φυγαδευτήριον, the word commonly used in the Septuagint for “a city of refuge.” But the Verb φυγαδεύω is Transitive in 2 Macc. ix. 4, as well as in Xenophon and Demosthenes. The application of the blood of Christ in Baptism is represented by marking the sign of the Cross on the forehead. Compare the lines of Prudentius quoted by the Benedictine Editor: “Passio quæ nostram defendit sanguine frontem, Corporeamque domum signato collinit ore.”
