Moreover, you make a charge against p. 526 yourself which has been brought by no one against you, and make excuses where no one has accused you. You say that you have read these and in my letter: \u201cI want to know who has given you leave when translating a book, to remove some things, change others, and again add others.\u201d And you go on to answer yourself, and to speak against me: \u201cI say this to you Who I pray, has given you leave, in your Commentaries, to put down some things out of Origen, some from Apollinarius, some of your own, instead of all from Origen or from yourself or from some other?\u201d All this while, while you are aiming at something different, you have been preferring a very strong charge against yourself; and you have forgotten the old proverb, that those who speak falsehood should have good memories. You say that I in my Commentaries have set down some things out of Origen, some from Apollinarius, some of my own. If then these things which I have set down under the names of others are the words of Apollinarius and of Origen; what is the meaning of the charge which you fasten upon me, that, when I say \u201cAnother says this,\u201d \u201cThe following is some one\u2019s conjecture,\u201d that \u201cother\u201d or \u201csome one\u201d means myself? Between Origen and Apollinarius there is a vast difference of interpretation, of style, and of doctrine. When I set down discrepant opinions on the same passage, am I to be supposed to accept both the contradictory views? But more of this hereafter.","title":"Nicene and Post-Nicene Fathers, Ser.
