"I deny Him!"
Above the head of the apparition suddenly glittered the morning star—the star of dawn—and the Angel repeated—
"Julian, deny the Galilean in my name!"
A third time the Angel repeated,—and his voice sounded exultant and close by: "Renounce Him!"
And Julian answered—
"I renounce Him!"
The Angel said—
"Thou mayest approach."
"Who art thou?"
"I am Lucifer, I am Light, I am the East, I am the Morning Star!"
