De Oratione Tertullian 1 citation
The vision of the martyrs' souls under the altar crying for vengeance directly echoes Revelation and is invoked as authoritative scripture.
And so, if the representation of the Lord's kingdom has reference to the will of God and to our own expectancy, how is it that some demand a certain prolonging of things in the world, when the kingdom of God, for whose coming we pray, tends toward the consummation of the world?
de oratione ¶
The harvest records where a citation is made: the paragraph in the citing book, and the chapter that paragraph stands in. It does not record which page of this text is meant. Where the citing text names a locus, you will find it in the quotation.

- beside a chapter, the passages anchored there. A single citation can quote more than one passage, which is why a row carries two figures: the citations the harvest recorded, and the passages its chapters add up to.
Every row here is derived from the harvest, not curated: the citation ledger holds the whole of it, and the atlas states the method.
