The Ecclesiastical History Of Theodoret by Theodoret

CIII. To the Count Apollonius.

The very godly bishops have been led to travel to the imperial city by the calumnies uttered against me, and I by their holinesses send your excellency my salutation, and pay the debt of friendship, not indeed to wipe out the cherished obligation, but to make it greater.
