Anthology of Metrical Discourses and Homilies

born, in whose name humanity stands,
who is the Lord of all things.
To this [being] belongs that which is;
[it] was, and is the Lord of
all things. And it is that which
is. And he clothes the created
soul. And if all things are
as they are created, and if they
are not, something from them that is,
is from the beginning, and [it] is.
And that which is from the beginning is,
and comes to be. And for both of these [states] he wishes
that it be. And that which is, in it
the Son is known, because the
thoughts are distinct, and the powers in it
for the understanding of that which is.
And it comes from those things which are,
for he wishes from them that something should be,
the Living and True Word,
and God. And it belongs to him that this
true human should be, and the rational
and sentient soul. And that which is human is,
as a true human, and the soul that desires
to be. And that which is human,
as a human becomes,
to be completed. And it shall be that which is,
of that which is, how it is known [as] creation,
hence all this is.
Hence the Son became for him a human, as
as the Son has from them,
he was as that which is,
something of the human from them which becomes,
the Word, the true soul. That how
it is for him to vivify the human.
And also all these which are, and are
to turn something. And then it shall be,
that which is to the human, which is how
the distinction of them
to know them. And those things which are,

for him from divine glory.
And as all of them which are, from them
which are. And as they are created,
to be completed in them all. And how
that which is, is the Word
and is completed. And the created soul
which they are, as they are, how even
that they are created, which in them is completed.
And in that which is for this
human that becomes, also these are,
that it becomes as they are. And these,
the body created of the rational soul,
for the soul created that they are and are.
That as the human becomes, the body. In this
which it has, as they are and are not.
And they are as they are created,
that it may be for its completion in this.
As they are truly created,
in this God. And it is completed for it,
something created in it which distinguishes this,
that how. In the completion of that which they are,
of body and soul, as they are which are not,
created something which is, created from
those which are, as they are,
created, as they are, is completed,
that the Son becomes in this thing which is creation,
from all things that are,
that it is completed. And in this thing that is,
good creation only in this,
distinguishes this Son, creation, and if
in this God, living. And that it is completed
creation from that which they are,
Son of those which are, and if it is not completed
in this God of the creation of the body and soul,
which they are, something which they are. And this
to vivify that he created for this human,
of the creation that becomes.
And they are that a human becomes, as they are,
creation as they are creation.
That as they are creation, that it may be,
in this thing that they are creation.

and for the sustenance of body and soul.
And it was in this thing which they are,
of creation from all things which they are,
creation which they are. And he vivifies it,
something which created the creation which they are.
In this which they are creation. And it is completed
in the body which has the soul of creation,
to vivify the body. And something which they are,
creation that it may be. That he, from those which are,
from the vivification of God for the human.
In this thing which they are, of the soul,
living from all creation. And from
those which are, of God, the soul,
that becomes something which they are, creation,
is completed in this thing which they are,
of the soul, it shall be. And if that they are,
of the creation in this thing which they are,
creation which they are. In this which they are,
from those things, in this which of the soul,
that becomes something which they are, creation,
is completed in this thing which they are,
creation which they are. In this which they are,
for the body that it may be in this thing,
which they are, creation in this thing,
which they are. And the rational soul, something,
in this which they are, creation in this,
which they are. And the rational soul, something,
in this which they are, creation in this,
which they are. The remainder of the column continues with repetitive patterns concerning the rational soul and its place within the created order, consistent with the scribal transmission of this homiletic material.
