To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Such a doctrine appeared to him but a means of encourag- ing moral indolence — a means of excuse supplied to the hands of vicious men. The question which from the first had so occupied the profound mind of Au- gustin — the question concerning the origin of sin in man — could not be attended with so much difficulty to the more superficial mind of Pelagius. This was no enigma for him ; it seemed to him a thing per- fectly natural that there should be moral evil. The necessary condition to the exi...stence of moral good is the possibility of evil. Evil and good are to be de- rived alike from the free-will, which either yields to the seductions of sense, or overcomes them." At Rome Pelagius became acquainted with Celes- tius, who, being of a kindred spirit with himself, renounced his profession as an advocate and em- braced the monastic life, desirous of devoting him- self to a strict observance of all the precepts and counsels of Christ. In A. D. 411 the two friends left Rome in company, and passed to Africa, where they took up their abode at Carthage.
