And then, in the agonies of his disease, reviewing his cruelties, he hoped to conciliate the God of the Christians, whom he so feared he might meet in judg- ment, by withdrawing at the last the fatal instrument under which they had so suffered. From his death-bed he issued an edict, which apologized for the past sever- ities against the Christians, permitted the free exercise of the Christian religion, — on the ground that it was better than none. " Let t...hem be Christians as before," says the humiliated Emperor, conquered by the long en- durance of his enemies ; and he ended with these touch- ing words : " In using the grace which we bestow, they will be obliged to pray God for our health, for the state, and for themselves." A letter a few days after, provid- 7* 78 CONST antine. [a. d. 273 - 337.
