Par pompu runājot.

Tertullian, De corona 3 A.D. 201?

"To deal with this matter briefly, I shall begin with baptism. When we are going to enter the water, but a little before, in the presence of the congregation and under the hand of the president, we solemnly profess that we disown the devil, and his pomp, and his angels. Hereupon we are thrice immersed, making a somewhat ampler pledge than the Lord has appointed in the Gospel."

Denique ut a baptismate ingrediar, aquam adituri, ibidem, sed et aliquanto prius in ecclesia sub antistitis manu contestamur, nos renuntiare diabolo et pompae et angelis eius. Dehinc ter mergitamur amplius aliquid respondentes quam dominus in evangelio determinavit.


The Apostolical Constitutions (Chapter XLI) 375 - 390 A.D
Let, therefore, the candidate for baptism declare, in his renunciation: The renunciation of the adversary, and the dedication to the Christ of God I renounce Satan, and his works, and his pomps, and his worship, and his angels, and his inventions, and all things that are under him.

-----------------------
For the changing meaning of the word pompa in a liturgical context:
By the pomps of the devil appear to have been meant the shows and games of heathen idolatry. And even after idolatry was in a great measure destroyed, and the public games and shows in honor of the gods were discontinued, the expression "pomps" was still used in the form of renunciation to eradicate the vanity, lewdness, and profaneness which so extensively prevailed.
