O medicinam omnibus consulentem, omnia tumentia comprimentem,
omnia tabescentia reficientem, omnia superflua resecantem,
omnia necessaria custodientem, omnia perdita reparantem,
omnia depravata corrigentem!
Quis iam se extollat contra Filium Dei?
Oh, Medicine, looking after all: reducing all swellings of pride;
renewing all wasted lives; cutting out all that is superfluous;
preserving all that is necessary; restoring all that has been lost;
curing all that has been corrupted!
Who should now raise himself up against the Son of God?
噢,治百病的良药:它压抑所有傲慢,
振奋所有萎靡,祛除所有冗赘,
保留所有所需,修补所有损失,
治愈所有腐败!
现在,谁还会起身和神之子作对?
~ Augustinus, De Agone Christiano 11.12
