This salutation is of great antiquity. The prophet used the selfsame salutation to Azas. And the Angel Gabriel expressed the same idea, Dominns tecum, to the Blessed Virgin.
All this promised very ill for the future. He who already considered the priesthood as a trial, saw with terror the bishopric drawing near. Dic eis ista, ut plorent ... et sic eos rape tecum ad Deum: quia de spiritu ejus haec dicis eis, si dicis ardens igne caritatis.
