ergo ego, cum videam manibus sic crescere Christi parva alimenta hominum, possum dubitare peripsum exiguas rerum species elementaque mundi ex nihilo primum modica et mox grandia sensim crevisse, ex modicis quae consummata videmus? ac ne post hominum pastus calcata perirent, neve relicta lupis aut vulpibus exiguisve muribus in praedam nullo custode iacerent, bis sex adpositi, cumulatim qui bona Christi servarent gravidis procul ostentata canistris.
When, therefore, I see a small supply of nourishment for men thus grow under Christs hands, can I doubt that by Him, too, the small forms of things and elements of the world first arose in smallness out of nothing, and then by degrees grew great, which now we see from small beginnings made perfect? And lest, after men were fed, the blessings of Christ should be trampled on and wasted, or left to lie uncared for and become the spoil of wolves or foxes or tiny mice, twelve men were put in charge of them, to gather them together and save them and display them in laden baskets.
