Introduction, by the American Editor.
[1971] “The time.”
[1972] “The limit.”
[1973] Invenisti.
[1974] Fixisti, “determined.”
[1975] Fossam.
[1976] Statio, “resting-place.”
[1977] Dum convenero.
[1978] This is the rendering of Oehler’s text, “et velut si nusquam. There are other readings of this obscure passage, of which as we add the two most intelligible. The Codex Agobardinus has, “et velim si nunquam;” that is, “and I would that I were nowhere,” with no fixed belief—in such wise as never to have had the truth; not, as must now be, to have forfeited it. (Dodgson). This seems far-fetched, and inferior to the reading of Pamelius and his mss.: “et velint me sic esse nusquam;”—or (as Semler puts it) “velint sic nusquam;” i.e., “and they (the heretics) would wish me to be nowhere”—without the fixed faith of the Catholic. This makes good sense. [Semler is here mentioned, and if anybody wishes to understand what sort of editor he was, he may be greatly amused by Kaye’s examination of some of his positions, pp. 64–84. Elucidation II.]
[1979] Oportet.
[1980] Necesse est. Observe these degrees of obligation.
[1981] Quamvis et errare delinquere est.

[1990] Although Tertullian calls her “anus,” St. Luke’s word is γυνή not γραῦς.
[1991] Instrui potest.
