't is impossible to read his Writings but one must feel himself Instructed and Convinced of the Truth and he cannot but conceive a Love for Vertue and a Hatred of Vice His Discourses are not void of Thoughts and full of Words as for the most Part those of Orators are but Eloquence is there joyn'd with Doctrine they Instruct they Divert and they Move at once His Stile is Pure and Significant his Expressions are Lofty his way of Writing Elegant Clean and Persuasive his Discourses appear always Natural flowing Gently and without Affectation He persuades Pleasantly he explains things with great Clearness he knows how to give them so probable a turn that he may be taken for a Pattern and he comes near Demosthenes and the ablest Orators of Antiquity in the Judgment of the Learned Photius and even in the Judgment of Erasmus he excells the Ancient Greek Orators and is free from their Faults He was fit for all kinds of Writings His Commentaries upon Scripture are most Instructive and most Natural He excells in his Panegyricks The Force and Subtilty of his Reasoning appear in his Treatises of Controversy his Discourses of Morality are Instructive and Moving In short tho' his Asceticks have not the same Loftiness as his other Works yet there one may find the same Purity of Phrase and the same Clearness but his Method renders them sometimes a little obscure In a word Whatever Subject he treats of he does it always very Learnedly He had all the Properties of a Divine Understanding perfectly the Holy Scripture the Tradition of the Fathers and the Canons of the Church He was a very able Rhetorician a very profound Philosopher and a very subtil Logician He understood also the Mathematicks and his own continual Sickness made him a Physician He understood Philological Learning to Perfection and made use of it to very good purpose He knew all that was most Curious in the Poets the Historians and profane Orators as may appear from many places of his Writings and chiefly from his little Tract of reading profane Authors In a word that which is indeed admirable is that he joyn'd with this Learning a profound Piety and a singular Prudence He was Sweet and Affable to all the World Charitable towards the Poor and Compassionate to others in Misery He was accus'd of being Proud but St. Gregory Nazianzen who suspected him of this Vice vindicates him from it in his Panegyrick He was of a very infirm Health and subject to many Diseases he speaks of them in the most part of his Letters and also in some of his Homilies St. Gregory Nazianzen informs us that he was pale that he wore always a great Beard that he was reserv'd in his Speech often thoughtful and pensive had a particular way in his Apparel in his Bed and his Meat which some would imitate after his Death The Doctrine of St. Basil is very Pure and Orthodox He has explain'd the Mystery of the Trinity against the Hereticks clearly and beyond Contest tho' at the beginning he was reserv'd in his Expressions about the Divinity of the Holy Spirit yet he always own'd it and never spoke contrary to what he thought He never us'd any other Precaution but to be silent upon that Point when he thought it not necessary to speak of it or that it would be to no purpose He was one of those who troubled himself most to distinguish the Three Hypostases in God that 's to say to prove that Hypostasis and Person signify the same thing As to the Mystery of the Incarnation he acknowledg'd in Jesus Christ two Natures without Confusion and yet united in one and the same Person He rejected the Error of the Apollinarians and Thâ—â—pâ—ssiâ—â—s and maintain'd with the Church that the Properties of the humane Nature do by no means agree to the Divinity He affirm'd several times That the Cause and Reason why the Son of God was made Man was the Salvation and Redemption of Mankind polluted by the Sin of Adam He knew the Greatness of that Fall and the miserable Effects which it produc'd as Concupiscence Sickness Death c. He establish'd the Necessity of the Grace of Jesus Christ without which it is impossible to do Good He is the only Person of the Greek Fathers who spoke most clearly of it and attributed least to Free-will tho hâ— own'd it He admitted the Efficacy and Necessity of Baptism Yet he believ'd that this Sacrament might be supplied by Faith and Charity and by the Baptism of Blood and that it signified nothing at least to those that had not Faith and were not well dispos'd to receive it He mentions the Unction that accompanied it and approves the Ceremonies that were joyn'd with it He call'd the Eucharist the Body and Blood of Jesus Christ Tho' he was of Opinion that we should Communicate often yet he requires Holy Dispositions in those who receive this Mystery He speaks of the Ceremonies and