St Photius the Great, tr. Freese, 1920; selections

Codex 139: Athanasius, Commentary on Ecclesiastes and the Song of Songs

Read the Commentary on Ecclesiastes and the Song of Songs by the great Athanasius. The style is clear, like that of all his writings. But neither this nor any other of his works with which I am acquainted approaches the grace and beauty of the letters containing an apology for his flight and an account of his exile.
