Of Holy Virginity.

[De Virginitate.]

Translated by Rev. C. I. Cornish, M.A., of Exeter College, Oxford

Retr. ii. 23. "After I had written on the Good of Marriage,' it was expected that I should write on Holy Virginity; and I did not delay to do so: and that it is God's gift, and how great a gift, and with what humility to be guarded, so far as I was able I set forth in one volume. This book begins," &c.
