Dear sapientes,
I am finishing up an annotated transription of James of Vitry's sermons to
hospitallers for an article and am having trouble identifying two
references, despite consulting the usual databases. One is a supposed
quote from Seneca, which begins "Quantum addis..." Is there a classical
equivalent of the PL or CETEDOC which would allow me to trace this quote?
The other is an allusion to the life of St. Anthony, where lions assist
him in burying the hermit Zozimas and St. Mary of Egypt. Despite
consulting Athanasius' life of St. Anthony, I found no reference to it. I
suspect that it may be in the Lives of the Desert Fathers, but am unsure
what is the standard edition to consult.
Any help would be greatly appreciated and formally acknowledged!
