πόρρω τῆς πόλεως ἀπεδίωκον. Γρατιανὸς δὲ ἅμα τῷ ἀδελφῷ πᾶσαν τὴν Ῥωμαίων ἀρχὴν διέπων, οὐκ ἐπαινέσας τὸν θεῖον τῆς γνώμης, ἣν περὶ τοὺς ἑτέρως αὐτῷ δοξάζοντας διετέλεσεν ἔχων, πᾶσι τοῖς ἐπ’ ἐκείνου διὰ τὴν θρησκείαν φεύγειν καταδικασθεῖσι, τὴν κάθοδον ἀπέδωκε: καὶ νόμον ἔθετο, μετὰ ἀδείας ἑκάστους θρησκεύειν ὡς βούλονται, καὶ ἐκκλησιάζειν, πλὴν Μανιχαίων καὶ τῶν τὰ Φωτεινοῦ καὶ Εὐνομίου φρονούντων.
