of 1853.
[369:2] Wordsworth has remarked that in the "Philosophumena" of
Hippolytus we have some of the lost text of Irenaeus. St Hippolytus, p.
15.
[369:3] Such is the testimony of Jerome. See Cave's "Life of Irenaeus."
[369:4] Euseb. "Hist." iii. 39.
[369:5] Irenaeus adopted the millenarianism of Papias.
[370:1] This is evident from his own statements. See his "Apology," c.
18, and "De Spectaculis," c. 19. The references to Tertullian in this
work are either to the edition of Oehler of 1853, or to that of
Rigaltius of 1675.
[370:2] According to some the population of Carthage at this time
amounted to hundreds of thousands. "The intercourse between Carthage and
Rome, on account of the corn trade alone, was probably more regular and
rapid than with any other part of the Empire."--_Milman's Latin
Christianity_, i. p. 47.
[370:3] See Euseb. ii. 2, 25.
[370:4] Such is the testimony of Jerome, who asserts farther that the
treatment he received from the clergy of Rome induced him to leave that
city.
[370:5] Such as the tracts "De Pallio" and "De Jejuniis."
[371:1] As a choice specimen of his vituperative ability his
denunciation of Marcion may be quoted--"Sed nihil tam barbarum ac triste
apud Pontum quam quod illic Marcion natus est, Scythia tetrior,
Hamaxobio instabilior, Massageta inhumanior, Amazona audacior, nubilo
obscurior, hieme frigidior, gelu fragilior, Istro fallacior, Caucaso
abruptior."--_Adversus Marcionem_, lib. i. c. 1.
[371:2] Victor of Rome, who was contemporary with Tertullian, is said to
have written in Latin, but the extant letters ascribed to him are
considered spurious.
[372:1] Such, according to Jerome, was the practice of Cyprian.
[372:2] He is supposed to have died at an advanced age, but the date of
his demise cannot be accurately determined. Most of his works were
written between A.D. 194 and A.D. 217.
[372:3] The part of the work "Adversus Judaeos," from the beginning of
the ninth chapter, is taken chiefly from the third book of the Treatise
against Marcion, and has apparently been added by another hand.

[374:2] "Stromata," book v.
[374:3] See Kaye's "Clement of Alexandria," p. 378.
[374:4] Period II. sec. i. chap. v. p. 344.
[375:1] Prudentius. See Wordsworth's "Hippolytus," p. 106-112.
[377:1] He had acted literally as described, Matt, xix. 12.
