George Leo Haydock, on Tob 11:7

“And Raphael said to Tobias: As soon as thou shalt come into thy house, forthwith adore the Lord thy God: and giving thanks to him, go to thy father, and kiss him.”

“To. Greek, “I know, Tobias, that thy father will open his eyes. Anoint, therefore, the gall upon his eyes, and feeling the smart, he will rub and remove the white specks, and shall see thee.” (Haydock) — God. This laudable custom was observed by the ancient solitaries, and prescribed by the rule of St. Benedict, chap. 53.”
