The cry of Manicheism was sure to rally defenders round the standard of orthodoxy. The poor sufferers, cruelly executed at Orleans in the Xlth century, were murdered under the plea of their profession of Manicheism. The alarm was spread against the rising sect of the Albigenses of Thou- louse, in the following century, on the same ground^. z Note M. a The Pelagians seem to have retorted the charge of Ma- nicheism on the Orthodox : — Catholicos Manichseorum nomine criminantur. — Contr. Dms Epist.... Pelag. Ad Bonifac. Lib. Ii. Augustin. Oper. Torn, vii. P. 286. — Note N. LECTURE IV. 183 Augustine naturally felt a strong antipathy to that error, from which he had, with many painful strug- gles, extricated himself.

Having once overcome this noxious prejudice of his early creed, he shrank from any approach to it af- terwards, as from an antichristian enemy.
