 | | Gratian, as he rose from supper, was delivered into the hands of the assassin: and his body was denied to the pious and pressing entreaties of his brother Valentinian. | | | Gratian was amused by protestations of doubtful fidelity, and the hopes of a support, which could not be effectual; till the arrival of Andragathius, the general of the cavalry of Maximus, put an end to his suspense. | | | From the liberality of Gratian, he had received the Imperial diadem; his patience would encourage the odious suspicion, that he was more deeply sensible of former injuries, than of recent obligations; and if he accepted the friendship, he must seem to share the guilt, of the assassin. |

| | Both sources describe an attempt to assassinate an emperor, whom they identify as Gratian but the date, location, and general circumstances of the attempt suggest that the anecdote which lies at their heart had originally described a plot to assassinate Theodosius. | | | This was the only charge which Theodosius could seriously have held against him in 383, that he had risen to power through the assassination of a legitimate emperor. | | | This was the campaign which Valentinian himself had been planning when he died. |

| | (Gratian) aroused the hatred of the troops against himself when he neglected the army and preferred to the venerable Roman soldier a few from the Alans whom he had arrogated to himself by an immense payment of gold, and with the retinue of barbarians he had almost even begun to have friendship. | | | Gratian, who was but recently married and youthful, as well as passionately attached to his wife, hastened incautiously across the river, and in his anxiety to meet her fell without forethought into the hands of Andragathius; he was seized, and, in a little while, put to death. | | | Within four months subsequently they killed Gratian, and elected Constantine in his place, imagining that, on account of his name, he would be able to reduce the empire firmly under his authority. |

| | Gratian |
| | The labors of Gratian are said to have been rewarded with the bishopric of Chiusi, but if so he appears never to have been consecrated; at least his name is not in any authentic list of those who have occupied that see. | | | Franciscus Gratianus, usually referred to as Gratian, compiler of the Concordia discordantium canonum or Decretum Gratiani, and founder of the science of canon law, was born about the end of the 11th century at Chiusi in Tuscany or, according to another account, at Carraria near Orvieto. | | | The precise date of this work cannot be ascertained, but it contains references to the decisions of the Lateran council of 1139, and there is fair authority for believing that it was completed while Pope Alexander III was still simply professor of theology at Bologna -- in other words, prior to 1150. |

| | At the time of his accession (375) he refused the insignia of pontifex maximus, which even Constantine and the other Christian emperors had always accepted. | | | Gratian did not go so far as to confer upon the Church the privileges and emoluments which he took from the pagans, but he gave proof of his zeal by undoing the effects of Valens's persecution, and by taking measures for the suppression of various forms of heresy. | | | Though in general his policy was one of toleration, he made apostasy a crime punishable by the State (383). |

| | For his sacramental doctrine, Gratian is very useful, especially through the quotations adduced by him and his legal attitude toward these questions. | | | Christ merited glorification by his life, and by his death man's entrance into Paradise, his liberation from sin and its penalty and from the power of the devil. | | | Whether Peter had himself seen the early writers whom he cites is frequently uncertain. |

| | As has been said, the Decretum which became the accepted text in the Bolognese law-school was not the work which left Gratian's hands. | | | Abbreviations of the Decretum were written during the twelfth and thirteenth century (see Abbreuiatio Decreti); and there were several attempts to reorganize and rework the Decretum, the most important being that of Laborans (See Transformatio Decreti and Laborans). | | | The contemporary view seems to be, however, that the word palea means `chaff': texts which were winnowed by Gratian but were then added back to his good grain by canonists of the mid-twelfth century. |
