The degradation of Silverius was intrusted not to the all powerful Belisarius alone, but to the surer hands of his wife Antonina, the accomplice of the Em- press in all her intrigues of every kind, and her counter- part in the arbitrary power with which she ruled her glorious but easy husband. The Pope Silverius was accused of treasonable correspondence with the Goths, witnesses were suborned to support this improbable charge against him, who had yielded up the city to the conqueror. Belisarius..., it is said, endeavoured to save the Pope from February, degradation, by inducing him to accede to the March. 63t. wishes of Thcodora, to condemn the Council of Chalcedon, and to communicate with Anthimus. The resolution of Silverius, who firmly rejected these proposi- tions, left him the defenceless victim of Vigilius and of Antonina. The successor of St. Peter was rudely sum- moned to the Pincian Palace, the military quarters of Belisariusl In the chamber of the General sat Antonina on the bed, with her husband at her feet.
