Direct quotation

Against Julian 2.10.37

“The common dregs of sedentary tradesmen,” “stirred up against us.”

“Soldiers”; “students in lecture halls”; “sailors, shopkeepers, fishmongers, cooks, butchers”; “young men who have broken away from the monks.”

“From a crowd of all sorts of clergy,” “because they cannot judge doctrines according to Aristotle’s categories.”

“We are denied an examination and a judgment by bishops.”
