MEDIAEVAL UNITY 105 seditions troubled the realm of the Roman Empire ; and some say that the supporter of this discord is Gregory the Pope, who is called Hildebrand. ' ^ And again : ' It is certainly true that Pope Hildebrand has attempted to destroy the Scriptures and com- mands of the Lord concerning the unity of the Church. ' 2 The treatise from which these words are taken begins by showing that schism is the greatest of all crimes since it is an offence against unity. Quoting St. Augustine ...the author proceeds: 'Woe to them who hate the unity of the Church and presume to make parties among men ! Would that they might listen to those words : for it is clear that the sin of schism is greater than that of idolatry, since we read in the Old Testament that idolatry was punished by the sword and schism by an open- ing of the earth. ' ^ Thus the unity actually estab- lished by the Church was as nothing if compared with the ideal which the Church herself had first suggested, which the memory of Roman Order supported and the Mediaeval Empire inherited.
