What wonder is it then, if, when I draw in\r\nthe grain that has been shaken forth from the threshing-floor\r\nof the Lord, together with the soil and chaff, I suffer injury from\r\nthe dust that rebounds against me; or that, when I am diligently\r\nseeking after the lost sheep of my Lord, I am torn by\r\nthe briars of thorny tongues? I entreat you, lay aside for a\r\ntime all considerations of party feeling, and judge with some\r\ndegree of fairness between Petilianus and myself. I am desirous\r\nthat you should be acquainted with the cause of the\r\nChurch; he, that you should be familiar with mine. For what\r\nother reason than because he dares not bid you disbelieve my\r\nwitnesses, whom I am constantly citing in the cause of the\r\nChurch,—for they are prophets and apostles, and Christ Himself,\r\nthe Lord of prophets and apostles,—whereas you easily\r\ngive him credit in whatever he may choose to say concerning\r\nme, a man against a man, and one, moreover, of your own\r\nparty against a stranger to you? Petilianus therefore reigns\r\nsupreme. Whenever he aims any abuse at me, of whatever\r\ncharacter it may be, you all applaud and shout assent. This<span class=\"pagenum\"><a id=\"Page_419\">[Pg 419]</a></span>\r\ncause he has found wherein the victory is possible for him,\r\nbut only with you for judges. He will seek for neither proof\r\nnor witness; for all that he has to prove in his words is this,\r\nthat he lavishes most copious abuse on one whom you most\r\ncordially hate. For whereas, when the testimony of divine\r\nScripture is quoted in such abundance and in such express\r\nterms in favour of the Catholic Church, he remains silent\r\namidst your grief, he has chosen for himself a subject on\r\nwhich he may speak amidst applause from you; and though\r\nreally conquered, yet, pretending that he stands unmoved, he\r\nmay make statements concerning me like this, and even worse\r\nthan this. It is enough for me,<a id=\"FNanchor_1071_1071\"></a><a class=\"fnanchor pginternal\" href=\"#Footnote_1071_1071\">[1071]</a> in respect of the cause which\r\nI am now pleading, that whatsoever I may be found to be, yet\r\nthe Church for which I speak is unconquered.</p>","headings":["WRITINGS IN CONNECTION WITH THE DONATIST CONTROVERSY.","BOOK THIRD."],"marker_anchor":null,"paragraph_id":"pg45843-paragraph-689"}],"canonical_references":[],"date_end":null,"date_start":null,"deduplication_fingerprint":"e9e891a8699df680b61b8cdbe1b03a8aa58cc86f1ac425449c0f47946c6e0ca6","edition_title":"Writings in Connection with the Donatist Controversy","edition_translators":["John Richard King"],"edition_year":1872,"explicit_reference_candidates":[],"headings":[],"id":"pg45843-Footnote_1071_1071","license_url":"https://www.gutenberg.org/policy/license.html","public_import_allowed":false,"record_kind":"original-editor-translator-note","review_required":["work and recension attribution","original-work chronology","Bible reference numbering and citation kind","English edition rights and attribution"],"review_status":"needs_review","rights_evidence":"Provider catalog reports public domain in the USA.
