Sabrisho's patriarchate

The following account of Sabrisho's patriarchate is given by Bar Hebraeus:

Yahballaha II was succeeded by Sabrisho, his nephew by his brother, also as a result of the gold which he conveyed to the governor by the hand of the celebrated Amin al-Dawla Abu'lkarim, son of Thomas, namely 7,000 dinars. He died on the second Sunday of the month, on the eighth day of the sixth month of the year 622 of the Arabs (AD 1225/6), and was buried next to his uncle. He was succeeded by Sabrisho bar Masihi.Bar Hebraeus, ''Ecclesiastical Chronicle'' (ed. Abeloos and Lamy), ii. 372
