Let him pray, however, facing east; for this also is written in the second book of Chronicles, that after the temple of the Lord was completed by King Solomon, at the dedication itself the priests and the Levites and the singers with cymbals and harps stood facing east, praising and confessing and saying: ‘Praise the Lord, for he is good, for his mercy endures forever.’ Let him pray these things after the former prayer, saying: O God almighty, the Father of your Christ, your only-begotten Son, give me an unspotted body, a pure heart, a watchful mind, unerring knowledge, the coming of the Holy Spirit for the possession and full assurance of the truth, through your Christ, through whom to you be glory in the Holy Spirit for ever and ever; amen. These things we have thought it right to ordain also concerning the catechumens. But concerning the bishops ordained by us in our lifetime, we make known to you that these are they. Of Jerusalem, James the brother of the Lord; after he died, the second was Symeon the son of Clopas, after whom the third was Judas the son of James. Of Caesarea in Palestine, first Zacchaeus, who was once a tax collector, after whom was Cornelius, and the third Theophilus. Of Antioch, Euodius by me, Peter, and Ignatius by Paul. Of Alexandria, Annianus was the first, ordained by Mark the evangelist, and the second was Abilius by Luke, also an evangelist. Of the Church of the Romans, Linus, the son of Claudia, was the first, by Paul, and Clement, after the death of Linus, was the second, ordained by me, Peter. Of Ephesus, Timothy by Paul, and John by me, John. Of Smyrna, Ariston was first, after whom was Strataeas the son of Lois, and the third Ariston. Of Pergamum, Gaius; and of Philadelphia, Demetrius by me. And by Paul, Lucius of Cenchreae and Titus of Crete. And Dionysius in Athens, and of Tripolis in Phoenicia, Marthones. Of Laodicea in Phrygia, Archippus, and of Colossae, Philemon. Of Beroea in Macedonia, Onesimus the son of Philemon, and Crescens of the churches in Galatia. And Aquila and Nicetas of the

ἑστάναι καὶ προσεύχεσθαι διὰ τὸ τὸν ἐγειρόμενον ὄρθιον εἶναι· καὶ αὐτὸς οὖν συναποθανὼν τῷ Χριστῷ καὶ συνεγερ θεὶς ἕστηκεν. Προσευχέσθω δὲ κατὰ ἀνατολάς· καὶ γὰρ καὶ τοῦτο γέγραπται ἐν τῇ δευτέρᾳ τῶν Παραλειπομένων, ὅτι μετὰ τὸ συντελεσθῆναι τὸν ναὸν τοῦ Κυρίου ὑπὸ τοῦ βασιλέως Σολομῶνος ἐν αὐτῷ τῷ ἐγκαινισμῷ οἱ ἱερεῖς καὶ οἱ λευῖται καὶ οἱ ψαλτῳδοὶ μετὰ κυμβάλων καὶ ψαλτηρίων εἱστήκεισαν κατὰ ἀνατολάς, αἰνοῦντες καὶ ἐξομολογούμενοι καὶ λέγοντες· «Aἰνεῖτε τὸν Κύριον, ὅτι ἀγαθός, ὅτι εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα τὸ ἔλεος αὐτοῦ». Προσευχέσθω δὲ ταῦτα μετὰ τὴν προτέραν εὐχὴν λέγων· Ὁ Θεὸς ὁ παντοκράτωρ, ὁ Πατὴρ τοῦ Χριστοῦ σου τοῦ μονογενοῦς Υἱοῦ σου, δός μοι σῶμα ἄσπιλον, καρδίαν καθα ράν, νοῦν ἐγρήγορον, γνῶσιν ἀπλανῆ, Πνεύματος ἁγίου ἐπι φοίτησιν πρὸς κτῆσιν καὶ πληροφορίαν τῆς ἀληθείας διὰ τοῦ Χριστοῦ σου, δι' οὗ σοι δόξα ἐν ἁγίῳ Πνεύματι εἰς τοὺς αἰῶνας· ἀμήν. Ταῦτα καὶ περὶ τῶν κατηχουμένων δίκαιον ἡγησά μεθα διατάξασθαι. Περὶ δὲ τῶν ὑφ' ἡμῶν χειροτονηθέντων ἐπισκόπων ἐν τῇ ζωῇ τῇ ἡμετέρᾳ γνωρίζομεν ὑμῖν, ὅτι εἰσὶν οὗτοι. Ἱεροσολύμων μὲν Ἰάκωβος ὁ τοῦ Κυρίου ἀδελφός, οὗ τελευτήσαντος δεύτερος Συμεὼν ὁ τοῦ Κλωπᾶ, μεθ' ὃν τρίτος Ἰούδας Ἰακώβου. Καισαρείας δὲ τῆς Παλαιστίνης πρό τερον μὲν Ζακχαῖος ὅ ποτε τελώνης, μεθ' ὃν Κορνήλιος καὶ τρίτος Θεόφιλος. Ἀντιοχείας δὲ Eὐόδιος μὲν ὑπ' ἐμοῦ Πέτρου, Ἰγνάτιος δὲ ὑπὸ Παύλου. Τῆς δὲ Ἀλεξανδρέων Ἀννιανὸς πρῶτος ὑπὸ Μάρκου τοῦ εὐαγγελιστοῦ κεχειρο τόνηται, δεύτερος δὲ Ἀβίλιος ὑπὸ Λουκᾶ καὶ αὐτοῦ εὐαγγε λιστοῦ. Τῆς δὲ Ῥωμαίων Ἐκκλησίας Λῖνος μὲν ὁ Κλαυδίας πρῶτος ὑπὸ Παύλου, Κλήμης δὲ μετὰ τὸν Λίνου θάνατον ὑπ' ἐμοῦ Πέτρου δεύτερος κεχειροτόνηται. Τῆς δὲ Ἐφέσου Τιμόθεος μὲν ὑπὸ Παύλου, Ἰωάννης δὲ ὑπ' ἐμοῦ Ἰωάννου. Σμύρνης δὲ Ἀρίστων πρῶτος, μεθ' ὃν Στραταίας ὁ Λώϊδος καὶ τρίτος Ἀρίστων. Περγάμου δὲ Γάϊος καὶ Φιλαδελφείας ∆ημήτριος ὑπ' ἐμοῦ. Ὑπὸ δὲ Παύλου Λούκιος Κεγχρεῶν καὶ τῆς Κρήτης Τίτος. ∆ιονύσιος δὲ ἐν Ἀθήναις, τῆς δὲ ἐν Φοινίκῃ Τριπόλεως Μαρθόνης. Τῆς δὲ ἐν Φρυγίᾳ Λαοδικείας Ἄρχιππος, Κολασσαέων δὲ Φιλήμων. Βεροίας δὲ τῆς κατὰ Μακε δονίαν Ὀνήσιμος ὁ Φιλήμονος, Κρήσκης δὲ τῶν κατὰ Γαλατίαν Ἐκκλησιῶν. Ἀκύλας δὲ καὶ Νικήτης τῶν
