27. Such at least is the account of Victor Vivensis (de
Persecut. Vandal. 1. i. c. 3); though Gennadius seems to
doubt whether any person had read, or even collected, all
the works of St. Augustin (see Hieronym. Opera, tom. i. p.
319, in Catalog. Scriptor. Eccles.). They have been
repeatedly printed; and Dupin (Bibliotheque Eccles. tom.
iii. p. 158-257) has given a large and satisfactory abstract
of them as they stand in the last edition of the
Benedictines. My personal acquaintance with the bishop of
Hippo does not extend beyond the Confessions and the City of
God.
