Translation

"[When he was expelled from Antioch] for being troublesome and turbulent he fell like a tempest or a hurricane on the church of the Alexandrians."

Greek original · Adler’s text

Ταραξίας· ὁ δὲ ὡς ταραχώδης καὶ ταραξίας ἐπέσκηψε τῇ Ἀλεξανδρέων ἐκκλησίᾳ λαίλαπος δίκην ἢ θυέλλης.

Betacode
*taraci/as: o( de\ w(s taraxw/dhs kai\ taraci/as e)pe/skhye th=| *)alecandre/wn e)kklhsi/a| lai/lapos di/khn h)\ que/llhs. 

Notes

  1. The headword is a rare noun derived from the verb tara/ssw (tau 116). This excerpt from George the Monk (on Severus of Antioch) is quoted already at sigma 271. Here e)kklhsi/a| ('on the church') has replaced koufo/thti ('on the frivolity'). George's original also has stasiw/dhs ('factious') rather than taraxw/dhs ('troublesome').
