See the Liber Pontificalis of Agnellus, (in
the Scriptores Rerum Italicarum of Muratori, tom. ii. pars
i.,) whose deeper shade of barbarism marks the difference
between Rome and Ravenna. Yet we are indebted to him for

of Ravenna, (p. 154,) the revenge of Justinian II, (p. 160,
161,) the defeat of the Greeks, (p. 170, 171,) &c.]
