1339The assertion that you had only two days for your answer is a fiction. 1340Your translation, contrariwise to my Commentaries, vouches for the soundness of Origen. 1341You try to shield Origen by falsely attributing the Apology for him to Pamphilus. 1343In my Commentaries my quotation of opposite opinions shows that neither is mine. 1344Had you translated honestly, you would not have had Origen's heresies imputed to you. 1346You say the Bishops of Italy accept your views on the Resurrection. I doubt it. 1347You rashly say that you will agree to whatever Theophilus lays down. You have to consider your friendship for Isidore now his enemy. 1348You speak of the Egyptian Bishop Paul. We received him, though an Origenist, as a stranger; and he has united himself to the orthodox faith. Not only Theophilus but the Emperors condemn Origen. 1350You speak of the Egyptian Bishop Paul.

Not only Theophilus but the Emperors condemn Origen. 1351Against Vigilantius I wrote only what was right. I knew who had stirred him up against me. 1352As to the letter of Pope Anastasius condemning you, you will find that it is genuine. 1353Siricius who is dead may have written in your favour; Anastasius who is living writes to the East against you. 1354My departure from Rome for the East had nothing blameable in it as you insinuate. 1355Epiphanius, it is true, gave you the kiss of peace; but he showed afterwards that he had come to distrust you. 1357When we parted as friends I believed you a true believer; no one was sent to Rome to injure you. 1358You swear that you did not write my pretended retractation. Your style betrays you, and I have given a full answer about my translations already. 1359You bid me beware of falsification and treachery. You warn me against yourself. 1360There is nothing inconsistent in praising a man for some things and blaming him in others. You have done it in my case. xxxi
