At Le Mans in France, St. Liborius, Bishop and Confessor.
At Rome also St. Rasyphus, Martyr.
In the same city, the passion of St. Primitiva, Virgin and Martyr.
Likewise of the holy martyrs Apollonius and Eugene.
On the same day the birthday of the holy martyrs Trophimus and Theophilus, who were stoned and burned under the Emperor Diocletian and finally were smitten with the sword and crowned with martyrdom.
In Bulgaria, many holy martyrs, whom the wicked Emperor Nicephorus, who laid waste the churches of God, caused to be slain by various kinds of deaths -- by the sword, by the rope, by arrows, by long imprisonment, and by starvation.
At Rome, the holy virgins Romula, Redempta, and Herundo, of whom St. Gregory the Pope writes.
And elsewhere many other holy martyrs, confessors, and holy virgins.
Thanks be to God.
