John 1:1
Douay-Rheims
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
Augustine of Hippo
(de Verb. Dom. Serm. 38) Now the Word of God is a Form, not a formation, but the Form of all forms, a Form unchangeable, removed from accident, from failure, from time, from space, surpassing all things, and existing in all things as a kind of foundation underneath, and summit above them.
