But I am speaking of the virtues we acquire through the use of fully developed reason.Since it was necessary to stress this here, as often elsewhere, I now urge the reader to attend to what follows.The reader will see that advocates of inherited sin differ from Manichaeans in nothing, offering against us as arguments only what is contained in their books.I already demonstrated this in the fourth book of my first work.
Sed de illis ego virtutibus dico, quas usu iam perfectae rationis adipiscimur. Ac per hoc, quia id etiam hic sicut frequenter inculcari nobis fuit necesse, ad ea, quae inferimus, ut sit attentus lector, admoneo; videbit enim ita in nullo Traducianos differre a Manichaeis, ut non alia nobis obiciant argumentorum vice, quam quae in illorum libris tenentur. Feci id quidem etiam in primi operis mei libro quarto.
