“...; in the same way, having been born, and through death existing no longer, and seen no longer, I shall exist again, just as before I was not, but was afterwards born. Even though fire destroy all traces of my flesh, the world receives the vaporized matter;and though dispersed through rivers and seas, or torn in pieces by wild beast, I am laid up in the storehouses of a wealthy Lord.” Tatian, Address to the Greeks, VI, ANF 2: 67
