So S. Augustine, 1Non ait, Mundi estis propter Baptisma, quo loti estis: sed propter Verbum, quod locutus sum vobis: Christe saithe not, Ye are Clean for the Baptisms sake, wherewith ye are washed: but for the Words sake, that I have spoken unto you.2 And again, Foelix Venter, qui te portavit &c. Blessed is that womb, that bare thee. But Christ answered, Nay, Blessed be they, that hear the Word of God, and keep the same: That is to say, My Mother, whom ye call Blessed, thereof is Blessed, for that she keepeth the Word of God.
So S. Augustine, 1Non ait, Mundi estis propter Baptisma, quo loti estis: sed propter Verbum, quod locutus sum vobis: Christe saithe not, Ye are Cleane for the Baptismes sake, wherewith ye are wasshed: but for the VVoordes sake, that I haue spoken vnto you.2 And againe, Foelix Venter, qui te portauit &c. Blissed is that woombe, that bare thee. But Christe answeared, Naie, Blissed be they, that heare the VVoorde of God, and keepe the same: That is to say, My Mother, whome ye cal Blissed, thereof is Blissed, for that shee keepeth the VVoorde of God.

Likewise again, 1Materna propinquitas nihil Matri profuisset, nisi Foelicius Christum in Corde, quàm in Carne gestasset: The nearness of Mothers Blood should have profited Christs Mother nothing at all, onles she had more blessedly carried Christ in her Harte, then in her Body.
