Note 071
Fideli et pia intelligentia . . . De Synod. c. 77, p.
1193. In his short apologetical notes (first published by
the Benedictines from a MS. of Chartres) he observes that he
used this cautious expression, quia intelligerem et impiam,
p. 1206. See p. 1146. Philostorgius, who saw those objects
through a different medium, is inclined to forget the
difference of the important diphthong. See in particular
viii. 17, and Godefroy, p. 352.
