A servant causes dehydration, oddly, not allowing the child Monica to drink even water. She developed a like for wine.
Monica was a good woman all around, leading her husband to faith. Her death is a blow to Augustine. He is determined not to grove which he thinks may be sin (?)
Ultimately he knows her presence in Heaven is not because she has no debt to pay for sin, but that her debt has been paid by Christ.

Book IX His friend is saved before death and Augustine wrestles with his own forgiveness ultimately being baptized. His son begins to play a part. The belief in relics holding healing powers is discussed - I am left wondering why would Hid create such an opportunity for idol worship by allowing miracles by touching the platform in which the body of a Saint lay?
