Εἶδεν τοιγαροῦν θεὸν ὁ Ἰακὼβ, καὶ οὐκ ἐψεύσατο, εἶδεν δὲ ὡς ὁ ὀφθεὶς ηὐδόκησεν ὀφθῆναι· οἶδεν γὰρ θεὸς ἑαυτὸν ἐμφανίζειν [ὡς] βούλεται καὶ τὸ κώλυον αὐτὸν καὶ διεῖργον τὸ κατὰ γνώμην οὐκ ἔστιν, κἂν μὴ χωροῦσιν οὔτε οἱ ἀνώτατοι φέρειν αὐτοῦ τὴν εἰς ἄκρον δόξαν· οὕτω καὶ Μαρία εἶδεν θεὸν ἐνανθρωπήσαντα ἀτρέπτως καὶ ἐπὶ τὸν ἅγιον καὶ συμπροσκύνητον αὐτοῦ ναὸν σπονδὴν εὐωδίας ἔσπεισεν τουτ' ἔστιν αὐτὸ ἐφ' ἑαυτῷ, ἀμέριστος γὰρ ἡ ἕνωσις καὶ ἀσύγχυτον τὸ τῆς εὐσεβείας μυστήριον καὶ ἀδιαίρετος ἡ εἰς τὸν ἕνα τῆς Τριάδος Κύριον Ἰησοῦν Χριστὸν ὁμολογία.
