Hitherto we have been taught that we should call upon the saints; that they are our intercessors with God, while, moreover, we have had recourse to our dear Virgin, and have set her up as Mediatress, and have let Christ go as an angry judge. This the Scripture does not do; it goes further, and exalts Christ; teaching that he is our Mediator, by whom we come to the Father.
Sun, whose fires lighten all the works of the world, and thou, Juno, mediatress and witness of these my distresses, and Hecate, cried on by night in crossways of cities, and you, fatal avenging sisters and gods of dying Elissa, hear me now; bend your just deity to my woes, and listen to our prayers.
Yet sometimes I think that fainter and fainter would have been her procrastinations, had I been a man of courage but so fearful was I of offending! A confounded thing! The man to be so bashful; the woman to want so much courting! How shall two such come together no kind mediatress in the way? But I must be contented.
