The third class of Martyrs is of this kind in the Hieronymian Martyrology: "And elsewhere, Marcianus, Enianus, Felicis, Hermogenis, Vincentii, Tertii, Calesti." For "Enianus" in the Echternach codex is read "Antaeus," and the names of Vincent and Calestus are missing. This latter is also in others called "Caliste." In the Tallaght manuscript there is the memorial of Saints Marcian, Enianus, Felix, Hermogenes, Vincent, and Tertius, and the truer account of antiquity is confirmed in three other copies of the Hieronymian Martyrology. And although Vincent and Calestus are missing in the Echternach codex, because Vincent is found among the Martyrs mentioned above, and Calestus or Calista among the Corinthian Martyrs, nevertheless, having made this notice, we leave in this class what is reported among them in other codices. In one manuscript "Hermon" stands for "Hermogenes," which all will easily admit happened through the fault of the scribes.
