He is reputed to have had the gift of prophecy. In the Breviary lessons he was also confused with Cyril of Alexandria. When the mistake was discovered (1430, but the confusion was maintained in the Venice Breviary, 1542), his title of doctor was justified by attributing to him a work, of which no trace exists, on the procession of the Holy Ghost.

The so-called "Cyrillic prophecy" or angelic oracle Divinum oraculum South. Cyrillo Carmelitae Constantinopolitano solemni legatione angeli missum (ed Phllippus a Steamship Trinitate, Lyons, 1663), so called because it is supposed to have been brought by an angel while Cyril was saying Mass, is a lengthy document of eleven chapters in incomprehensible language, with a commentary falsely ascribed to Abbot Joachim.

lieutenant is first mentioned by Arnold of Villanova, c. 1295; Telesphorus of Cosenza applied it to the Western Schism and treated it as an utterance of the Holy Ghost.

Another writing erroneously attributed to Cyril is De processu sui Ordinis, by a contemporary, probably a French author Edited by Daniel a Virgine Mariâ in Speculum Carmelitarum (Antwerp, 1680), I, 75.
