The bearing of this document on the time of Polycarp's martyrdom will be discussed<br />

The passage is given above, p. 145.<br />

Ann. Abr.<br />

Pisis ignem ascendit Peregrinus, etc.<br />

Persecutione ecclesiam occupante Policarpus martirium subiit,<br />

cuiusque martyrium scriptis (traditum) memoratur. Multi<br />

etiam in Gallia fortiter martyrium passi sunt, quorum certamina<br />

hucusque sane ex ordine scripta extant.<br />

Thus the notice of Polycarp's martyrdom<br />

is not placed opposite the 7th year of<br />

M. Aurelius, but after it, and is associated with the persecution at Vienne and Lyons.<br />

The bearing of this arrangement will be discussed below. On the other hand Jerome<br />

in his edition of the Chronicon places both persecutions opposite the 7th year of<br />

M. Aurelius, though the latter took place a.d. 177. See below, p. 561.<br />

The corresponding words in Syncellus are, X^okvKo.pizo'i o tcpwraTo<br />
