To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


altar of Apollo shall never again become ihe shrine of a lean goose." The report spread through the city, with won- derful rapidity, that the Emperor had ordered the bones of the martyred Bishop to be disinterred and cast out from his sepulchre in Daphne. The Chris- tians were moved to the very depths of their souls.
"The Emperor will pass thfs way," said Monica to the Christian women assembled in her house ; " let us show him that we are the friends of the martyr, and steadfast in the faith he
... so much hates." Parthenia's Christian belief had opened a gulf between herself and Julian ; but tender and faithful memories of the past prevented her from wishing to wound or insult the religion which did indeed, from her present point of view, seem to her a wretched delusion. She was silent, therefore, when Monica proposed, that, as the Emperor passed in his return trom Daphne, they should greet hun with one of the psalms of the Christians.
Parthenia gave no assent, and, as she sat there silent in her unimpaired beauty, she was calm from the very depth and fulness of her emotions.
