The followers of Eon, a wild fanatic, of the province of Bretague, in the twelfth century: he concluded, from the resemblance between eum, in the form of exorcising malignant spirits, viz. "per eum qui venturus est judicare vivos et mortuos, " and his own name Eon, that he was the son of God, and ordained to judge the quick and dead. Eon was, however, solemnly condemned by the council at Rheims, in 1148, and ended his days in a prison. He left behind him a number of followers, whom persecution and death, so weakly and cruelly employed, could not persuade to abandon his cause, or to renounce an absurdity, which, says Mosheim, one would think, could never have gained credit but in such a place as Bedlam.
