How are the 12 Anathemas of St. Cyril against Nestorius supposed to be read?

Upvote:8

It would seem that only the first paragraph was Cyril's side of the argument. Here's another copy of the text:

  1. If anyone does not confess that Emmanuel is God in truth, and therefore that the holy virgin is the mother of God (for she bore in a fleshly way the Word of God become flesh, let him be anathema.

It links to a copy on the CCEL. The bit labeled as Nestorius: is included in a "Notes" section. The scan of that page makes the situation slightly more clear.
