And that manner may appear to be very like unto a certain custom of the Ethnics: For in a certain usage of their service of God (as Festus declareth) the Sergeant said:1 Exesto hostis victus, mulier, virgo, that is, let the overcome enemy, the woman & the maid go forth, for in that kind of service it was forbidden that those kind of persons should be present. And Apuleius in his .2. book saith, that the Priest did use when he offered sacrifices, to say thus: [Greek or Hebrew], that is, who shall abide here? To whom was answered: [Greek or Hebrew], As though it should have been said: honest & good men, when as they which were polluted & unworthy were gone. So was it done in our church:2 for after that saying aforesaid of the Deacon, [Greek or Hebrew], fallers away, & such as were put to repentance went their way. Of these orders Dionysius made mention. They were called [Greek or Hebrew], which were vexed with evil spirits. Peradventure they were excommunicated, for those at that time, I mean in the primitive church, were delivered up to Satan.
And that maner maye appeare to be very like vnto a certaine custome of the Ethnikes: For in a certayne vsage of their seruice of God (as Festus declareth) the Sargeant said:1 Exesto hostis victus, mulier, virgo, that is, let the ouercome enemy, the woman & the maide go foorth, for in that kinde of seruice it was forbidden that those kinde of persons shoulde be present. And Apuleius in his .2. booke saith, that the Priest did vse when he offered sacrifices, to say thus: 〈non-Latin alphabet〉, that is, who shal abide here? To whom was answered: 〈non-Latin alphabet〉, As though it should haue bene said: honest & good men, when as they which wer polluted & vnworthy wer gon. So was it done in our church:2 for after that saying aforesaid of the Deacon, 〈non-Latin alphabet〉, fallers away, & such as wer put to repentance went their way. Of these orders Dionisius made mencion. They wer called , which wer vexed with euyll spirits. Peraduenture they wer excōmunicated, for those at that time, I meane in the primatiue church, wer deliuered vp to Sathan.
