Yesterday
we celebrated the birth in time of our eternal King. Today we
celebrate the triumphant suffering of his soldier. Yesterday our
king, clothed in his robe of flesh, left his place in the virgin’s
womb and graciously visited the world. Today his soldier leaves the
tabernacle of his body and goes triumphantly to heaven.

Saint Fulgentius of Ruspe from a sermon