Prayers that were made use of for the Offering and of the Manner in which it was distributed to the Faithful He observes That they carried it and kept it in their Houses and that they believ'd it was always Consecrated He commends Fasting and speaks of Lent as a Fast to which we are oblig'd He has also observ'd That it was attended with Abstinence from Meat He speaks of the Usage of Invocating Saints and Martyrs He is perswaded that they pray for us and that their Intercession is very profitable He preferrs Celibacy to Marriage He approves of Vows and a Monastick State He acknowledges the Authority of Traditions as well as that of Scripture However he has some particular Opinions as when he maintains in the First Homily of the Creation That the Angels were created long before the World and when he affirms in another place That all Men shall be Purified at the Day of Judgment by Fire But there are very few of this sort of slight Errors in this Author There were also some Expressions objected to him which appear'd Hyperbolical or less Exact but 't is easy to give them a good Sence I shall not stay to make a larger Enumeration of his Opinions which I have explain'd at length in the Extracts out of his Works I conclude therefore with giving a Catalogue of the Translations and Editions of the Works of this Father The First Edition of the Works of St. Basil in Greek is that of Frobenius printed at Basil in the Year 1532. It contains the Homilies upon the Creation and the Psalms 29 different Homilies the Book of the Holy Spirit and some Letters After it followed the Edition at Venice made by Sabius in the Year 1537. in which are added the Three first Books against Eunomius At last in the Year 1551 almost all the Works of St. Basil were printed in Greek at Paris by the Care of Janus Cornarius who also printed them in Latin by Frobenius in the Year 1549.

Advice to Sinners The most perfect State is not to sin but it is good to repent when we have sinned and to rise again as soon as may be from our Fall Since you are fallen from your first Estate which is above your Strength have a care that you do not neglect the second means of gaining your Salvation and take heed that Despair do not entirely ruin you l. 1. 381. l. 2. 160. l. 3. 62.

There are an infinite number of such like Instructions in the Letters of S. Isidore They are full of Maxims of Piety and the Rules of a Spiritual Life He in several Places of them recommends Charity Humility Vigilance Holiness Modesty Sobriety Patience Contempt of the World Repentance Labour Prayer and other Christian Vertues of which he teaches the Practical Part. He renders the contrary Vices detestable and propounds fit Remedies for us to apply to them He principally inveighs against Three Vices very common in his Time Ambition Covetousness and Intemperance Lastly All his Letters are full of most solid and profitable Christian Maxims This is an excellent one which he often repeats Our Lives must correspond with our Words and we ought to practise our selves what we teach others for it is not enough to say but we must do what we say Letters concerning the Discipline and Life of the Monks As S. Isidore professed a Monastick Life so 't is to the Monks that the greatest part of his Instructions which we have already spoken of are directed He extols a Monastick State in general l. 1. Let. 129. and gives the Description of a true Monk l. 1. 200 298 308 319. He makes that estate to consist principally in two things In Retiredness and Obedience l. 1. 1. The Apparel of the Monks according to him ought to be like S. John Baptist's that is to say Of Hair and their Food ought to be nothing but Herbs But if they are not able to undergo so great Austerities they ought to live in that Way which the Bishop commands them and follow the Rules which he shall prescribe them l. 1. 5 74 They ought not to live as they list but put themselves under the Government of some Superior l. 1. 193 260. They ought not to concern themselves with worldly Affairs nor maintain any Trade or Commerce with the World l. 1. 25 75 92 220. When any Man hath once embraced a Monastick Life he ought to persevere with Zeal l. 1. 91 110. Inconstant and fickle Monks are blame-worthy l. 1. 41 173 314 318. They ought not to be allowed to live in Idleness but they must be employed and labour l. 1. 49. They may not read the Books of Profane Authors nor affect to speak or declaim elegantly l. 1. 