“St. Gregory Nazianzen calls Mary ‘the Mother of the King of the universe,’ and the ‘Virgin Mother who brought forth the King of the whole world,’ Pope Pius XII, Ad Caeli Reginam, October 11, 1954 [S. Gregorius Naz., Poemata dogmatica, XVIII, v. 58; PG XXXVII, 485.] while Prudentius asserts that the Mother marvels ‘that she has brought forth God as man, and even as Supreme King.’[Prudentius, Dittochaeum, XXVII: PL LX, 102 A.]”
