In deed by way of compromise, and agreement of the parties, matters were sometimes brought to be heard, and ended by the Bishop of Rome, as also by other Bishops: but not by any ordinary process, or course of Law. And so it appeareth, this matter between Athanasius, and the Arians was first brought unto Julius: for that the Arians willingly desired him, for trial thereof, to call a Council. For thus Julius him self writeth unto the Bishops of the East, as it is before alleged.1 Si Macario, & Hesychio nullam Synodum postulantibus adhortator fuissem, ut ad Synodum, qui ad me scripsissent, conuocarentur, idque in gratiam fiatrum, qui se iniuriam pati conquerebantur, etiam ita justa fuisset mea cohortatio: I am verò, ubi i•dem illi, qui a vobis pro gravibus viris, & fidedignis habiti sunt, authores mihi fuerint, ut vos conuocarem, cert• id a vobis aegrè ferri non debuit. If I had given advise unto (your messengers) Macarius, and Hesychius, that they, that had written unto me, might be called •o a Council, and that in consideration of our Brethren, which complained, they suffered wrong, although neither of them had desired the same, yet had mine advise been void of injury. But now, seeing the same men, whom you took to be grave, and worthy of credit, have made suite unto me, that I should call you, verily, ye should not take it in il part.

If I had geuen aduise vnto (your messingers) Macarius, and Hesychius, that they, that had written vnto me, might be called o a Councel, and that in consideration of our Brethren, whiche complained, they suffred wronge, although neither of them had desired the same, yet had mine aduise benne voyde of iniurie.
