("With God all things are possible." Matthew 19:26)
'The spouse in the canticles feedeth among the lilies. One of the sacred interpreters, explaining these words, says, that "as the devil revels in the uncleanness of lust, so Christ feeds on the lilies of chastity." Venerable Bede asserts that the hymn of the virgins is more agreeable to the Lamb than that of all the other saints.'
