Among them, the virgin Potamiœna is particularly distinguished. She first endured many most painful trials for the preservation of her virginity, and then cruel and unheard-of torments for the faith, after which she and her mother were consumed with fire."[5]
  3. ^ Born in Asia Minor, he was a disciple of St Polycarp, who was a disciple of the Apostle John the Divine. He went to France and became Bishop of Lyons (c 177), where he was later martyred. His writings against Gnosticism are a witness to Apostolic Tradition.
  4. ^ "At Lyons, in France, St. Irenaeus, bishop and martyr, who, as is related by St. Jerome, was the disciple of blessed Polycarp, bishop of Smyrna, and lived near the time of the Apostles. After having strenuously opposed the heretics by speech and writing, he was crowned with a glorious martyrdom, with almost all the people of his city, during the persecution of Severus."[5]
  5. ^ "The same day, during the persecution of Diocletian, St. Papius, martyr, who was scourged with knotted cords, cast into a caldron of seething oil and grease, and after other horrible torments, was decapitated, and thus won an eternal crown."[5]
  6. ^ A disciple of St Mewan or Mevan of Cornwall. He probably lived in the area where the place-name preserves his memory.
  7. ^ His relics were uncovered there in 996.
  8. ^ "At Maestricht, St. Benignus, bishop and martyr."[5]
  9. ^ "Little or nothing is known of this saint, except that she was a daughter of Clovis, king of the Franks; and that she obtained from him a grant of lands at Sens, where she founded the convent of S. Pierre-le-Vif, into which she retired, and where she died."[24]

  11. ^ Born in Cabra near Cordoba in Spain, he held a high position among the Muslims of the city. He was deprived of his office on account of his faith and became a monk. Shortly afterwards he openly renounced Islam, confessed Christ and was beheaded.
  12. ^ "At Cordova, St. Argymirus, monk and martyr, who was slain for the faith of Christ during the persecution of the Arabs."[5]
  13. ^ He restored the monastery at Flavigny near Dijon and founded the monastery of Corbigny, both in France.
  14. ^ The Damascene Icon of the Mother of God, by ancient tradition, was painted by St John of Damascus in gratitude to the Theotokos for the miraculous healing of his right hand, cut off through the perfidy of Emperor Leo the Isaurian. This icon is also known as "Of the Three Hands" Icon of the Mother of God (June 28, and July 12).
