The Acts of St. Peter

THE ACTS OF ST. PETER, otherwise called the Voyages of St. Peter, Periodi Petri, which we have at present under another title, Recognitiones sancti Clementis, are much longer than they were formerly. This is a book stuffed with vi sions and fables, that come originally from the school of the Ebionites1.
