Fifteen Soldiers, Martyrs at Rome (SS.)

G. H.

The Ms. Martyrology which we found at Rome in the Library of the most Eminent Cardinal Barberini, these Holy Martyrs to us thus represents. At Rome the passion of the holy soldiers, fifteen in number. Where likewise with the same number are referred in the apographs of the Hieronymian Martyrology, at Lucca and Blume; likewise in the Mss. Trier of S. Maximin, Liege of S. Lambert & S. Lawrence, & Ms. Florarium and in the Martyrology of Notker published from the Ms. of the Library of S. Gall among the ancient Lessons of Canisius. In the apograph of Corbie are reckoned only thirteen soldiers. The rest with their names lie hidden.
