Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

The seven thunders uttering their voices signify, the Holy Spirit
of sevenfold power, who through the prophets announced all things
to come, and by His voice John gave his testimony in the world; but
because he says that he was about to write the things which the
thunders had uttered, that is, whatever things had been obscure in
the announcements of the Old Testament; he is forbidden to write
them, but he was charged to leave them sealed, because he is an
apostle, nor was it fitting that the grace of the subsequent stage
should be given in the first.

Marius Victorinus, a contemporary of St. Ambrose and one who had
considerable influence on St. Augustine-he has been styled "an
Augustine before Augustine"-is an important Fourth-Century
Neoplatonist. Before his conversion to Christianity Marius
Victorinus wrote commentaries on works of Cicero and translated
Aristotle's tracts on logic and some Neoplatonic books into Latin.
After his conversion, probably A.D. 354, he turned his vast
learning to the composition of theological treatises in refutation
of Arianism and the errors of Ursacius and Valens expressed in the
Creed of Sirminum (357) as well as those of Basil of Ancyra and of
the Homoeans in the credos of Sirmium and Rimini in 359. The
Theological Treatises on the Trinity contain the following: two
letters, one from Candidus the Arian to the Rhetor Marius
Victrorinus and the addressee's reply. Both documents are quite
probably literary devices helping to bring into sharp focus the
matters under discussion. These are followed by four books Against
Arius, a short treatise demonstrating the necessity of accepting
the term homoousios (of the same substance), and three Hymns,
mostly in strophic structure, addressed to the Trinity and
explaining the names and functions of the divine Persons in
salvation history. In the Treatises Marius Victorinus adopts, in
addition to the then traditional arguments, Neoplatonic
concepts-adapted probably from Porphyry-to present a systematic
explanation of the Trinity. Posthumous influences of the Treatises
are discernible in works of Alcuin. The present translation is made
from the latest critical text and has profited greatly from the
vast erudition of Pierre Henry and Paul Hadot.
