Okay, I understand, I just think you could pretty much move into extensive reading much much sooner with no problems by just reading the vulgate or something if you're going into the Patristics as your first native works.

Also, Fr. Most's if you include year 2 and 3 of LBTNM really get you a ton of reading practice. The year 3 text is literally just augustine, cicero, and seneca.

Is it some meme where you are trying to do this without rereading any chapters or something? With rereading I really solidified by base in LBTNM and LLPSI much quicker and got into the vulgate at least sooner.
