The Life of S. Hilarion 7
7 PL 23, 32
7. So many were his temptations and so various the snares of demons night and day, that if I wished to relate them, a volume would not suffice. How often when he lay down did naked women appear to him, how often sumptuous feasts when he was hungry! Sometimes as he prayed a howling wolf sprang past or a snarling fox, and when he sang a gladiatorial show was before him, and a man newly slain would seem to fall at his feet and ask him for burial.
Multae sunt tentationes ejus, et die noctuque variae daemonum insidiae: quas si omnes narrare velim, modum excedam voluminis. Quoties illi nudae mulieres cubanti, quoties esurienti largissimae apparuere dapes? Interdum orantem lupus ululans, et vulpecula ganniens transilivit, psallentique gladiatorum pugna spectaculum praebuit: et unus quasi interfectus, et ante pedes ejus corruens, sepulturam rogavit.
