"To conclude what I have to say of this princess, I shall add
here, after M. de Tillemont, that St. Athanasius _took her to be
a Jewess_, meaning, without doubt, _in respect of her religion_;

that he was only a mere man, who had nothing in his nature
superior to other men, nor was distinguished from them any
otherwise than by a more abundant participation of the divine
grace."--Crevier, _Hist. of Rom. Emperors_, Book 27. "Aurelian,"
vol. ix. p. 174.
M. Crevier refers to "Tillem. Aur. art. 5."

_Temple Stanyan_ wrote a History of Greece, 1751, which was common when
I was at school, and another book, as Watts says. If the question is
