Dear Colleagues,

I am trying to locate a source in Augustine's Writings, quoted by John
Donne in his sermon on Psalm 32:9 ("Be not as the Horse, or the Mule, who
have no understanding").

Donne writes in his sermon:  "And Saint Augustine carries these two
qualities farre; He thinks that in this fierceness of the Horse, the
Gentiles are represented, which ran farre from the knowledge of
Christianity; And by the lazinesse of the Mule, the Jews, who came nothing
so fast, s they were invited by their former helps, to the imbracing
thereof."

I have checked, as best as I could, Augustine's _Confessions_ and
_Expositions on Psalms_ but could not locate it.

Does anyone recognize this?

Much thanks, Chanita
