A., Vicar of Cranbrook in the Diocese of Canterbury, Vol. 2 It must be owned, this gentleman gives but a very im perfect account of his discovery of this and the other three fragments, which he has published, Of this very ancient Father; he only tells his reader, that they were taken out of certain ancient books in the royal library at Turin, which contained extracts from the Fathers 3 but he does not so much as give an inquisitive reader any directions where to find these frag ments, if he should have an opportunity of consulting the books from which they were transcribed. But I shall not enter into any dispute upon this head 3 if they are genuine, here is a new authority from the holy and apostolical Irenaeus for the doctrine of the Sacrifice Of the Eucharist 3 if they are not, yet we are sufficiently sure from the other printed works of this most ancient writer, that this was the doctrine and practice of the age in which he lived.2 Pet. Iii. 2. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at www.forgottenbooks.com This book is a reproduction of an important historical work.
