Having exposed the wiles of the enemy, tell him with conviction: I have had enough of you, O devil. And leave the evil one and join yourself to the man-befriending God. Are you wounded? Despair no. Have you fallen? Get up and say bravely: now I have begun. Fall down before your merciful Master and confess your sins. - St. Ephrem the Syrian, *A Spiritual Psalter* #122
