827. To this I shall add this most important fact. Mary, the Lord's mother, once passed by; she was seen overhead, in white clothing. Then she paused to say that she had been the Lord's mother, and He was born to her; but that on becoming God He had put off everything human He derived from her, and she now therefore worships Him as her God, and does not want anyone to acknowledge Him as her son, since everything in Him is Divine.
