G. H.
The ancient manuscript Martyrologies, those of Liessies in Hainaut and of the monastery of St. Martin at Tournai, as well as Hermannus Greven in his Additions to Usuard, have the following for the eleventh of February: In Campania, of Basilianus and Amantius. The Roman manuscript Martyrology under the name of St. Jerome: In Campania, of Basilianus, and elsewhere, of Amantius, Tulicus. The Reichenau manuscript, omitting Basilianus, has: And elsewhere, of Amantius, Tulicus, Zoticus, Cyriacus. We have already treated above of the last two. Moreover, Campania is the well-known region of Italy adjacent to Latium, of which very many Saints are recorded in this work, among whom on this day St. Castrensis the Bishop is venerated. We have treated of another Amantius, but a Roman Martyr, on the tenth of February.
