Germanus I (c. 634 – 733 or 740) was the Patriarch of Constantinople from 715 to 730. He is regarded as a saint, by both the Orthodox and Roman Catholic Churches, with a feast day of 12 May.[1] He had been ecumenically preceded by Patriarch John VI of Constantinople, and was succeeded in Orthodox rite by patriarch Constantine II of Constantinople.[2]

On the Divine Liturgy - Germanus of Constantinople

He takes the lance, cleanses it, then cutting the oblation in the form of a cross he says: “As a sheep led to the slaughter and as a lamb before its shearers is silent.” Having said this, he places the oblation on the holy discos, points over it, saying: “He does not open His mouth: in His humility His judgment was taken away. Who will recount His generation? For His life is taken up from the earth.” Having said these things, he takes the holy chalice and the deacon pours wine and water into it. Then the deacon says: “Blood and water poured from His side, and he who saw it has borne witness, and his witness is true.” After this, he places the holy chalice on the divine table and, pointing at the bread, the sacrified lamb, and the wine, the blood poured out, says: “There are three who bear witness: the Spirit, the water, and the blood, and the three are one,” (I In 5:8) now and ever and for the ages.

4. St. Gregory of Nazianzen, as cited by Germanus, of Constantinople, in the eighth century, thus alludes to the witness of the Trinity:—
(Greek)
"Statim ac illud unum cogito, trium luce circumdor: statim ac tria dividere vellem in illud unum attollor: sed re quis haec testimonia Trinitatis," etc
