First, it is certain, that in all that Epistle, S. Cyprian never gave unto Cornelius any such ambitious Title, but only calleth him by the name of Brother. For thus he saluteth him.1 Cyprian unto his Brother Cornelius sendeth greeting: And maketh his entry in this wise: Deere Brother, I have read your letters. Thus S. Cyprian being Bishop of Carthage claimeth brotherhood, and equality with the Pope. One special occasion of his writing unto Cornelius, was this amongst others: Cornelius being Bishop of Rome, and having Excommunicate certain notorious wicked men, and afterward being threatened, and il used at their hands, began to faint, and to be weary of his office. S. Cyprian hearing thereof, wrote comfortably unto him, & willed him in any wise to proceed, and to deal boldly, & not to yield, considering it was Gods cause, and not his aw•e.
