   • 1880, Franciscus de Sales, translated by Franc Rup, Filotea ali navod k pobožnemu življenju. (Philothea oder Anleitung zum frommen Leben. In das Slovenische übers. von Franz Rup.)‎^[1], page 123:

     Zatorej občuduje sv. Avguštin toliko čistost svojega ljubljenega Alipija; zakaj ta je sovražil mesene sladi, in si je spravil je popolnoma iz misli, čeravno mu v njegovi mladosti niso ostale neznane.

     Because of this, st. Augustine admires such purity of his beloved Alipi because he hated voluptuous lust, and he completely forgot about them, however, they did not stay foreign to him in his childhood.
