At the conclusion of the creation, You gave direction to Your Wisdom, and formed a rational living creature, as the citizen of the world, saying, Let us make Adam after our image, and after our likeness. And You have exhibited him as the cosmos of the cosmos, and formed him a body out of the four elements, those primary bodies. But You have prepared a soul out of nothing, and have bestowed upon him his five senses, and set over his sensations a mind, as the conductor of the soul.
-Apostolic Constitutions, 4th century
