Note 004
Before the shrine of St. Peter he placed two
shields of the weight of 94 1/2 pounds of pure silver; on
which he inscribed the text of both creeds, (utroque
symbolo,) pro amore et cautelâ orthodoxae fidei, (Anastas.
in Leon. III. in Muratori, tom. iii. pars. i. p. 208.) His
language most clearly proves, that neither the filioque, nor
the Athanasian creed were received at Rome about the year
830.
