" LiBERius. — " Em[)eror, ecclesiastical sentences ought to be enacted Avith justice : therefore, if it be pleasing to your piety, order the judges to assemble; and if it be seen that Athanasius deserves condemna- tion, then let sentence be passed upon him according to ecclesiastical forms. No man ought to be con- demned without being examined. " CoNSTANTius. — " The whole universe has con- demned him ; but he, as he has done from the very first, does but trifle away time. " LiBERius. — " Those... who signed the condemnation were not eye-witnesses of any thing that occurred; but Avere actuated by the desire of glory, and by the fear of ignominy. " The Emperor. — "What glory did they desire? What ignominy did they fear?" LiBERius. — " Those Avho love not the glory of God, but who attach greater value to your gifts than to his glory, have condemned a man Avhom they have neither seen nor judged; this is very contrary to the principles of Christians. " The Emperor. — " Athanasius was present at the council of Tyre, when he Avas judged and condemned by all the bishops of the Avorld.
