The Martyrology of St. Jerome concludes this day with these holy Martyrs of Nicomedia, who are arranged in the Paris edition as follows: At Nicomedia, of Eufrasia, Domitianus, Macedonius, Patricia, Lucius, Duonius. Likewise of Domitianus, Scalleria, Pacta, Pion, Phronimus, Callidus. Likewise of Dion, Severinus, Petronius a boy, Salvianus, Julianus, Felix, Hilarius, Concessus, Martialis. All the same names are found in three other copies of the Martyrology of St. Jerome; only Lucas is written in place of Lucius, and in the Antwerp copy Duomini, Sallaeruae, Piomi, and Silvianus in place of Duonius, Scalleria or Scaleruva, Pion, and Salvianus. In the manuscripts of Augsburg (St. Ulrich's) and Paris there are Eufraxia (here called Eufrasia) and Martialis. In the Aachen manuscript there are Eufraxia and Macedonius. Notker has the following: Likewise at Nicomedia, of many Martyrs. These are set at thirty-two in the manuscripts of Trier (St. Martin's) and Utrecht (St. Savior's); concerning which number we treated above, when we recorded the other Nicomedian Martyrs. Those who are listed in the Tamlacht manuscript as Salivus and Cionius are perhaps the Salvianus and Pionius here mentioned.
