Notes:

*The passage comes from the Vita Antonii (See @Fontes Anglo-Saxonici). *It continues: "he advanced to better things and patiently bore the holy labour for, by long-standing zeal for voluntary bond-service in the work of God and by custom, it had become part of his nature. He was able to endure such fastings and such watchings that his strength silenced unbelief. He very often spent the whole night in prayer, sometimes even enduring a second and a third night, and refreshed himself only on the fourth night".
