J. B. S.
This second class of Martyrs of uncertain place is so found in all the codices, that nevertheless the names are here and there dislocated by the fault of the copyists; as Archanareus for Arcaneus; Jacentus for Hyacinthus, etc. Other minutiæ of this kind occur, whether in a changed sex, or in a name added, transposed, or subtracted, in which Florentini busies himself somewhat more scrupulously on this day; we have reviewed the Saints in the number and order in which our Elders did, distinguishing two other lesser classes from this greater one; which nowhere else will you find so disposed. Further, we have judged that Felicissimus should be omitted here, since the same has already recurred more than once above.
