μετὰ τῶν
ἐν
ὑποπτώσει.
The ὑποπίπτοντες
or substrati constituted the third and chief station in
the oriental system of penance, the first and second being the
προσκλαίοντες,
flentes or weepers, and the
ἀκροώμενος,
audientes, or hearers. In the Western
Church it is the substrati who are commonly referred to as being
in penitence, and the Latin versions of the Canons of Ancyra by
Dionysius Exiguus and Martin of Braga render ὑποπίπτοντες
and ὑποπτῶσις by
pœnitentis and pœnitentia. In
Basil’s Canon xxii. p. 238, this station is specially
styled μετάνοια.
cf. D.C.A. ii. 1593.
“Μετάνοια
notat pœnitentiam eorum qui ob delicta sua in
ecclesia ἐπιτιμίοις
ἐσωφρονίζοντο
(Zonaras, Ad. Can. v. Conc. Antioch, p. 327),
quique dicebantur οἰ ἐν
μετανοιᾳ
ὄντες. Chrysostom,
Hom. iii. in Epist. ad Eph. in S.
Cœnæ communione clamabat κήρυξ,
ὅσοι ἐν
μετανοί& 139·
ἀπέλθετε
πάντες.” Suicer
