[Footnote 6: Those who are curious of this heterodox
library, may consult the researches of Beausobre, (Hist.
Critique du Manicheisme, tom. i. p. 305 - 437.) Even in
Africa, St. Austin could describe the Manichaean books, tam
multi, tam grandes, tam pretiosi codices, (contra Faust.
xiii. 14;) but he adds, without pity, Incendite omnes illas
membranas: and his advice had been rigorously followed.]
