For if our talk be of the natures themselves, 1which are in Christ: Theodoret with other fathers, teacheth us, that we must so speak, as we do not say, that those which are proper to the one nature, are in very deed common to the other: but that we give to either of them alone, that which belongeth to it. Even as that which belongeth to the soul, we give it not to the body, and contrary wise. But if we speak of the person, we must so frame our speech, that we may declare those things which are proper to each nature to be truly and indeed common to the whole person: even as also we give to the whole man really and in trueth, aswell those things which belong to the soul, as to the body.
