. . . With all my strength I pray to God for you, that He may send into your hearts that fire, which our Lord Jesus Christ has come to send on the earth (Luke 12:49), that you may have power to govern rightly your intentions and senses and to distinguish good from evil. St Anthony the Great, "Early Fathers From the Philokalia," by E. Kadloubovsky and G.E.H. Palmer, (London: Faber and Faber, 1954), pp. 41-44
