  6 VI |             but with that which is accounted the foolishnessof the cross,
  7 III|        hear not. See, beloved, how accurate are these words; how the
  8 III|            the devout!The children acknowledge their Creator, but their
  9 VI |        destroyers by means of that Adam who was once preyed on by
 10 V  |           a beginning, or could be added to or diminished-away with
 11 VII|         stopping their mouths; but adopting a new and foolish device,
 12 V  |        also, with one and the same adoration, we worship the one Deity
 13 VII|         all created things equally adored; for to Him every knee shall

 23 V  |            in terrible majesty, by angels and powers attended. O the
 24 II |           the heavenly hosts sang, announcing salvation upon earth, "Holy,
 25 VII|         our Saviour-God, ceased to answer Him again, the truth stopping
 26 VII|       Thyself God?But what to this answers the long-suffering One,
 27 VII|       these frenzied ones; with an apology He keeps their wrath in
 28 II |          holy chorus, and with the apostles, let us make way for Him

138 VII|         adopting a new and foolish device, they took counsel against
139 VI |          the Lord: God against the devil; not manifestly in His might,
