or Serpentiniaiis. Tbey beld that SopkuL (Wisdom) found means to preserve in every age in this world, wiiichtbe Deminige bad created, a race bearing witbin them a sptritoal nature similar to ber own, and intent upon opposing tbe ^rrannj of tbe Demituge. The Cain- ites regarded Cain as tbecbief of tbis race. They hon- ored Cain, and the evil characters of Scripture gener- ally, on the ground that, in proportion to tbe hatred, such characters evinced of the laws of tbe God of this world (the Demiarge), tlie more worthily did they act as the sons of iSopUa, whose chief work is to destroy the kingdom of the Demiurge. For the same reason, they hoiraced Korah, Dathan, and Abiram, as well as the in- habitants of Sodom, and Judas Iscariot, whom they re- garded as procuring the death of Christ from tbe purest motives; for he knew that this was the only possible way of effecting the destmctioft of the Demiurge*s kiagdom.

Gains or Oains, a presbyter of the Church of Rome, who flourished about 210, in the time of Zephy- rinus and CalUstus. Photius calls him r&v IBvw iriincoxoc, a designation the meaning of which is not dear. When at Rome, he held a celebrated disputa- tion with Produs, tbe head of a sect of Montanists, which be afterward reduced to writing in tbe form of dialogues. Eusebins quotes fragments of this work in Hb. ii, cap. 25, and also in lib. iii, cap. 28, and lib. vi, cap. 20. Caius also wrote a book called The LoHnf^ riafi, and another against Artemon, unless the former be the same with the work attributed to Origen, as Cave supposes. Ensebius gives an extract from tbe Partvu Labyrintkus against Artemon and Theodotus, lib. V, cap. 28. Photius also attributes to this Cains a Traatiae on the Universe, but both this and the ** Lab- yrinth** are now attributed to Hippolytus.

Cains or Qaitis, a Dalmatian, elected bishop of Borne in 288, and is said to have suffered martyrdom onder Diocletian, April 21, 296. His epistle was edit- ed, with notes, etc., by Csbs. Becillus, a priest of the oratory of Urbino, and subjoined to the Acts of his HartTTdom, published at Bome in 1628. — ^Landon, s. v.
Cains, John (Kaye or Key, Latinized* into Caku), H.D., was bom at Norwich Oct. 6, 1510, and became successively first physician to Edward Y I, Mary, and Elizabeth. He died July 20, 1578. He founded the col- lege which bears hia name at Cambridge for twenty- three students. He was a good classical scholar, and wrote many treatises on subjects connected with medi- ciiie and natural history. He published also a treatise on the antiquity of the University of Cambridge (which he states was founded by one Cantaber^ 894 years before CMQ, and another on tbe pronunciation of Greek and Latm. His tomb still remains hi Caius College, with only this inscription, ** Fui Caius.*' — ^Landon, s. v.
Cajetan (Gabtako Tommaso di Yio), cardinal, ramamed from Gafita, where he was bom, Feb. 20, 1469 (others say July 25,1470). His proper name was Jacob, hot he assumed that of Thomas in honor of Thomas Aqmnas. At fifteen he became a Dominican, and in Ifi^ he was made general of his order. In 1517 Leo X made him cardinal, and also his legate m Germany, the prindpal object of his mission being to bring back Lather to tbe obedience of the Holy See before his Kpsiation was finally completed. Cajetan fulfilled his Bisaon in a hanghty and imperious manner, and noth- ing eame of it. In 1519 he was appointed to tbe see
of Gaita, after which he was employed in other mis-
lioos, and died at Borne fai 1584. He published a Ter-
sion o/Oe 0, T, (Libr,Vet Test.) (Lyons, 1689, 5 vols, fol.): — In Summam Thoma AqmnaUs Comment,: — Opiseula (among which is his treatise on the authority of the pope, in which he gives vent to the eztremeet views of ultra-montanism, and which was refrited by order of the fkoulty of Paris) : — Traetatus de compara- Hone pcqm et conaUi (Venice, 1581). His works are collected, and somewhat modified (Lyons, 1689, fol.). — Mosheim, Ch. Hist, iii, 28 note; Ho^er, Now. Biog. GMrale, viii, 142 ; H(nrne, BibUoy. Appendix, pt i, ch. i,8ect 4»
Cake (represented by several Heb. words ; see be- low). The Hebrews used various sorts of cakes, which was the form usually given to Oriental bread (2 Sam. vi, 19; 1 Kings xvii, 12). See Loaf. They were leavened or unleavened. They also offlBred cakes in the Temple made of wheat or of barley, kneaded some- times with oO and sometimes with honey. For the purposes of offering, these cakes were salted, but un- leavened (Exod. xxiz, 2 ; Lev. 11, 4). In Jer. vii, 18 ; xliv, 19, we read of the Hebrews kneading their dough **to midce cakes to the queen of heaven*' [see Abhto- rbth], which appears to have been, fh>m early times, an idolatrous practice, and was also the custom of the Greeks and Romans. The ancient £g3rptians also made offisrings of cakes to their deities. In Hosea vii, 8, Ephrahn is caUed ** a cake not turned.*' This figura- tive expression illustrates the mixture of truth and idolatry (Jews and Grentiles among the Ephraimites) by dough baked on one side only, and, therefore, nei- ther dough nor bread.
