It is also stated that Publius, bishop of the church
at Athens, a good and pious man, was slain for the
name of Christ; likewise, Barsimæus, bishop of the
church at Edessa, and with him, Barbelius and his
sister Barba, who had been baptized by him; all of
whom, steadfastly contending for the truth, obtained
the martyrs’ crown. Compare Joh. Gysii Hist.
