The Battle

“Now that the combat of the passion was over, and the bloody dragon and raging lion thought that he had secured a victory by killing the Lamb, the power of the divinity began to shine forth in his soul as it descended into hell.” -Bonaventure

I love the battle imagery that Bonaventure uses here. It is so true, it was a battle. And just as the witch thought that the battle was one-sided and that Aslan was defeated, the evil one was mistaken in the outcome of the war. For his greatest defeat was yet to come.
