Epistle LI.
To Maximianus, Bishop.
Gregory to Maximinianus, Bishop of
Syracuse1499 .
My brethren who live with me familiarly urge me by
all means to write something briefly about the miracles of the Fathers
done in Italy, which we have heard of. With this view I am in
great need of the assistance of your Charity, to mention to me shortly
what comes back to your memory, and what you happen to have
known. For I remember your telling me something, which I have now
forgotten, about the Lord1500
1500 Domno.
“Abbas autem, quia vices Christi agere creditur, Domnus et Abbas
vocetur.” Regula S. Benedicti, c.
63. | Abbot Nonnosus, who was with the
Lord1501
1501 Domno.
“Abbas autem, quia vices Christi agere creditur, Domnus et Abbas
vocetur.” Regula S. Benedicti, c.
63. | Anastasius of
Pentomi1502
1502 The miracles
attributed to Nonnosus, which are here referred to, are told in
Dialog. I. 7, as having been communicated to Gregory by
Maximianus and an old monk called Laurio. Nonnosos, at the time
when they were wrought, had been Prior under Anastasius of a monastery
on the summit of Mount Soracte. | . And
therefore this, or anything else, I beg thee to communicate to me by
letter without delay, if indeed thou art not intending to come to me
thyself shortly.E.C.F. INDEX & SEARCH
