6. A brief exposition, or an Enchiridion
upon the whole Book of Psalms: also larger
explanations thereupon at the request of Am∣brose.

fifty Tracts upon the Psalms; which equals
the number of them.

9. Ten Books of Commentaries upon the
Canticles: five whereof he wrote at Athens; the
other five returning from Cesarea. A worthy
Work requiring much time, labour and cost
to translate, for which cause Ierom omitted
it, and would not attempt or adventure upon

magnificently and clearly, (saith Ierom) that as
in the rest he overcame all others, so in this he
overcame himself.
10. Annotations upon the whole Prophesie

together with two Books upon the
thirtieth Chapter.
11. A huge number of Homilies upon Ie∣remy,
the most whereof are lost.
12. Upon the Lamentations nine Tomes:
Of which (saith Eusebius) we have seen
five.
