The lover of truth quotes the Greek as if it was well known. Although it seems to be misquoted, there are indeed many passages from the fathers that can be used in modern contexts to bolster arguments. If it was expected to be popular, it is unlikely not to have been scanned already.
Anyway, it's too late to ask the authour. All we can do is speculate.
