Enarrationes in psalmos 37,15
Quote 11 18
The light of Adam’s eyes left him, for God himself was the light of Adam’s eyes; and after offending God he fled into the shadow, and hid among the trees of paradise. He was afraid of God’s countenance, so he sought the shade of the trees. There in the wood he no longer had that light for his eyes which until now had always brought him joy.
