Answer to the Letters of Petilian, the Donatist

Contents (5 chapters)

1. 1. Title Page.
2. 2. Preface.
3. 3. Written in the form of a letter addressed to the Catholics, in which the first portion of the letter which Petilian had written to his adherents is examined and refuted.
4. 4. In which Augustin replies to all the several statements in the letter of Petilianus, as though disputing with an adversary face to face.
5. 5. In this book Augustin refutes the second letter which Petilianus wrote to him after having seen the first of Augustin’s earlier books.  This letter had been full of violent language; and Augustin rather shows that the arguments of Petilianus had been deficient and irrelevant, than brings forward arguments in support of his own statements.
