The story of our Christianity; an account of the struggles, persecutions, wars, and victories of Christians of all times . thirst. In this extremityrelief came (according to the tale) from the prayers of the twelfth legion, which was largely composed of Christians. As they rose from their knees aheavy storm burst over their heads, and the Romans presently gained avictory. The Christian writers of the third century claimed that Aureliushad acknowledged this service, and become more favorable to the Church onaccount of it.

The attack began with an outbreak offanatical fury on the part of the populace, and was carried on through thehands of officers scarcely less savage than the mob. In the midst of it thegovernor sent to Rome for instructions, and was told to execute those whowould not recant. But he far exce
