JOANNES MONACHUS.
NO Authors did ever carry the Virgin Mary's Praises farther, than the Greeks of these latter * 1.1 Ages. We have already spoken of Eight Sermons of George Pisides upon that Subject. Here is a Monk, who is probably of the same time, not at all inferior to him in the Decla∣mation, which he made upon the Birth of the Mother of God. He mingles with the Vir∣gin's Commendations some Speeches, which he applies sometimes to S. Anne, sometimes to the Virgin. He brings in the Patriarchs, the Prophets, and the Righteous. Yea, and Adam himself acts his part there. If any Body liketh those kind of Discourses, he may con∣sult the Originals; for we are not willing to make Extracts of them. Allatius thinks, this John was Arch-Bishop of Bulgaria. It is not known when he lived.
