O Mother of God and Virgin ... you alone were
vouchsafed the gifts of the Spirit in their totality, or rather, you alone held
mysteriously in your womb, Him in Whom are the treasures of all these spiritual
gifts; and became, inexplicably, His Tabernacle. ... You alone fulfilled all
[the prophetic] visions, surpassing our human nature by means of your union
with God; not just when you gave birth in a marvelous way, but also through the
preceding fellowship with Him in everything good, which resulted from your
utter purity.
