It may be sharp on one side only, for on one of the two sides is there a keen edge to this speech of ours. But indeed it is one that is sharp on both sides, for on both sides is there a keen edge to this speech of curs, inasmuch as it speaks both what is divine and what is human, and both truth and untruth: therefore it is one that is sharp on both sides.
