...summer of 431 the council, satisfied that Nestorius was a rank heretic, went home. Heretic Nestorius died in misery in Egypt, "his tongue devoured by worms" (presumably cancer of the tongue); his adherents dwindled to a few thousand in Turkey and Persia. Outcome of Ephesus was an explicit statement of an old belief. Mary was, and is, the Mother of God, because she is Mother of Christ, who combines two natures, one Human, one Divine. In Ephesus that day the mob shouted...
...sojourn at an elaborate research institute-where Author Lewis reverted to his familiar flair for making fools of characters who were fools to begin with-is telescoped a little, but the magnificent climax-when Arrowsmith goes to the West Indies to fight bubonic plague-is more impressive, because more explicit, in pictures than in print.
