CHAP. IX. That the Emperour Theodosius [ordered] the body of Paulus Bishop of Constantinople to be honourably translated from [the place of his] Exile. At which time also Meletius [Bishop] of Antioch departed this life.
AT that time the Emperour translated the body of Paulus the Bishop from the City Ancyra: whom Philippus Praefect of the Prae∣torium had banished upon Macedonius's account, and had ordered him to be strangled in Cucusus a Town of Armenia, as I have * 1.1 already men∣tioned. [Theodosius] therefore, having re∣ceived [his body] with much honour and re∣verence, deposited it in the Church which now bears his own name; which Church the em∣bracers of Macedonius's opinion were heretofore in possession of, at such time as they were sepa∣ratists from the Arians: but were then expelled by the Emperour, because they refused embracing of his faith. Moreover, at the same time, Me∣litius Bishop of Antioch fell into a distemper, and died: in praise of whom Gregorius, Basilius's brother, spoke a a 1.2 Funeral Oration. Meletius's body was by his friends conveyed to Antioch. Such as were favourers of Meletius, did again refuse to be subject to Paulinus: but caused Fla∣vianus to be substituted in the place of Meletius. By reason whereof a new division did again arise amongst the people. Thus the Antiochian Church was afresh divided into two parties, on account of their Bishops, not of their faith.
