CHAPTER XII. 



THE GREAT NAMES THAT APPEAR DUR- 

 ING THE GENERAL COUNCILS. 



We must glance back again over the period 

 of three centuries, to look at the names of 

 some of those who became prominent in the 

 Church. Some of them loom up as Bishops who 

 extended the power of the Church, others as writers 

 who explained the Christian system, and others as 

 the founders of societies for promoting works of 

 charity and holiness of life.
