And therefore The Emperor Justinian afterward thought it needful to abridge the number, & to make a law, that in the great Church at Constantinople, where Chrysostom was Bishop, there should not be above the number of threescore Priests: one hundred Deacons: forty women: four score and ten Subdeacons: one hundred and ten Readers, and five & twenty Singers. Hereby we may see, that Chrysostom being at Antioch in so Populous a City, although he had none of the Lay people with him, yet could not be utterly left alone.
