succeeded Benedict I as pope of Rome in 579. He was likewise embroiled in disputes concerning the Three Chapters above mentioned. In the mean time a council which assembled at Constantinople bestowed on the patriarch of that city the title of oecumenic, or "universal" bishop, at which Pelagius was greatly offended. He died at Rome in 590, and was succeeded by Gregory I. Ten of his Epistles and six Decrees are extant in the Concilia, tom. 5.
