Poking around in the Patrologia Latina (Chadwyck-Healey) didn't get much
forwarder. Only a verbal reminiscence for dulcius caritate:

Vol. 21: Auctor incertus (Rufinus Aquileiensis?): COMMENTARIUS IN LXXV
PSALMOS. (C,G) 1322Kb PSALMUS LXVII. 49Kb ...Et apte ait, In dulcedine
tua. Quid enim (Ex Aug.) dulcius caritate? Opus autem gratiae non ex
timore poenae perficitur,...

Nothing on "repugnans tibi" "ausus sum quaerere" "certius spe" "stultior
me"

Would anyone be familiar with the source of this quote? A faculty member
asked at the library and we went through the usual sources.
"Old eyes why do you betray me? Why do you cheat me of my last sight
of my splendid son?" We have the book it was used in, but he things
this is an allusion to something earlier. thanks for your help.
