"The power that teaches us piety, the word of salvation... comes to many, and subdues to itself all whom it visits: for there is nothing that shall resist it, inasmuch as it is and shall be itself the king of all; although as yet it is hidden, and is not recognised... the Holy Word, the most lovely object of all, who attracts all irresistibly toward Himself by His unutterable beauty... the Saviour of all men, even of the half-dead and the despoiled, the Protector and Physician for all, the Word, that sleepless Keeper of all."
