"The Holy Spirit…relates, by Moses, the greatness of Adam's happiness…. That benediction of God…had in this place poured itself forth…. Man, as often as he tasted the fruit of that tree, should remember whence he received his life, in order that he might acknowledge that he lives not by his own power but by the kindness of God alone."
