Nicene and Post-Nicene Fathers, Series 2, Vol. 10 (Ambrose: Select Works and Letters)

45. To Sabinus, Bishop of Placentia, in answer to questions concerning Paradise.
46. To the same, on the subject of an Apollinarian heretic.
47–49. To the same, regarding books and private matters.
50. To Chromatius, probably Bishop of Aquileia, explaining how evil men may be used to utter true prophecies.
51. To Theodosius, after the massacre at Thessalonica. Written in A.D. 390.
52. A private letter to Titianus.
53. To Theodosius, to express the sorrow of St. Ambrose at the death of Valentinian II, slain by Arbogastes.
54, 55. To Eusebius—not, it would seem, the Bishop of Bologna who was present at the Council of Aquileia, but rather a lay friend to whom St. Ambrose wrote his treatise on the training of a virgin. Probably written in A.D. 392 or 393.
56. To Theophilus. The troubles of the church of Antioch through the Meletian schism might have terminated on the death of Paulinus, had he not on his deathbed consecrated Evagrius as his successor in violation of the canons. Theodosius, being pressed by the Western bishops, summoned a council at Capua, commanding Flavian to attend, a command he disobeyed. The council referred the matter to Theophilus of Alexandria and the bishops of Egypt. However, as Theophilus informed St. Ambrose, Flavian refused to submit to their decision. This is St. Ambrose's reply, advising Theophilus to summon Flavian once more and communicate the result to Pope Siricius. The letter was written at the end of A.D. 391 or the beginning of 392.
57. To Eugenius the usurper; St. Ambrose had left Milan to avoid him and had sent no reply to his letters. Written in A.D. 393.
58. To Sabinus, Bishop, on the resolution of Paulinus and Therasia to forsake the world. Written probably in A.D. 393.
59. To Severus, Bishop probably of Naples, telling him of James, a Persian priest, who had resolved to retire from the world into Campania, and contrasting this with his own troubles owing to the invasion of Eugenius. A.D. 393 or 394.
60. To Paternus, against a proposed incestuous marriage.
61. To Theodosius, after his victory over Eugenius. Written in A.D. 394.
62. To the same, urging him to be merciful to the followers of Eugenius. Written in the same year.
63. To the Church at Vercellæ.
