Thirty years later Ausonius was called by Emperor Valentinian to be tutor to Gratian, who subsequently as emperor conferred on him honours including a consulship in 379. In 383, after Gratian's murder, Ausonius retired to Bordeaux.

The second volume includes Eucharisticus ("Thanksgiving") by Paulinus Pellaeus.…
