bishop of
Alexandria, hard pressed by the wiles of the Arians, fled to Constans
emperor of Gaul. Returning thence with letters and, after the death of
the emperor, again taking refuge in flight, he kept in hiding until the
accession of Jovian, when he returned to the church and died in the
reign of Valens. Various works by him are in circulation; two books
Against the nations, one Against Valens and Ursacius, On
virginity, very many On the persecutions of the Arians, also
On the titles of the Psalms and Life of Anthony the monk,
also Festal epistles and other works too numerous to
