Note 062
The invasion of Syria, the ruin of Antioch,
&c., are related in a full and regular series by Procopius,
(Persic. l. ii. c. 5 - 14.) Small collateral aid can be
drawn from the Orientals: yet not they, but D'Herbelot
himself, (p. 680,) should blush when he blames them for
making Justinian and Nushirvan contemporaries. On the
geography of the seat of war, D'Anville (l'Euphrate et le
Tigre) is sufficient and satisfactory.]
