"had he not become flesh and made his dwelling among us"

"We might have despaired of ourselves, thinking your Word remote from any conjunction with mankind, had he not become flesh and made his dwelling among us."

"potuimus putare uerbum tuum remotum esse a coniunctione hominis et desperare de nobis, nisi caro fieret et habitaret in nobis."

St. Augustine, Confessions 10.(43.)69, trans. Liturgy of the hours (Universalis).
