About this work

Author: Unknown

5. And I chose her of my own will,

‹ Section 4 Section 6 ›

with

the

concurrence

of

my

Father

,

and

the

counsel

of

the

Holy

Spirit

.

And

I

was

made

flesh

of

her

,

by

a

mystery

which

transcends

the

grasp

of

created

reason

.

And

three

months

after

her

conception

the

righteous

man

Joseph

returned

from

the

place

where

he

worked

at

his

trade

;

and

when

he

found

my

virgin

mother

pregnant

,

he

was

greatly

perplexed

,

and

thought

of

sending

her

away

secretly

.

But

from

fear

,

and

sorrow

,

and

the

anguish

of

his

heart

,

he

could

endure

neither

to

eat

nor

drink

that

day

.
