The above is positively the sum Oi What we know of Cle-moncs history. His three great works, The Exhortation to the mathen λόγος προτροχροιμὸς προς EVληνας), The I tructor, or Hed gogua παιδαγωγος), The Miscellantes, or Stromata Στρωματεῖς , are among the most Valuabie rematas os Christianantiqui , and the largest that belong to that early period.
