But observe v. supr. ch.
iii. that although
we hold that the natures of the Lord permeate one another, yet we know
that the permeation springs from the divine nature. For it is
that that penetrates and permeates all things, as it wills, while
nothing penetrates it: and it is it, too, that imparts to the
flesh its own peculiar glories, while abiding itself impossible and
without participation in the affections of the flesh. For if the
sun imparts to us his energies and yet does not participate in ours,
how much the rather must this be true of the Creator and Lord of the
Sun Leontius de
sectis, Act. 3..
