Basilides, Cyrinus, Nabor et Nazarius, Romani milites, nobiles genere, et virtute illustres,
|
|
christiana religione suscepta, cum Christum Dei Filium, Diocletiano imperatore,
|
|
prædicarent, ab Aurelio præfecto Urbis comprehensi, et ut diis sacra facerent admoniti, ejus
|
|
jussa contemnentes, missi sunt in carcerem. Quibus orantibus, cum subito clarissima lux
|
|
oborta omnium oculis, qui ibidem essent, carcerem collustrasset: illo cælesti splendore
|
|
commotus Marcellus custodiæ præpositus, multique alii, Christo Domino crediderunt. Verum
|
|
postea e carcere emissi, ab imperatore Maximiano, cum ejus étiam neglecto imperio, unum
|
|
Christum Deum et Dominum in ore haberent, scorpionibus cruciati iterum conjiciuntur in
|
|
vincula: unde septimo die educti, et ante pedes imperatoris constituti, perstiterunt in
|
|
irrisione inanium deorum, Jesum Christum Deum constantissime confitentes. Quam ob rem
|
|
damnati, securi feriuntur. Quorum corpora feris objecta, nec ab illis tacta a Christianis
|
|
honorifice sepulta sunt.

Basilides, Cyrinus, Nabor, and Nazarius were Roman soldiers, of illustrious birth, and
|
|
distinguished gallantry. Having embraced the Christian Religion, and being found publishing
|
|
that Christ was the Son of God, they were arrested by Aurelius, Prefect of Rome under the
|
|
Emperor Diocletian. As they despised his orders to sacrifice to the gods, they were
|
|
committed to prison. While they were at prayer there, a brilliant light broke forth before
|
|
the eyes of all that were there, and shone in all the prison. Marcellinus the keeper of the
|
|
prison and many others were moved by this heavenly glory to believe in the Lord Christ.
|
|
Basilides, Cyrinus, Nabor, and Nazarius were afterwards discharged out of the prison.
|
|
However, in the reign of the Emperor Maximian, when they set light by his commands also, and
|
|
had ever in their mouth that there is but one Christ, one God, and one Lord, they were
|
|
tormented with whips loaded with metal, and again cast into chains. Thence, on the seventh
|
|
day, they were brought out, and set before the Emperor, and there still persisted in mocking
|
|
at the foolish idols, and declaring that Jesus Christ is God. They were accordingly condemned
|
|
to death and beheaded. Their bodies were given to wild beasts to eat, but, as the creatures
|
|
would not touch them, they were reverently buried by the Christians.
