Many of those who use the phrase in this Trinitarian signification cite it in the form tres unum sunt, a direct translation of the Greek: ... Victricius of Rouen († c. 407) (De laude sanctorum 4),

Miseremini igitur, miseremini; habetis, quod ignoscatis, confitemur [Fidei confessionem edit Victricius ut mos erat tunc temporis propter Arianos nondum omnino eliminatos. Sic aliquando apud Paulinum.] Deum Patrem; confitemur Deum Filium, confitemur sanctum Spiritum Deum. Confitemur quia tres unum sunt. Unum dixi; quia ex uno sicut Filius de Patre, ita Pater in Filio; sanctus Spiritus vero de Patre et Filio. Ita et Pater et Filius in Spiritu sancto.

14 Clark, ‗Translating Relics: Victricius of Rouen and Fourth-Century Debate‘.; Clarke believes its survival is likely due to it being falsely attributed to Ambrose. It is conventionally dated to 396 because it mentions the relics of Nazarius, which were discovered in 395, and describes Ambrose, who died in 397, as still living.

Grantley is absurd with contradiction here again.

RGA p. 24-25
Many of those who use the phrase in this Trinitarian signification cite it in the form tres unum sunt, a direct translation of the Greek:, ... Victricius of Rouen († c. 407) (De laude sanctorum 4) ... It should be emphasised that none of these authors cite the comma, merely a Trinitarian interpretation of 1 Jn 5:8.

RGA p. 34-35
There is evidence that the phrase “[these] three are one” in one of its various forms—[hæc] tria (or [hi] tres) unum sunt (or unus [est] deus)—was used from an early period as a symbolum professing belief in the Trinity. For example, Victricius of Rouen († c. 407) writes in his work De laude sanctorum: “We confess God the Father, we confess God the Son, we confess God the Holy Spirit. We confess that the three are one.”40

40 Victricius Rotomagensis, De laude sanctorum 4, CCSL 64, 74: “Confitemur Deum Patrem, confitemur Deum Filium, confitemur Sanctum Spiritum Deum. Confitemur quia tres unum sunt.”

The Witness of God is Greater

Victricius Rothomagensis, Bishop of Rouen (c. 330 – c. 407 AD)

Saint Victricius (French: Victrice; Italian: Vittricio) also known as Victricius of Rouen (c. 330 – c. 407 AD) was a bishop of Rouen (393–407), missionary, and author. His feast day is August 7. Victricius was Gallic by birth, the son of a Roman legionnaire. He also became a soldier and was posted to various locations around Gaul.[1] However, when he became a Christian, he refused to remain in the army. He was flogged and sentenced to death, but managed to avoid execution. He proselytized amongst the tribes of Flanders, Hainault, and Brabant. He became bishop of Rouen around 386 or 393. In 396, Ambrose of Milan sent Victricius (as well as Paulinus of Nola and others) some relics of Vitalis and Agricola.[2] Victricius wrote a sermon, De Laude Sanctorum (On the Praise of the Saints), celebrating the arrival of the relics from Italy.
(Victricius. Wikipedia. <en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Victricius>)

[Garcia] The earliest evidence of Victricius of Rouen's De Laude Sanctorum contains the earliest reference to the cult of saints in Britain. It implies that there were no saints' cults in Britain before the end of the fourth century. It also suggests that the cult of saints was introduced to Britain to promote orthodoxy against the threat of heresies such as Arianism. The sermon was composed c. 396, and is the only extant material by Victricius.14 He wrote De Laude Sanctorum in the style of an imperial panegyric for an adventus, an official ceremony usually performed for the arrival of a visiting emperor or his deputy, but on this occasion it was relics of martyrs sent to Rouen from Ambrose of Milan. The cult of relics is the central topic of the sermon.

[Burn] Another confession of great interest was presented by Victricius, Bishop of Rouen, to Pope Innocent I. in 403. We know it only from the references in a letter written to him by his intimate friend, Paulinus of Nola. He was accused, it would seem unjustly, of a leaning to Arian or Apollinarian heresy, and wrote to the Pope to defend himself, expressing his faith in a co-eternal Trinity, of one divinity and substance, and in the incarnation as the assuming of full manhood in body and soul.”
(Burn, Introduction to the Creeds, 1899, p. 130)

Burn is also above.

aka Victricius Rothomagensis and Victricius Rotomagensis.

The following combines TWOGIG and RGA (Grantley McDonald).

● [On the Praise of the Saints]
4. Have mercy, therefore, have mercy; You have the power to pardon, we confess God the Father, and God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. We confess that the three are one.
(Victricius of Rouen, On the Praise of the Saints, IV).

○ Latin:
Miseremini igitur, miseremini; habetis, quod ignoscatis, confitemur Deum Patrem; confitemur Deum Filium, confitemur sanctum Spiritum Deum. Confitemur quia tres unum sunt.
(Victricius Rotomagensis,, De Laude Sanctorum 4; Migne Latina, PL 20.446B; CCSL 64, p. 74-75)

=====================================

Is Victricius of Rouen giving a Trinitarian interpetation of the spirit, water and blood, as asserted by Grantley Robert McDonald in Raising the Ghost of Arius?

(4.) Have mercy, therefore, have mercy! You have what you can pardon. We confess God the Father; we confess God the Son; we confess God the Holy Spirit. We confess that these three are one. I said, one: indeed, they come from the One, just as the Son [comes] from the Father, thus the Father is in the Son; and just as the Holy Spirit [comes] from the Father and the Son, so the Father and the Son are in the Holy Spirit. They are one divinity and one substance, because there is one principle and one perpetuity, both existing before all things, and through whom all things were done. They are True God from True God because just as the one comes from the other so is the one in the other. Living One from the Living One, Perfect One from the Perfect One, Light from Light and Light in Light. Thus this Trinity’s divinity comes from the One and resides in the One. The Father is the Father; the Son is the Son; the Spirit is the Spirit. Three names, three by one principle, three by one power, three by one action, three by one substance, three by one perpetuity. Indeed, just as they are three from one, so there is unity in these three. We confess the Trinity in this way because we believe it to be this way: undivided, to Whose level nothing can reach, and Whom the mind cannot conceive, through Whom all things, visible and invisible (were created] be they Thrones, be they Dominations, be they Principalities, be they Powers. All things were made by Him, and without Him nothing was made (Jn 1:3].
