Taking into account the country north of lat. 24 degrees 45 minutes only for though we had a long spell of sand-ridges between the edge of the desert and Woodhouse Lagoon, and again between that point and Lake Wells, yet these were comparatively low and less steep than those further north, and therefore their extent is not included in this reckoning we traversed 420 miles on the upgoing journey, and 451 miles on the return journey that is, 871 miles of actual travelling over a desert of sand blown by the wind into parallel ridges of the height and frequency already described.
Menzel's History of Germany, vol. ii. pp. 345, 346. But this miserable prospect, both of political and religious thraldom, was dissolved by the great Gustavus Adolphus being invited by the Protestant princes of Germany to espouse the cause of the Reformed religion, being himself of that persuasion." Tytler's Univ. Hist., vol. ii. p. 451.
In allusion to the provision of Magna Carta on this subject, Hallam says: "A law which enacts that justice shall neither be sold, denied, nor delayed, stamps with infamy that government under which it had become necessary." 2 Middle Ages, 451.

No place among bishops, because the canon of 381 and the canons of 451 had not been received. Thus, in his great letter to all the Illyrian bishops, he asks: "Of what see was he bishop? Of what metropolitan church was he the prelate? Was it not of a church the suffragan of Heraclea? We laugh at the claim of a prerogative for Acacius because he was bishop of the imperial city.

Tradition indeed ascribes to them the spurious Nicene creed of our Communion Service, with the exception of two later insertions the clause 'God of God, and the procession of the Holy Spirit 'from the Son' as well as 'from the Father. The story is an old one, for it can be traced back to one of the speakers at the council of Chalcedon in 451.
