Nicene and Post-Nicene Fathers: Series II/Volume II/Socrates/Book VII/Chapter 9
Chapter IX.—The Bishops of Antioch and Rome.
During this period upon the death of Flavian[1]
Porphyry received the episcopate of Antioch, and after him Alexander[2]
was set over that church. But at Rome, Damasus having held that bishopric eighteen years Siricius succeeded him;[3]
and Siricius having presided there fifteen years, Anastasius held sway
over the church for three years; after Anastasius Innocent [was
promoted to the same see]. He was the first persecutor of the Novatians
at Rome, and many of their churches he took away.
