Σιαγόνες αὐτοῦ ὡς φιάλαι τοῦ ἀρώματος, φύουσαι μυρεψικά. Σιαγόνας Χριστοῦ τοὺς διακονουμένους λόγῳ Θεοῦ καὶ τροφῇ πνευματικῇ νοητέον· διὰ μὲν τὴν πληρότητα τῆς εὐωδίας τῶν καλῶν ἔργων καὶ λόγων, ἐοικότας φιάλαις τοῦ ἀρώματος· διὰ δὲ τὸ ἐῤῥιζωμένον ἐν αὐταῖς ποικίλον ἐν πάσῃ συνθέσει γραφῆς λόγον ἀεὶ καρποφοροῦντας μυρεψικόν. Κοιλίααὐτοῦ πυξίον ἐλεφάντινον, ἐπὶ λίθου σαπφείρου.
