Constantine the Emperor speaking of the keeping of the feast of Easter / ¹saith that it is an unworthy thing to have any thing common with that most spiteful company of the Jews. And a little after he saith / that it is most absurd and against reason / that the Jews should vaunt and glory / that the Christians ²could not keep those things without their doctrine. And in an other place it is said after this sort: It is convenient so to order the matter / that we have nothing common with that nation.
