Cyclopedia of Biblical, Theological and Ecclesiastical Literature
was a noble Roman matron, a letter to whom is included among those of St. Jerome (Epist. 148, ed. Vall.), though it is probably by some other hand. The letter is full of moderate councils as to asceticism, and blames her for taking a vow of continence without her husband's consent.
