Direct quotation
Against Julian 3.25.58
He declares that the infants who have filled the world, for whom Christ died, are the devil’s work, born from a disease, and guilty from their beginning.
Latin source witness
Latin eos parvulos qui mundum impleverunt, pro quibus Christus mortuus est, diaboli opus, et de morbo natos, et ab exordio reos definiam
About this text Julian wrote in the early 400s, in the fight over Pelagius. This is later than the first three centuries of the church.
Earlier four-book work to Turbantius, surviving as excerpts arranged by Augustine’s witness. Latin source text is on each section when recovered.
English follows Julian’s words as Augustine excerpts them in Against Julian. This is not a recovered complete To Turbantius.
