a bishop who wrote (A.D. 252) to Cyprian to assure him of his adherence to him and Cornelius against Novatian. He was afterwards much shaken by a letter from Novatian defending his doctrine and accusing pope Cornelius of laxity. Cyprian seems, however, to have convinced him of the excellence of Cornelius's life and policy as well as of the danger of Novatian's rigor.
