Church-history of the government of bishops and their councils abbreviated including the chief part…

§. 12. The event of this Council was, that a Party of the Orientals adhered to Nestorius, took Cyril and this Council for Heretics, and to this day continue a numerous Party of Christians, called Heretics by the Pontificians, because they are not for them: And the Eutychians on all occasions accused their Adversaries the Orthodox to be Nestorians, and the Churches were inflamed by the dissension through many Ages following.

§. 13. And what was really the Controversy between them? Some accuse Nestorius as asserting two persons in Christ as well as two natures, which he still denied▪ Others accuse Cyril as denying two Natures: But his words about this were many, but he affirmed two Natures before the Union, (and so did the Eutychians) but one after: David Derodon a most learned Frenchman hath written a Treatise De Supposite, in which he copiously laboureth to prove that Nestorius was Orthodox, holding two Natures in one Person, and that Cyril and his Council were Heretics, holding one Nature only after Union, and that he was a true Eutychian, and Dioscorus did but follow him, and that the Council of Chalcedon condemned Nestorius and stablished his Doctrine, and extolled Cyril and condemned ⟨p. 90⟩his Doctrine.¹ But for my part I make no doubt that, de re, they were both fully of one mind, and differed only about the aptitude of a phrase: Whether it were an apt Speech to call Mary the Parent of God, and to say that God was two months old, God hungered, God dyed and rose, &c. which Nestorius denied, and Cyril and the Council with him affirmed. And what hath the World suffered by this Word War. But which was in the right.
