Notes
edit- ^ The notation Old Style or (OS) is sometimes used to indicate a date in the Julian Calendar (which is used by churches on the "Old Calendar").
The notation New Style or (NS), indicates a date in the Revised Julian calendar (which is used by churches on the "New Calendar"). - ^ Artemius, a jailer in one of the Roman prisons, with his wife Candida and daughter Paulina, was converted to Christ by St Peter the exorcist and baptised by St Marcellinus. Artemius was beheaded and his wife and daughter buried alive under a pile of stones.[18]
- ^ "At Rome, St. Artemius, with his wife Candida and his daughter Paulina. Artemius became a believer through the preaching and miracles of St. Peter the Exorcist, who was baptized with all his house by the priest St. Marcellinus. By order of the judge Serenus, he was scourged with whips strung with leaden balls, and struck with the sword. His wife and daughter were forced into a pit and overwhelmed with stones and earth."[19]
- ^ "At Noyon, in France, the holy martyrs Amatius, Alexander, and their companions."[19]

- ^ He became Bishop of Milan in Italy in 512 and spent large amounts of money paying the ransoms of many of his flock who had been taken prisoner by barbarians.
- ^ First Bishop of Tuam in Connaught in Ireland, where he established a monastery of which St Brendan of Clonard and St Colman of Cloyne were monks.
- ^ He was a brave defender of the Church against the Kings of Lombardy. His opponents waylaid him and drowned him in the River Reno near Bologna.
- ^ A bishop from Wales who founded monasteries in Devon and Cornwall. By many he is said to be the Gurval who succeeded St Malo at Aleth in Brittany. His relics are venerated in Ghent in Belgium.[18]

- S. Gurwall was born in Britain, and is said — but this is questionable — to have been for some time a disciple of S. Brendan in Ireland, and to have succeeded him as abbot. Thence he went into Brittany, and became known to S. Malo, bishop of Aleth, who designated him as his successor. But, after holding the see a year and a few months, he wearied of his charge, and having appointed Colfineth, his archdeacon, to succeed him, retired with some of his clergy to the monastery of Gurn, which he had built; but not finding there the solitude he desired, he spent the rest of his days in a cavern above the sea."[25]
- ^ Born in Franche-Comté, in France, he became a priest and monk and then Abbot of Condat in the Jura mountains. In 685 he became Bishop of Besançon. After his repose his monastery became known as Saint-Claude.[18]

В последующее время память блаженного Василия стала совершаться и 10 мая — в память о перенесении его мощей из Мангазеи. Ранее память святому совершалась в монастыре еще и 6 июня, день явления его мощей (по другим источникам, кончина св. Мученика Василия Мангазейского приходится на 4 апреля 1602 года).[39]
