Summary: Other bishops sharply urged Victor to keep peace.

Greek text · Dindorf 4:232

ἀλλʼ οὐ πᾶσί γε τοῖς ἐπισκόποις ταὐτʼ ἠρέσκετο. ἀντιπαρακελεύονται δῆτα αὐτῷ τὰ τῆς εἰρήνης καὶ τῆς πρὸς τοὺς πλησίον ἑνώσεως τε καὶ ἀγάπης φρονεῖν. φέρονται δὲ καὶ αἱ τούτων φωναὶ, πληκτικώτερον καθαπτομένων τοῦ Βίκτορος.

English · Claude translation

But this did not please all the bishops. They urged him in turn to consider the things of peace and of unity and love toward his neighbours. Their words are extant, rebuking Victor rather sharply.
