He persecuted the heretics with holy joy — and under that word he included Pagans, Donatists, Catholics — all who were not Arian. His zeal burnt the brighter First Prussian Kaiser 145 for having been converted in early life, and when he learned of his victims, burned or butchered to death, he had the satisfaction that consoled the last years of Philip II. Of Spain, who insisted on the Inquisition in this world as better than eternal damnation in the next. So soon as the Roman fleet had been dis...persed, the outlying possessions of Genseric submitted once more to his rule; Sardinia, Tripoli, and Sicily paid him tribute and his galleys again raided the coasts of Asia, Greece, and Italy. He studiously cultivated the friendship of his brother barbarians in the Roman hinterland and the booty and tri- bute which filled his treasury after every sea raid served to meet the expense of his endless war against the heretics of his own land. For half a century Genseric scourged Northern Africa — and for yet another half -century after his death his descendants continued this Prussian process.
