57 Ruf. H. E. i. 11; Soc. i. 25, 26, 33.
58 This letter of the emperor is in Soc. i. 25.
59 Soc. i. 26, verbal variations. Both probably from Sabinus.
60 Ruf. H. E, i. 11; Soc. i. 33. For the letter of the Synod, cf. Athan. de Synodis, 21; a part is also given in Apol. cont. Arian. 84.

62 Ruf. H. E. i. 12, 13; Soc. i. 37, 38; Athan. Ep. ad Serapion, and ad Episcop. Aegypt. et Lib. 19. Soz. follows Athan. and Ruf. Athan. says he derived his statements from Macarius, a presbyter, an eye-witness of some of the events narrated in this chapter and the next.

66 Sozomen speaks with favor of the Novatians, though not with the earnestness of Socrates.
67 Soc. i. 36. Soz. has more detail as to Asterius, and better order; both probably took from the same source. Compare the attitude of Athan. toward Marcellus.

69 Eus. V. C. iv. 61-75; Ruf. H. E. i. 11; Soc. i. 38-40; cf. Philost. ii. 16, 17. Cf. Eutrop. Brev. hist. Rom. x. 7, 8.

3 This chapter follows the order of Soc. ii. 2-5. Cf. Philost. ii. 18.
4 This letter is translated in Athan. Apol. cont. Arian. 87; the original was in Latin, and Athan. probably translated it.
7 The mention of Aquileia, which is omitted by Socrates, shows consultation with another source. The statement of the agents in his death is different also.
8 Cf. Soc. ii. 6. While the order of events is the same, Soz. had a different source, for he makes additions. Cf. Athan. Hist. Arian. 7.
10 adiaforoj bioj, literally "an indifferent life." St. Nilus, St. Basil, and others of the Christian Fathers use this phrase as opposed to an ascetic life.
