Chapter IX.&#8212;Tatian.

Tatian, however, although being himself a disciple of Justinus the Martyr, did not entertain similar opinions with his master. But he attempted (to establish) certain novel (tenets), and affirmed that there existed certain invisible &#198;ons. And he framed a legendary account (of them), similarly to those (spoken of) by Valentinus. And similarly with Marcion, he asserts that marriage is destruction.&#160; But he alleges that Adam is not saved on account of his having been the author of disobedience. And so far for the doctrines of Tatian.
