When Maximus, Bishop of Jerusalem sate in a Council in Palestine, the old Paphnutius took him by the hand and led him out of it, and then told him, 'tis not lawful for us to consult about these things with wicked men. 1The Bishops of the WEST would not be present at that Council at Syrmium, from which Athanasius departed. St. Cyril, by Letters appealed from the Council of the Patropassians, 2as they were called. Paulinus, Bishop of grieves, and many others, would not come to the Council of Milan, when they saw the Power and Intrigues of Auxentius; for they saw it was to no purpose to go thither, where Faction and not Reason would he heard, and were Causes would be certainly determined by Affection and Passion, and not by Judgment. But then all these, tho they were to deal with enraged and obstinate Adversaries, yet if they had come, they should have been freely heard in the Council.
