"I can truly affirm of myself that my studies have been profitable and availing to
me, only so far as I have endeavoured to use all my other knowledge as a glass, enabling
me to receive more light in a wider field of vision from the word of God."-COLERIDGE.

πέπλος χρυσούς έστι των γραφών ή διήγησις, ο στήμων χρυσός, η κρόκη χρυσός. ου
παρυφαίνω των αραχνων τα υφάσματα των εμων λογισμών την ασθένειαν,οίδα.-CHRYSOSTOM.
Op. Tom. III. p. 887.

ουκ έστιν εξαντληθήναι ποτε τον νούν των γραφών πηγή τίς έστιν ουκ έχουσα πέρας-
όσο γαρ άν τις αυτοίς ενδιατριβή τοσούτω οξύτερον βλέπει.-Ιd. Tom. VΙΙΙ. p. 592.
