Julian excerpts
Against Julian 6.15.47
No one hates his own flesh. (Ephesians 5:29)
Augustine reports that Julian nevertheless teaches that the flesh should be broken down by strict discipline. He quotes Julian’s phrases: ‘bruising the body,’ ‘bodily filth,’ and ‘breaking down the flesh.’
Latin
Quod carnem suam nullus oderit
livore corporis, paedore membrorum, contritione carnis
