178 And, as is gathered from the Chronicles of Martin, Castrensis and Rudolph, (1) Pope Boniface was presiding at Rome A. D. 420, and Eulalius having been ordained in opposition to him and the church being divided on the question, both by the command of Honorius Augustus left the city; and, Eulalius being condemned, Boniface, who had previously been ordained, was by the command of Augustus restored to the apostolic seat.

(2) A. D. 493 Laurentius was ordained over against Pope Symmachus by a dissident faction.

(3) A. D. 768 the schismatic pope Constantine was deprived of his eyes, and Stephen was made pope. The latter assembled a synod at Rome and reordained those who had been ordained by the schismatic Constantine.

(4) A. D. 873 Pope Anastasius invaded the præsulate as against Benedict.
