Epistola ad Augustinum

a Manichaean, known to us only as the author of a letter addressed to Augustine, in which he gently upbraids him for having deserted the sect to which he was once attached, and urges him in the most earnest and flattering language to return.

Editions

This Epistola ad Augustinum, which is totally destitute of merit, together with the reply Contra Secundinum Manichaeum, is given in the works of the bishop of Hippo, in the eighth volume of the Benedictine edition.
