Of the COUNCIL of Paris.

THE Western Bishops who had been abused in the Synod of Ariminum, being conscious of their * 1.1 Fault, endeavour'd to repair it by assembling many Synods to annul what had been done there, and to maintain the Nicene Faith. France was none of the last that testified her Zeal upon this occasion. St. Hilary assembled there many Councils for Re-establishing the Faith of the Council of Nice. We have yet in the Fragments of St. Hilary, a Letter of a Council held at Paris, where∣in the Bishops that were there present acknowledge, That they had done ill to consent in the Synod of Ariminum, that they should speak no more of the Word, Substance. They profess to believe, that the Three Persons of the Trinity are of the same Nature, and of the same Substance, and they condemn Auxentius, Ursacius, Valens and Saturninus. This Council was in the Year 362.
