219. qru&allij . Compare Aristoph. Nub. 59, 585.
220. la&sia xw&ria . "Regiones quasi arborum comis densoc et horrentes."
221. sitobolw~nej . The equivalent to "horrea," according to Hesychius.
222. Exod. xiv. 21, 22.
223. Exod. xvii. 6.
224. 2 Kings v. 14.
225. Compare Socrates, Eccl. Hist. b. vii. ch. 24.
226. Socrates, Eccl. Hist. b. vii. ch. 23.
227. For further information respecting Apollinarius, Basil, and Gregory of Nazianzum, the reader is referred to Fleury's Eccl. Hist. b. xii. ch. 52; b. xv. ch. 6 ; b. xvii. ch. 25; b. xiii. ch. 24 ; and b. xiv. ch. 1. There were two Gregories of Nazianzum, father and son ; it is scarcely necessary to remark that it is the son who is here spoken of.
228. w[n e0kate&raj . Go t hofred incorrectly renders these words thus : " Ex quo utrinque effunditur fluvius."
229. Suidas has here erroneously placed Eusebius for Philostorgius. The former makes no mention of Agapetus.
230. See above, b. ii. ch. 2.
231. That is, of course, St. Peter, who was the first bishop of Antioch. The use of the plural for the singular in this especial phrase is very common in the ecclesiastical writers.
232. See above, b. iii. ch. 15.
233. e1foroi . The heretical bias of Philostorgius obviously discovers itself, as Valesius remarks in his note, in the use of this term for that of e0pi/skopoi . The adoption of the term in this sense is without parallel among ancient Christian writers; and both this term and the praises of Aetius and Eunomius at the end of the chapter, clearly show the genuine character of the fragment, as being the composition of Philostorgius. See above, b. ii. ch. 4.
234. Valesius observes that we must read here Eunomius for Eudoxius ; as the former was never a pupil of Aetius, but (as we learn above, b. ii. ch. 15) of the martyr Lucian, or perhaps of one of his disciples; possibly of Asterius. Compare b. iv. ch. 4.
235. See above, b. v. ch. 2.
236. See above, b. iv. ch. 4.
237. See Iliad, B. 261.
238. See above, b. vii. ch. 6.
239. See above, b. vii. ch. 6.
240. Compare Hor. iv. Od. ii. 5-12, and I. Sat. iv. 11 ; x. 62.
241. See above, b. ix. ch. 14.
