Jerome. Lives of Illustrious Men 131

St Jerome (AD 345–420) · De viris illustribus · PL 23, 598–720

131 Theotimus the bishop PL 23, 715

Theotimus, bishop of Tomi, in Scythia, has published brief and epigrammatical treatises, in the form of dialogues, and in olden style. I hear that he is now writing other works.

Theotimus, Scythiae Tomorum episcopus, in morem dialogorum et veteris eloquentiae breves commaticosque tractatus edidit. Audio eum et alia scribere.

Θεότιμος Σκυθίας Τομέων ἐπίσκοπος ἐν τάξει διαλόγων καὶ ἀρχαίας φράσεως βραχείας ὁμιλίας ἐξέδωκεν. Ἀκούω τοῦτον καὶ ἄλλα συγγράφειν.
