CHAP. XLIV. Concerning their Reception by Marianus the Notary, and concerning the money distributed amongst the poor, and the sacred Gifts of the Church.
BUt, over * 1.1 all these there was appointed as chief, a a 1.2 person highly acceptable and use∣full to the Emperour; one that was eminent for his Faith, Religion, and Skill in the Sacred Scri∣ptures. Who having been famous for his con∣fessions in defence of piety during the times of the Tyrants, was deservedly entrusted with the ordering of these matters. This person there∣fore with all imaginable sincerity paid obedience to the Emperours Commands, and honoured the Synod with a most Courteous Reception, enter∣taining them with splendid Feasts and Banquets. But, amongst the indigent and naked, b 1.3 and a∣mongst infinite multitudes of poor of both Sexes, who stood in great need of food and other ne∣cessaries, he distributed vast quantities of money, and a great number of Garments. Lastly, he va∣riously adorned the whole Church with magni∣ficent and royal sacred Gifts.
Notes
* 1.1
That is, The appro∣ved men sent from the Impe∣rial Palace.
This was Marianus the Tribune and No∣tary, as 'tis said in the Contents of this Chapter, and in So∣zomen. He bore the same dig∣nity under Constantius, as Athanasius attests in his Book de Synodis Arimini & Seleuciae. Vales.
〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉. It must be written 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉. There is the same errour in the foregoing Chapter; where the reading is 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉, instead of 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉; in which manner 'tis written at both places in the Fuketian Copy.
