ON S. PRACATUS OR PANCRATUS A MARTYR IN AFRICA

Commentary

Pracatus, or Pancratus, Martyr in Africa (St.)

G. H.

Solitary this Martyr of Africa is mentioned in four apographs of the Martyrology Hieronymian, and under the name of Pracatus is had in the most ancient Echternach one: but under the name of Pancratus in the other three codices of Lucca, Corbie and Blume. The same also Pancratius is said and is related in the Ms. Hibernian of the monastery of Tamlacht, from another Pancratius above related distinct: inasmuch as he at Rome suffered.
