"We'll blow them out of space, Mr. Samms!" he declared. "You just think you will, Captain.
The Surenas himself, accompanied by another satrap, * appeared in the camp of Jovian; and declared, that the clemency of his sovereign was not averse to signify the conditions on which he would consent to spare and to dismiss the Cæsar with the relics of his captive army.

"Jovian to Athanasius, the faithful servant of God," it ran.
