[9010] [Routh, Reliquiæ, Vol. I. p. 358.]
[9011] Republished, Oxford, 1838.
[9012] See Opp. Tom. xi. p. 657. Ed. Migne.
[9013] [Written possibly as late as a.d. 202; and is credited by Neander and Kaye, with Catholic Orthodoxy.]
Chapter I.—Of Patience Generally; And Tertullian’s Own Unworthiness to Treat of It.
[9014] “Nullius boni;” compare Rom. vii. 18.
[9015] [Elucidation I.]
[9016] i.e. who are strangers to it.
[9017] Or, “striving after.”
[9018] Or, “heathendom”—sæculi.
[9019] Sæculo.
Chapter II.—God Himself an Example of Patience.
[9020] i.e. us Christians.
[9021] i.e. cynical = κυνικός = doglike. But Tertullian appears to use “caninæ” purposely, and I have therefore retained it rather than substitute (as Mr. Dodgson does) “cynical.”
[9022] i.e. the affectation is modelled by insensibility.
[9023] See Ps. lxxiv. 23 in A.V. It is Ps. lxxiii. in the LXX.

[9025] Sæculo.
Chapter III.—Jesus Christ in His Incarnation and Work a More Imitable Example Thereof.
[9026] So Mr. Dodgson; and La Cerda, as quoted by Oehler. See Ps. cxxxi. 1 in LXX., where it is Ps. cxxx.
[9028] I have followed Oehler’s reading of this very difficult and much disputed passage. For the expression, “having been trained,” etc., compare Heb. v. 8.
[9030] Or, “yet had there been need of contumelies likewise for the undergoing of death?”
