St Cyril of Jerusalem First Lecture on the Mysteries
10. Guarded therefore by these discourses, be sober . For our adversary the devil , as was just now read, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour . But though in former times death was mighty and devoured, at the holy Laver of regeneration God has wiped away every tear from off all faces . For thou shalt no more mourn, now that thou hast put off the old man; but thou shalt keep holy-day, clothed in the garment of salvation , even Jesus Christ.
