6. If anyone says that the glorious, ever-Virgin Mary is not the Mother of God in a true sense, but only by a misuse of language; or that she is Mother of God in a transferred sense as though a mere man were born of her and not the divine Word Incarnate; but that, according to them, the birth of the man is to be attributed to the divine Word because He was joined to the man at his birth; and if he makes the slanderous assertion that it was in this blasphemous sense, thought up by Theodore, that the holy Council of Chalcedon said the Virgin was Mother of God; or if anyone calls her mother of man or mother of Christ as if Christ were not God, and does not admit that in the proper sense and in all truth she is Mother of God, because the divine Word who was born of the Father before time took flesh of her in this last age, and that the holy Council of Chalcedon also confessed her to be Mother of God in this holy sense: let such a one be anathema.
