order that the Virgin Mary might be the advocate of the virgin Eve."
