¶7
O marvellous wonder! He who baptizes in the Holy Spirit and in fire, is coming into the Jordan to be baptised by John; not bare God, nor simple human, but in two natures one and the same only-begotten Son. As a human he seeks baptism from a mortal, while as God he takes away the sin of the world and grants his great mercy.
