Cosmas Indicopleustes · c. A.D. 550
Acts 12:15 · Douay-Rheims
“But they said to her: Thou art mad. But she affirmed that it was so. Then said they: It is his angel.”
On this verse:
“archangels are entrusted with the administration and guardianship of particular nations and kingdoms: Yea, even that an angel attends each man as his guardian; as when the church says concerning Peter in Acts: It is his angel. The Lord likewise in the Gospels exclaims: For their angels always behold the face of my Father who is in heaven; thus plainly showing that each one of us has his angel, evidently as his guide and his guardian”
