CHAPTER I.

[Transcriber’s Note: As described in the following footnote, the original book printed the translations from both the Latin and Greek originals. In the original book, the top of each page printed lines from the translation from the Latin, and the bottom of the page printed lines from the translation from the Greek, and the reader would be able to compare them, with the text for the numbered sections running over multiple printed pages. In this e-book, instead, the Latin translation for an entire numbered section will be printed, followed by that paragraph’s Greek translation, and then the next section.]

TRANSLATED FROM LATIN OF RUFINUS.
