Read also the attack of Gregory of Nyssa[34] on Eunomius in
defence of St. Basil. His style is as brilliant as that of any
rhetorician, and agreeable to listen to. He does not refute Eunomius
in detail, and is consequently briefer than Theodore, but fuller
than Sophronius. He is fond of using enthymemes[35] and arguments
from example. But I can say without partiality that the copiousness
and fertility of his arguments are as convincing a proof of his
superiority to Theodore as the charm, brilliancy, and pleasantness of
his style.
