It was a speech worthy the mouth of an Emperor which Alexander Severus used, Conabor me dignum praestare nomine Alexandri, I will endeavour to be worthy the name of Alexander. And it was a speech worthy the mouth of a Christian which Basilides, a converted Executioner, used to return upon his companions who perswaded him to swear by the name of Caesar, Non licet jurare, quia sum Christianus, It is not lawful for me to swear by him, because I am a Christian. |

And it was a speech worthy the Mouth of a Christian which Basilides, a converted Executioner, used to return upon his Sodales who persuaded him to swear by the name of Caesar, Non licet jurare, quia sum Christian, It is not lawful for me to swear by him, Because I am a Christian. |
