And therefore they, themselves, in their synodical epistle, say, that the Holy Fathers before them doubted not to call the Blessed Virgin, etor&rav--Deiparam--'the Mother of God.' Indeed, an whole age before that council, we find Eusebius expressly giving that title to the sacred Virgin, in his third book of the Life of Constantine, chap. xliii. And Socrates, a most credible witness in this matter, in the seventh book of his Eccl.

Nay, the blessed martyr and disciple of the Apostles, Ignatius, in his Epiatle to the Ephesians, edit. Voss. p. 27, feared not to say, ' Our Lord Jesus Christ was conceived of Mary.'
