heophilus, and i^eioponnese. His perj /3p^7/£3^i^ ■ The Golden Gate favoured him again in making him acquainted with a wealthy widow, Danielis, who adopted him as her son. This youth was Basil I — the founder of the Macedonian Dynasty, whom we saw in that proud pageant of victorious Emperors passing under the Porta Aurea.
