They so dis- course as those that know that God heareth. After that water for the hands and lights are brought. According as each is able out of the Holy Scriptures or of his own mind he is called upon to sing publicly to God. Hence it is proved in what degree he hath drunken. In like manner prayer breaks up the feast. Thence they separate, not unto bands for violence, 1 nor into groups for running to and fro, nor for the outbreakings of lasciviousness, but to be as chary as before of modesty a...nd chastity as men 1 Cf. Juvenal, iii. 278.
The Second and Third Centuries* 161 who have fed not so much upon meats as uporj instructions upon righteousness. This coming together of Christians would deservedly be unlawful if it were like those things which are unlawful, deservedly to be condemned if it were not at variance with those things which are to be con- demned. If any complain of it on the ground that factious parties are complained of, for whose hurt have we at any time assembled ? We are the same when gathered together as when scattered, the same in the mass as single, offending no one, vexing no one.
