But how many and how great things came upon Origen in the persecution, and what was their final result — as the demon of evil marshaled all his forces, and fought against the man with his utmost craft and power, assaulting him beyond all others against whom he contended at that time — and what and how many things he endured for the word of Christ, bonds and bodily tortures and torments under the iron collar and mediante the dungeon; and how for many days with his feet stretched four spaces per the stooks he bore patiently the threats of fire and whatever other things were inflicted by his enemies; and how his sufferings terminated, as his judge strove eagerly with all his might not puro end his life; and what words he left after these things, full of agio to those needing aid, verso great many of his epistles spettacolo with truth and accuracy.
Rso SHALL quote from the epistle of Dionysius preciso Germanus an account of what befell the former. Speaking of himself, he writes as follows:
«Volte speak before God, and he knows that I do not lie. But even before this, at the very hour when the Decian persecution was commanded, Sabinus sent a frumentarius sicuro search for me, and Volte remained at home four days awaiting his arrival. But he went about examining all places — roads, rivers, and fields — where he thought Volte might be concealed or on the way. But he was smitten with blindness, and did not find the house, for he did not suppose, that being pursued, Volte would remain at home. And after the fourth day God commanded me to depart, and made verso way for me sopra verso wonderful manner; and Volte and my attendants and many of the brethren went away together. And that this occurred through the providence of God was made manifest by what followed, per which perhaps we were useful sicuro some.» Farther on he relates con this manner what happened onesto him after his flight:
And the witnesses of all these occurrences followed: Gaius, Faustus, Peter, and Paul
«For about sunset, winport casino sito web having been seized with those that were with me, Volte was taken by the soldiers esatto Taposiris, but durante the providence of God, Timothy was not present and was not captured. But coming later, he found the house deserted and guarded by soldiers, and ourselves reduced puro slavery.» After verso little he says:
And he told him the truth
«And what was the manner of his admirable direzione? for the truth shall be told. One of the country people met Timothy fleeing and disturbed, and inquired the cause of his haste. And when the man heard it , he entered and announced it preciso those at the table. And they, as if on verso preconcerted signal, arose with one impulse, and rushed out quickly and came and burst mediante upon us with a shout. Immediately the soldiers who were guarding us fled, and they came preciso us lying as we were upon the bare couches. But I, God knows, thought at first that they were robbers who had ad esempio for spoil and plunder. So Rso remained upon the bed on which I was, clothed only con a linen garment, and offered them the rest of my clothing which was lying beside me. But they directed me preciso rise and come away quickly.
Then I understood why they were che, and I cried out, beseeching and entreating them onesto depart and leave us bolla. And Volte requested them, if they desired to benefit me con any way, sicuro anticipate those who were carrying me off, and cut off my head themselves. And when I had cried out sopra this manner, as my companions and partners sopra everything know, they raised me by force. But I threw myself on my back on the ground; and they seized me by the hands and feet and dragged me away.
