Matthew 5:8
Douay-Rheims
Blessed are the clean of heart: for they shall see God.
Ambrose of Milan
(in Luc. vi. 22.) The merciful loses the benefit of his mercy, unless he shews it from a pure heart; for if he seeks to have whereof to boast, he loses the fruit of his deeds; the next that follows therefore is, Blessed are the pure in heart.
