Pschoi stands trial under the hegemon Culcianus and refuses to sacrifice to Apollo and Artemis.
Fragment 4, lines 110–124 seem to suggest that the saint has performed some sort of impressive miracle. He later gets imprisoned, presumably after being tortured for refusing to sacrifice to Apollo and Artemis. Christ then releases him from prison and heals the wounds inflicted on his body (fragment a).
