BASILIUS. Latin
form of Greek Basileios
(q.v.), meaning "kingly." (History of Christian Names,
Yonge, 1884). Also see English Basil.
... The largest are the
monasteries of Ivoron and St. Laura; the richest, Vatopædi.
The entire number of monks who inhabit the "Holy Hill" is
about 8000. They
form a kind of monastic republic under the Turkish government, to which
they pay an annual tribute of nearly £4000. The monks follow the
rule of Basilius, and lead an ascetic life, engaged chiefly in
agriculture, gardening, and the care of bees. (Chambers's
Encyclopedia, 1874)
