Cyprian, greeting. Know that, to
all, concerning whom the account of what they have done since the
commission of their sin has been, in your estimation, satisfactory, we
have granted peace; and we have desired that this rescript should be
made known by you to the other bishops also. We bid you to have
peace with the holy martyrs. Lucianus wrote this, there being
present of the clergy, both an exorcist and a
reader.
