Note 026
Pachymer (l. vii. c. 22) relates this
miraculous trial like a philosopher, and treats with similar
contempt a plot of the Arsenites, to hide a revelation in
the coffin of some old saint, (l. vii. c. 13.) He
compensates this incredulity by an image that weeps, another
that bleeds, (l. vii. c. 30,) and the miraculous cures of a
deaf and a mute patient, (l. xi. c. 32.)]
