Don't know who Anonymous 15th C was. But they were content with wonder, paradox, mystery. Some facts have no known precedent. Advent by definition is a first, and last.
Wit Wonders
A God and yet a man,
A maid and yet a mother:
Wit wonders what wit can
Conceive this or the other.
A God and can he die?
A dead man can he live?
What wit can well reply?
What reason reason give?
God, Truth itself doth teach it.
Man’s wit sinks too far under
By reason’s power to reach it:
Believe and leave to wonder.
(Anonymous – 15th C)