62 64. I omit to speak of the Practice of such Christian Vertues as he recommends to them and of those Vices which he reproves in some Monks of his Time because that were to repeat what we have already said What we have spoken of S. Isidore of Damiata may suffice to inform us of his Style and Person Nothing remains more to be spoken of but the Editions of these Letters which I shall do in a few Words The three first Books were translated into Latin by the Abbot Billius and printed after his Death in Greek and Latin at Paris in 1585. with a Collection of the excellent Observations of that Learned Man as well upon S. Isidore as upon other Greek Fathers Ritterhusius added a Fourth Book to these and caused it to be printed with the other Three and his own large Notes upon all the Four Books by Commelinus at Heidelberg in 1605. The Jesuit Schottus joyned a Fifth Book to them which was printed in Greek at Antwerp in 1623 in Latin at Rome in 1624. and in Greek and Latin illustrated with Notes Glosses and Arguments at Franck fort in 1629. They are all collected into one Volume and printed in the last Edition at Paris in 1638. JOANNES CASSIANUS JOANNES CASSIANUS a Native of Scythia a A Native of Scythia Gennadius says plainly That he was a Scythian M. Holstenius and F. Norris endeavour to prove that he was a Frenchman and this they pretend to do from ch 1. conf 24. but that Place doth not prove what they assert nor destroy the Testimony of Gennadius which is of great weight Photius says That he was a Roman but he means it of the Place of his Abode and the Tongue he wrote in Honorius calls him an African perhaps because he thought Scythia was in Africa Some say he was a Native of Scythia and born at Carthage but this is without Ground What some say That he wrote too elegantly in Latin to be a Greek is not to be regarded It is very possible that a Greek living among the Latins might write Latin as well as he hath done Besides he lived in an Age when almost all Learned Men were skilled in both Tongues having devoted himself to God in his Childhood withdrew himself into the Monastery of Bethlehem b He withdrew himself into the Monastery of Bethlehem He says so himself in the Preface of his Institutions dedicated to Castor where speaking of his First Exercise in that Monastery he says A pueritia nostra constituti afterward being J. Cassian desirous to attain the utmost perfection of a Religious Life he departed from thence with another Monk named Germanus with whom he had contracted an intimate Friendship to go into Aegypt and Thebais to see the Solitaries and Monks of that Country and gather some Advantage by their Example and Instructions Having lived Seven Years c Having lived seven Years In his First Conference ch 1. he tells us That it was the Desire he had to visit the Monks and profit by their Instructions that made him undertake that Voyage Germanus with whom he travelled had been longer in the Monastery than he they always were very intimate He relates in his Conferences the principal Discourses which they had with the most Spiritual Religious all-a-long their Voyage and the Places whither they went in the seventeenth Conf. ch 31. He says That
Henry Duke of Bavaria but understanding that William was in his march to set upon him with a numerous Army he betook himself back again into Apuleia where he died not without suspicion of being poisoned by his Brother Manfred the 22d of May in 1254 leaving his Son Conradine Heir to Sicily Manfred who did not care for The Government of Manfred in Sicily parting with Sicily pretended a desire of being friends with the Pope and thereupon invites him to come to Sicily Accordingly the Pope comes with an Army to make himself acknowledged Soveraign of that Kingdom but Manfred quickly picks a quarrel with him and routs part of his Army which so seized upon Innocent's Spirits that he died at Naples the 7th of December 1254. Alexander the 4th who succeeded him did not lay down his Predecessor's design upon Sicily but he had no better fortune Manfred defeated his Troops and made himself Master of Apuleia and Sicily The Pope seeing he was not able to maintain this War gave the Kingdom to Edmund Son of the King of England and dispensed with the Vow of that King to go for the Holy Land on condition he would make war upon Manfred against whom he also appointed a Crusade While Manfred was strengthening himself in the Kingdom of Sicily Ecelin who took the Troubles in the Empire and Italy part of Frederick's Heirs had made himself master of Lombardy and the Pope to drive him from thence had published a Crusade against him too at Venice The greatest part of Germany had acknowledged William for their Soveraign and as he was preparing to take a journey into Italy there to receive the Imperial Crown he was forced to march against the Friezlanders who had entered into Holland but going against them he fell into a Fen that was frozen and was there killed by an Ambuscade of his Enemies in December 1256. After his death the German Princes were divided about the Election of an Emperor some of them declaring for