Note 113:3 — Chapter VII · TRANSITION OF THE CHURCH UNDER CONSTANTINE
Reading edition
Zosimus, ii., 8; St. Ambrose, Migne, iii., 1209. For the fable about the English princess read Geoffrey of Monmouth and Pierre de Langloft. This tale was used by Baronius. It must be remembered that concubinage was a state recognised by Roman law, and was by no means in itself a sign of depravity.
