Notes

  1. ^ The notation Old Style or (OS) is sometimes used to indicate a date in the Julian Calendar (which is used by churches on the "Old Calendar").
    The notation New Style or (NS), indicates a date in the Revised Julian calendar (which is used by churches on the "New Calendar").
  2. ^ The Church’s hymns today invite us to “ascend the holy mountain” and “with the eyes of faith,” to “behold the radiant Transfiguration of the Lord.” Christ has transformed our fallen human nature and restored its original beauty “by the burning radiance of His divinity.”[2]
  3. ^ "At Constantinople, the holy martyrs Julian, Marcian, and eight others. For having set up the image of our Saviour on the brazen gate, they were exposed to many torments, and then beheaded by order of the impious emperor Leo."[12]
  4. ^ Secundian seems to have been a prominent official.
  5. ^ "In Tuscany, the birthday of the holy martyrs Secundian, Marcellian, and Verian. In the time of Decius, they were scourged by the ex-consul Promotus, then racked and torn with iron hooks. Being burned with fire applied to their sides, they merited the triumphant palm of martyrdom by having their heads struck off."[12]
  6. ^ Numidicus was dragged still breathing out of the ashes of the funeral pyre and was ordained priest by St Cyprian.
  7. ^ "In Africa, the commemoration of many holy martyrs, during the persecution of Valerian. Being exhorted by St. Numidicus, they obtained the palm of martyrdom by being cast into the fire, but Numidicus, although thrown into the flames with the others and overwhelmed with stones, was nevertheless taken out by his daughter. Found half dead, he was restored and deserved afterwards by his virtue to be made priest of the church of Carthage by blessed Cyprian."[12]
  8. ^ "At Rome, St. Romanus, soldier, who was moved by the torments of blessed Lawrence to ask for baptism from him. He was immediately prosecuted, scourged, and finally beheaded."[12]
  9. ^ Their relics are enshrined at Saint-Amour in Burgundy.
  10. ^ In 830 his relics were translated to the monastery of Marmoutier.
  11. ^ He was exiled and worked as a gardener for seven years, without making himself known. At length he was discovered and recalled.
  12. ^ The town of Kilmore in Ireland grew up around his cell and he is the main patron-saint there.
