| ID | Title | E02517 | The Latin Martyrdom of *Valentinus (bishop and martyr of Terni, S00434) narrates the healing in Rome by Valentinus, bishop of Terni (central Italy), of the son of an orator called Crato; the conversion of Crato and all his household, together with his Greek students *Proculus, Ephebus and Apollonius (martyrs of Terni, 001549); Valentinus’ arrest, beating and beheading; his burial near Terni in a tomb provided by Proculus, Ephebus and Apollonius; their arrest, beheading and burial next to Valentinus. Written perhaps in Terni, at an uncertain date, by the early 8th c. at the latest. | E05526 | Bede, in his Martyrology, records the feast on 14 February of *Valentinus (bishop and martyr of Terni, S00434). Written in Latin at Wearmouth-Jarrow (north-east Britain), 725/731. | E06541 | The Latin Gelasian Sacramentary (or Liber Sacramentorum Romanae Ecclesiae), probably compiled around 750 near Paris using earlier material from Rome, records prayers to saints on their feast days in February. |
