There were five books on agriculture, Col., I. i. 14; and, if he is the Celsus mentioned by the scholiast to Juv., vi. 245, there were seven books on rhetoric (“Celso: oratori illius temporis qui septem libros Institutionum scriptos reliquit”). His work on philosophy was in six books, Augustin., De haeresibus (Migne, Patrolog., tom. xlii., 1861, p. 23), “opiniones omnium philosophorum ... sex non paruis uoluminibus quidam Celsus absoluit.”
