1Chapter 6 — Polycarp is betrayed by a servant.
2And when those who sought for him were at hand, he departed to another dwelling, whither his pursuers immediately came after him.
3And when they found him not, they seized upon two youths that were there, one of whom, being subjected to torture, confessed.
4It was thus impossible that he should continue hid, since those that betrayed him were of his own household.
5The Irenarch then (whose office is the same as that of the Cleronomus), by name Herod, hastened to bring him into the stadium.
6This all happened that he might fulfil his special lot, being made a partaker of Christ, and that they who betrayed him might undergo the punishment of Judas himself.
