Note 059
From Chapter 47 of the Decline & Fall

Dixi Cyrillum dum viveret, auctoritate sua effecisse, ne Eutychianismus et Monophysitarum error in nervum erumperet: idque verum puto ...aliquo ... honesto modoAncient Greek cecinerat.

The learned but cautious Jablonski did not always speak the whole truth.

Cum Cyrillo lenius omnino egi, quam si tecum aut cum aliis rei hujus probe gnaris et aequis rerum aestimatoribus sermones privatos conferrem (Thesaur. Epistol. La Crozian. tom. i. p. 197, 198.),

an excellent key to his dissertations on the Nestorian controversy!
