  2. ^ "The same day, St. Lucia, martyr, a native of Campania. Being arrested and severely tortured by the lieutenant-governor Rictiovarus, she converted him to Christ. To them were added Antoninus, Severinus, Diodorus, Dion, and seventeen others, who shared their sufferings and their crowns."[13]
  3. ^ "At Fiesoli, in Tuscany, St. Romulus, bishop and martyr, disciple of the blessed apostle Peter, who commissioned him to preach the Gospel. After announcing Christ in many parts of Italy, he returned to Fiesoli, and was crowned with martyrdom with other Christians in the reign of Domitian."[13]
  4. ^ "At Rome, the birthday of St. Tranquillinus, martyr, father of the Saints Mark and Marcellian, who were converted to Christ by the preaching of the martyr St. Sebastian. Baptized by the blessed priest Polycarp, he was ordained priest by pope St. Caius. He was arrested while praying at the tomb of blessed Paul on the Octave of the Apostles, and stoned to death by the Pagans, and thus consummated his martyrdom."[13]
  5. ^ "In Campania, St. Dominica, virgin and martyr, in the time of the emperor Diocletian. For having destroyed idols, she was condemned to the beasts, but being uninjured by them, she was beheaded and departed for heaven. Her body is kept with great veneration at Tropea, in Calabria."[13]
  6. ^ "S. Monynna, or Darerca, is said to have received the veil from the hands of S. Patrick, near the pool of Bruigis. She proceeded to associate others with herself, eight virgins, and a widow with her little boy, named Luger, who afterwards became a bishop. They built a church at Roskerry, near Carlingford. Then she removed with her nuns to S. Ibar (d. 500), in the western isles of Ireland, and remained for some time under his direction, first there, and afterwards in an island in the south, called Little Ireland (Beg-Erin), in Wexford harbour. She made the acquaintance of, and often visited, S. Bridget, and is said to have established herself at a distance of four days' journey from that holy woman. She next retired into a cell where she could not see the face of a man, only going out at night. Her church is now called Killevy, near Newry."[26]
  7. ^ Foundress of a number of monasteries in Scotland and England.
  8. ^ A priest from Aquitaine in France, who lived as a hermit near Oberwesel on the Rhine in Germany, now called St Goar.
  9. ^ "In the vicinity of Treves, St. Goar, priest and confessor."[13]
  10. ^ Daughter of Anna, King of East Anglia in England, sister of Sts Etheldred, Ethelburgh and Withburgh and half-sister of St Sethrid. She married Erconbert, King of Kent, and so became mother of Sts Ermenhild and Ercongota. As Queen she founded the convent of Minster in Sheppey. Widowed in 664, she became a nun there, later moving to Ely in 679, where she became abbess.
  11. ^ "According to the popular belief in Brittany, unsupported by any evidence, S. Noaluen or S. Noyala the White, was a British maiden, who floated over to Brittany with her nurse on the leaf of a tree. She was decapitated at Beignan, and walked to Pontivy holding her head in her hands. The chapel dedicated to her at Pontivy was remarkable in the 18th cent. for several interesting paintings on gold grounds representing this fanciful story."[30]
