Note 062
Moses of Chorene takes no notice of this second
revolution, which I have been obliged to collect from a
passage of Ammianus Marcellinus (l. xxiii. c. 5). Lactantius
speaks of the ambition of Narses: "Concitatus domesticis
exemplis avi sui Saporis ad occupandum orientem magnis
copiis inhiabat." De Mort. Persecut. c. 9.
