[Footnote *: Except the omission of a prayer for the
emperor, the charges against Arsenius were of different
nature: he was accused of having allowed the sultan of
Iconium to bathe in vessels signed with the cross, and to
have admitted him to the church, though unbaptized, during
the service. It was pleaded, in favor of Arsenius, among
other proofs of the sultan's Christianity, that he had
offered to eat ham. Pachymer, l. iv. c. 4, p. 265. It was
after his exile that he was involved in a charge of
conspiracy. - M.]
