		He was a member of the illustrious family which produced St. Eustachius, who had been his predecessor, and also St. Volusianus, who became his successor in the same episcopal see.
		Appointed about 460, he guided the Church of Tours for thirty years, and it is apparent, from what little information we have, that during his administration Christianity was considerably developed and consolidated in Touraine.
		He maintained a careful surveillance over the conduct of the clergy of his diocese, and mention is made of priests who were removed from their office because they had proved unworthy.

		It is conventional to say flatly that Volusianus was a pagan; it is true that he received baptism only on his deathbed in 437 in Constantinople, and then at the pressing instance of Melania; from the clearly pagan side, Rutilius Namatianus was a friend and spoke fondly of him.
		Nothing forbids us to think Volusianus a politely interested, politely noncommittal figure, not unlike the A. of 385, who used his status as catechumen to advance his career and who attended Ambrose's sermons out of curiosity and prudence.
		It is not likely he would speak so harshly if Volusianus were the target of his words; but there must have been others, Christian in name whose doubts and hesitations were the real source of unease that made A.

		MOREOVER there is between Him and all the saints the same difference that there is between a dwelling and one who dwells in it, for certainly it is the doing of the dweller not the dwelling, if it is inhabited, for on him it depends both to build the house and to occupy it.
		All, then, whether patriarchs, or prophets, or apostles, or martyrs, or saints, had every one of them God within him, and were all made sons of God and were all receivers of God (Theodochoi), but in a very different and distinct way.

		From the other part of the rational creation -- that is, mankind -- although it had perished as a whole through sins and punishments, both original and personal, God had determined that a portion of it would be restored and would fill up the loss which that diabolical disaster had caused in the angelic society.
