Refutation of All Heresies
St Hippolytus of Rome, ANF 5
Book 5, 13. The Peratic Heresy Not Generally Known
But since I consider that I have plainly explained the Peratic heresy, and by many (arguments) have rendered evident (a system that hitherto) has always escaped notice, and is altogether1 a tissue of fable, and one that disguises its own peculiar venom, it seems expedient to advance no further statement beyond those already put forward; for the opinions propounded by (the heretics) themselves are sufficient for their own condemnation.
Notes
- πανταπασι: some read παντα πασι. Cruice suggests πᾶσιν ἐπιτιθειμένην, i.e., one that plots a against all.
