“ Since the Saviour of the world, with the purpose of saving the race of men, was born of the immaculate and virgin Mary, [2] and in the form of the flesh trod the enemy under foot, in the exercise of the power of His own proper divinity; in the same manner also will the accuser come forth from an impure woman upon the earth, but shall be born of a virgin spuriously.

But the accuser, though he take up the flesh, will do it only in appearance ”
