Antiqua res est prænunciativa immolatio sanguinis, futuram
passionem mediatoris ab initio generis humani testificans:
hanc enim primus Abel obtulisse in sacris literis invenitur-
Sacrificium ergo, non solum cum justè imperat verus Deus,
sed etiam cum superbè exigit falsus deus, satis ostendit cui
debeatur. August. cont. Faust.Manich. lib.xxii. cap.17. Oper.
vol. vi. p. 145. Colon. Agrip. 1616.
