216

He having fallen away, Domnus, as has been said, succeeded to the ministry of the church in Antioch. But as Paul was in no way willing to depart from the house of the church, the emperor Aurelian, having been petitioned, made a most favorable decision concerning what was to be done, ordering the house to be assigned to those to whom the bishops of the doctrine throughout Italy and the city of the Romans should write. So then the aforementioned man is driven out of the church with the utmost shame by the secular authority.

216

ἀποπεπτωκότος ∆όμνος, ὡς εἴρηται, τὴν λειτουργίαν τῆς κατὰ Ἀντιόχειαν ἐκκλησίας διεδέξατο. ἀλλὰ γὰρ μηδαμῶς ἐκστῆναι τοῦ Παύλου τοῦ τῆς ἐκκλησίας οἴκου θελήσαντος, βασιλεὺς ἐντευχθεὶς Αὐρηλιανὸς αἰσιώτατα περὶ τοῦ πρακτέου διείληφε, τούτοις νεῖμαι προστάττων τὸν οἶκον, οἷς οἱ κατὰ τὴν Ἰταλίαν καὶ τὴν Ῥωμαίων πόλιν ἐπίσκοποι τοῦ δόγματος ἐπιστέλλοιεν. οὕτω δῆτα ὁ προδηλωθεὶς ἀνὴρ μετὰ τῆς ἐσχάτης αἰσχύνης ὑπὸ τῆς κοσμικῆς ἀρχῆς ἐξελαύνεται τῆς ἐκκλησίας.
