Exhortation to the people that they bring heave offerings of prayers and confessions to God, and that they honour the Bishop as \they honour] God, and reverence him, and that they do nothing apart from his permission, nor even give alms to those that are in need without him ; but make everything known to him by means of the Deacon, and he will administer whatever is given, and that every one of the orders of the Church take its place and be honoured as befits it ; condemnation and commination on those who speak zvickedly to priests or despise them ; that they think of them as of their kings, that they take them gifts from their labour for the supply of the need of the poor and tJie orphans and the widoivs, making no reckoning with them, as to whether they give or do not give.
