ℹ️ This corpus has no morphological tagging. Glosses are matched by word form against a dictionary — a match does not prove it is the same word (an inflected form can coincide with another word’s lemma). Verify against the original and a specialist lexicon where precision matters.

After him Valentinian took up the empire, who had been expelled from military service by Julian for the sake of our faith. But the Lord fulfilled in him what He had promised, restoring to him in the present age even more than a hundredfold. For because he had left military service for Christ's sake, he received the empire. He took his brother Valens into partnership of the kingdom, and chose for himself the Western parts, but left the Eastern to his brother. But Valens, by favoring heretics, went off in the way of his fathers. For he drove bishops into exile, and brought presbyters and deacons and monks (Tatian presiding at Alexandria) even to tortures, and handed them over to the flames. And he contrived many wicked and cruel things against the Church of God. But all these things were after the death of Athanasius.
For while that man yet survived, as though restrained by a certain divine power, although he raged against the rest, he dared commit nothing grievous against him.
