237 DaiiiasuSj as it is alleged, encourag'ed by the support he had hitherto received from the emperor, proceeded with great severity ag-ainst the schismatics. A Luciferian priest, Macarius b}' name, held nocturnal assemblag'es of his party at Rome ; but, having* been detected by the spies of Damasus, the latter, at the head of a body of police, arrested and drag'g'ed him away with so much violence as to inflict a w^ound of which he afterwards died. His partisans fared no better than their leade...r ; the bishop, seconded by the civil power, caused many priests and laymen who had renounced his communion to be expelled from Rome, probably as participators in the illeg'al assemblies of Macarius. But it appears that these severities were limited to those who could be broug-ht within the operation of the civil law, and that he w^as powerless against the less adventurous members of the secession church, Avhose orthodox}^ he could not impugn, and who had abstained from the factious pro- ceedino-s that had brouo-ht their more active brethren mto trouble.
