Augustine reports that Julian accuses Zosimus, bishop of the Apostolic See, of betraying his position.

Latin

Quale est autem, quod beatae memoriae Zosimum Apostolicae Sedis episcopum, ut in tua pravitate persistas, praevaricationis accusas? Qui non recessit a suo praecessore Innocentio, quem tu nominare timuisti; sed maluisti Zosimum, quia egit primitus lenius cum Caelestio: quoniam se in his sensibus vestris si quid displiceret, paratum esse dixerat corrigi, et Innocentii litteris consensurum esse promiserat.
