Introductory Notice to The Recognitions of Clement.
[669] [The remaining chapters of this book hare no exact parallel in the Homilies.—R.]
[670] That is, have no visible or sensible species, according to the Platonic theory of perception.
Chapter LXXI.—Separation from the Unclean.
[671] [Comp. book i. 19, vii. 29; Homilies I. 22, XIII. 4.—R.]
[673] [On the demonology of this work see book iv. 15–19; comp. Homily IX. 8–22.—R.]

Chapter I.—Pearls Before Swine.
Chapter XII.—Second Day’s Discussion.
[676] Chaps ii.–xii. are wanting in the mss. of best authority; and it seems to us indisputable that they form no part of the original work. For this reason, and because we have found them utterly untranslatable, we have omitted them.

Chapter XIII.—Simon a Seducer.

Chapter XX.—Common Principles.
Chapter XXI.—Freedom of the Will.
[682] [Comp. Homilies XI. 8, XIX. 15. But in the Recognitions this topic is more frequently treated. See chap. 26, and elsewhere.—R.]
Chapter XXIV.—God the Author of Good, Not of Evil.
[683] [Comp. Homily XIX. 12. The argument here is far more philosophical.—R.]
Chapter XXVI.—No Goodness Without Liberty.
[684] [Comp. Homily XIX. 15.—R.]
Chapter XXVII.—The Visible Heaven: Why Made.
Chapter XXIX.—Corruptible and Temporary Things Made by the Incorruptible and Eternal.