Richard Brother to the King of England and the others for Alphonsus King of The Elections of Alphonsus and Richard to the Empire Castile The former was Elected at Francfort on the Octave of the Epiphany in the year 1257 by Conrade Archbishop of Cologn who was also Proxy for Gerard Archbishop of Mentz by Lewis Count Palatine of the Rhine and Henry Duke of Bavaria the other in Lent by Arnold Archbishop of Treves as Proxy for the King of Bohemia the Duke of Saxony the Marquiss of Brandenburgh and many other Princes Thus did the German Princes basely sell the Honor of their Nation and their own Votes to Strangers who for many years together disputed the Empire without ever agreeing the matter All which time Lombardy was the Seat of the War between the Guelphs and Gibelines of the former of which Albert of the latter Ecelin was the Head The latter was wounded and taken Prisoner in 1260 and died of his wounds after having for four and thirty years been master of the most considerable Cities in Lombardy His death set Italy at rest which was not long after broken by the War between the Venetians and Genouese Richard and Alphonsus were elected Emperors but got nothing by it save the bare Title Alphonsus never set foot in Germany and Richard being come to Francfort after having spent all that he was worth was forced to return to England In their absence Ottogar King of Bohemia extended his Dominions in Germany so that in a short time he was become one of the most powerful Princes in Europe In Italy Urban the 4th who succeeded Alexander had published a Crusade against Manfred and all that sided with him in Apuleia or Lombardy and stirred up some French Lords to come into Italy Manfred on his part entred with his Troops into the Estate of the Church and to strengthen himself against the Pope entred into an Alliance with Jame's the 3d King of Arragon by marrying his Daughter Constantia to Peter the King 's eldest Son The Pope on his side seeing that Edmund could not prosecute the Conquest of the Kingdom of Sicily by reason of the Troubles that were in England invested Charles Earl of Anjou Brother of St. Louis therewith who came to Rome in 1265 and was there crown'd King of Sicily on the 28th of June by Clement the 4th Urban's Successor Charles Earl of Anjou defeats Manfred and seizes himself upon Sicily who also made him Senator of that City He was followed with an Army by Sea and Land and giving Battel to Manfred on the 26th of February the following year near Benevento he gained an absolute and bloody Victory over his Troops Manfred himself being killed upon the spot After his Death the Kingdom of Sicily submitted to the Conqueror but Conradin whose right this Kingdom was wrote a Letter to the Princes of Europe wherein he laid open the justice of his Pretensions and implored their assistance for its recovery He got together an Army composed for the most part of Voluntiers with which by the advice Conradin disputes the Kingdom of Sicily with Charles he is defeated and executed of Henry Brother of Alphonsus he made a Descent into Tuscany where he surprized and cut in pieces those Forces which Charles whom the Pope had constituted Vicar of the Empire in that Country had left there and at the same time Conrade a Son of one of the Emperor Frederick's Bastards who was come from Antioch drew off all Sicily from their Obedience except Messma and Palermos while Conradin by the assistance of the Gibelines made himself Master of all Tuscany and Romagna and entred in Triumph into Rome where he was proclaimed Emperor by the People But being entred into Campania with a design to go into Sicily Charles met him at the Lake of Fucin called the Lake of Celano where he gave him Battel on the 25th of August 1268 in which Charles got the day Conradin Frederick Duke of Austria and Henry of Castile betook themselves to flight but happening to be known in the way were brought back again to the Conqueror who put them into prison and gave them their Trial the next year Conradin and Frederick were put to death and Henry of Castile confined to Prison Just about the same time too Conrade was taken by some of Charles's Party who hanged him up and a short time after Entius the only one remaining of the Princes of Suabia died in his Prison of Bologna Thus unhappily perished the whole Race of the Emperor Frederick The House of Austria quickly succeeded that of Suabia in Glory and Power for Richard The Election of Rodolphus to the Empire and his Actions being dead and Alphonsus having no friends left him in Germany the Electors assembled themselves in October 1273 at Francfort according to the counsel of Pope Gregory X. and there elected Rodolphus Earl of Hapsburg without any regard had to the Remonstrances of the Deputies of Alphonsus or
