| Translation(s) |
Paul, resounding with the thunder-voiced grace of the Holy Spirit, a sound louder than the thunder, drives away every thunderstruck error. For the pious he creates a honeysweet-sounding song, to worship the light with triple brightness that rules solely. He showed himself to be a fire-breathing orator of the church, and the proclaimer of Christ for the whole world. |
