 63 XI  |          of pleasure, and given to calumnious speeches. Avoid also the
 64     | cannot

 66 IX  |        beginning of the world, and cast down its partition-wall.
 67 X   |             even as He prayed in a certain place, saying, "But do Thou,
 68 X   |       scourged, was smitten on the cheek, was spit upon; He wore
 69 V   |            the pre-eminence of the cherubim and seraphim, the sublimity

 84 VII |        therefore, ye also put away conceit, arrogance, disdain, and
 85 X   |         truth. Mary then did truly conceive a body which had God inhabiting

 93 VII |         but a sacred assembly, the counsellors and assessors of the bishop?
 94 XI  |       ashamed of the passion, they cover the transgression of the

102 VII |          deacons. Such a person is defiled in his conscience, and is
103 VI  |         ashamed of His cross; they deny His passion; and they do
104 XI  |        Lord of glory." But now, by denying the cross, and being ashamed
105 VIII|           of perishing through the depravity that was in us. Let no one

109 XII |          of the lot for which I am destined, and that I may not be found
110 VII |            the brother of him that destroys himself." If, therefore,
111 V   |           perfect; nor am I such a disciple as Paul or Peter. For many

189 VII |            utterly without God, an impious man who despises Christ,

194 IX  |           such as are possessed of incorporeal natures; by those on earth,
195 XI  |           and their fruit would be incorruptible. By it He calls you through
196 VII |   conscience, and is worse than an infidel. For what is the bishop

214 X   |          years, He was baptized by John, really and not in appearance;
215 VI  |           but that ye be perfectly joined together in the same mind,
216 IX  |         was spoken by Himself, "As Jonah was three days and three

218 X   |          was Himself the Judge was judged by the Jews, falsely so
219 VI  |         same mind, and in the same judgment." For there are some vain
220 III |           whose place they are the keepers, even as the bishop is the
221 XI  |           but rather of those who "killed the Lord of glory." But
222 V   |       sublimity of the spirit, the kingdom of the Lord, and above all,

232 IV  |          worthy to do so. For this longing, though it is not manifest
233 VIII|          of His love, wherewith He loved us when He gave Himself
234 XI  |         falsely so called, who are lovers of pleasure, and given to
235 III |            ungodly must reverence. Loving you as I do, I avoid writing
236 V   |        above all, the incomparable majesty of Almighty God-though I
237 IV  |          longing, though it is not manifest to many, all the more vehemently
238 IV  |           brought to nought.~But I measure myself, that I may not perish

248 X   |        whom they have pierced, and mourn over themselves as over
249 V   |            you things more full of mystery? But I fear to do so, lest
250 I   |          but according to inherent nature, as Polybius your bishop
251 IX  |           possessed of incorporeal natures; by those on earth, the

254 VII |            obedience to such, must needs be one utterly without God,
