On the Advantage of Patience
On the Advantage of Patience.
Argument.--Cyprian Himself Briefly Sets Forth the Occasion of This Treatise at the Conclusion of His Epistle to Jubaianus as Follows: "Charity of Spirit, the Honour of Our College, the Bond of Faith, and Priestly Concord, are Maintained by Us with Patience and Gentleness. For This Reason, Moreover, We Have, with the Best of Our Poor Abilities, by the Permission and Inspiration of the Lord, Written a Pamphlet On the Benefit of Patience,' Which, for the Sake of Our Mutual Love, We Have Transmitted to You." a.d. 256.
