EUsebius, Socrates, and Theodoret amongst the Greeks: Primasius, and Austin amongst the Latines do not distinguish betwixt these two Ominous names, Novatus, and Novatianus. But St. Cyprian, in his 49. Epistle, shews plainly that they were of two distinct persons, though agreeing too well in Schism and Heresie. Novatus was an African (new Monster,) a Preshyter in the Church of Carthage, (where S. Cyprian was Bishop) vir sui nominis; for he was Rerum novarum semper Cupidus, disobedient to his Bishop, spightful against the Order, unnatural to his Father (who dyed for hunger and lay too long unburied) unfaithful to the Orphan, the Widdow, the Church-stock, unkind to his wife, whom he made to miscarry with a kick. (Damnat sacrificantium manus ipse nocentior pedibus, says S. Cyprian.) Thus qualified, fearing Excommunication, He fled to Rome, and joyned with Novatianus a Roman Presbyter, who was, about that time, brewing his Schism against Cornelius Bishop of Rome: These Two were the Ring∣leaders of the Sect of the Cathari. See S. Cyprian. Epist. 49. (and Epist. 51. 52.) with Rigaltius his Notes.
