Note 301 — Chapter III · THE ORIGIN OF GNOSTICISM
Reading edition
Scott in the Heart of Midlothian quotes the first story, I think, from Peter Walker, but I have not been able to find the passage. For Ignatius Loyola, see Böhmer, Les Jésuites, French ed. 1910, p. 10. Cf. Alphandéry, R.H.R. 1911, p. 110.
