Augustine long since, and Alipius his companion, as Hierome testifieth in his Epistle dated unto them, hath taken much pains and travel in confuting the heresy of the Pelagians, and hath written thirty whole books distinguished by diverse titles, besides certain Epistles in which of purpose he beateth down this Pelagian outrage. Prosper reporteth of above three hundred who wrote against that heresy. Augustine himself witnesseth that it was condemned in five several Councils in Africa. There is a notable tract of Fulgentius his first book unto Monimus extant touching the twofold predestination of GOD, the one of the good unto glory; the other of the evil unto punishment. Maxentius also hath certain short Theses directed against these Pelegianst and that golden book of Luther of MANS SLAVISH WILL against that half-Pelagian declamation of Erasmus is every where common and obvious. Lastly, there are diverse sound disputations of BRENTIVS, HESHVSIVS, SCHNEPFFIVS, and especially HEREBRAND touching this matter. And doeth the cursed Apostate look then that some one of us should stop his blasphemous mou•h? Let him over-read these, and refute them: or if he be not able so to do, henceforth let him surcease his profaning Gods truth.
