Let false teachers according to Justinian, have no leave to live and dwell in Roman bounds, 1saith Pametius. Augustine saith, Heretics kill souls, let them be afflicted in body, they bring on men death eternal, and they complain that they suffer temporal deaths. And why (saith Augustine) should Sorcerers find the rigour of the Law from Emperors, and Heretics and Schismatics go free? Constantius gave out Edicts against Heretics, as Eusebius saith. h. 2. c. 27. And also made laws of pecuniary fines,2 and mulcts against them.
