220 TREATISES ATTRIBUTED TO CYPRIAN. The treatisesOn the Disciplineand Benefitof Chastity and the Exhortation to Repentance are generallyplaced under the Opusculadubia. The former was firsteditedby Baluzius,with the title"Epistle of an Unknown Author." Its Cyprianic authorshipwas maintained by Bellarmin, Pamelius,and others; whileErasmus, Tillemont,and others have rejectedit as spurious. The second treatisewas first publishedby Joannes Chrysostomus Trombellius in 1751, who regardeditas a genuine work of Cyprian's. And in deed,as faras internalevidencegoes,the treatise,consisting merely of a collectionof quotationsfrom Scripture,in the manner of the TestimoniesagainsttheJews,may probablybe attributedto him with as much reasonas the Testimonies. It is,however,rightto add, that ProfessorBlunt quotes from the Treatiseon the Glory of Martyrdom as being Cyprian's,withoutreferringto any doubtson the subject.
