Why this is in the register

Migne's Fulgentius volume lists 'De Trinitate' at Patrologia Latina 65, 497, between the letters and the answer to the Arian Fastidiosus, and the editor's preface describes it as the book 'de Trinitate ad Felicem notarium' occasioned by Felix's request (https://archive.org/details/patrologiaecur65mign). A library search for it returns only the Latin text in the Library of Latin Texts and the Corpus Christianorum edition of the Opera (Series Latina 91-91A, 1968), recorded with French alongside the Latin, but nothing translating it into English (https://hollis.harvard.edu/discovery/search?query=any,contains,Fulgentius%20Trinitate%20Felicem&tab=Everything&search_scope=MyInst_and_CI&vid=01HVD_INST:HVD2&offset=0 The two English Fulgentius volumes (Fathers of the Church 95 and 126) do not include it (https://hollis.harvard.edu/discovery/search?query=any,contains,Fulgentius%20selected%20works%20Fathers%20of%20the%20Church&tab=Everything&search_scope=MyInst_and_CI&vid=01HVD_INST:HVD2&offset=0 No English translation was located.

This is Fulgentius's systematic treatment of the Trinity, written at the request of a Roman notary and circulated widely in the Latin west, where it served as a short Augustinian summa for readers who could not manage De Trinitate. Without a translation, Fulgentius's dogmatic theology is visible in English only through the anti-Pelagian and anti-Arian selections.
