IIII. Marciani Augusti et Adelfi
Leone pontifice sedem beati Petri regente sexcentorum triginta patrum sancta et universalis synodus contra Eutychetem nefandissimorum praesulem monachorum apud Calchedonam in basilica sanctae Eufemiae firmata est: solus Dioscorus Alexandrinae ecclesiae episcopus dissensit statimque ab iisdem catholicis patribus sacerdotio abdicatus est.
'4th indiction, consulship of Marcian Augustus and Adelphius [= 451]
While Leo was ruling as pontiff in the see of Blessed Peter a holy and universal synod of six hundred and thirty fathers was declared in the basilica of Saint Euphemia in Chalcedon against Eutyches, leader of the most impious monks. Only Dioscorus, bishop of Alexandria, disagreed and he was immediately removed from his bishopric by these same catholic fathers.
