description: The Martyrologium Hieronymianum is preserved in a number of early manuscripts, which share much in common but also diverge so that it is impossible to reconstruct from them a single authoritative text. Below we, therefore, offer separate English translations of each important early manuscript, and by clicking the 'Datum Table' button, you can view these different versions in their original Latin, set side-by-side for ease of comparison. For a full discussion of the Martyrologium, click 'Discussion/Bibliography.'<br><br><br>The Martyrologium Hieronymianum commemorates on 3 January the following feasts: <br><br>*Cyrinus, Primus, and Theogenes, martyrs of Cyzicus at Hellespont (Asia Minor), ob. 320, (S02211),<br>The burial of *Genovefa/Geneviève (ascetic of Paris, ob. 502/512, S01156),<br>The burial of *Florentus (bishop of Vienne (Gaul), S02213),<br>*Anteros (bishop and martyr of Rome, S00170),<br>The death of *Erembertus, bishop of Toulouse, ob. 674 (S02215),<br>*Narcissus, Argeus, and Marcellinus, martyrs of Tomis (Black sea), 4th cent., (S02737),<br>*Lesser saints, on 3 January in the Martyrologium Hieronymianum: in Tomis and Africa (S02214).<br><br><br>The translation: <br><br>BnF 10837: <br><br>"On the third day before the Nones of January, in Hellespont, in the city of Cyzicus, [the feast of] Ciricus, Primus, Theoginis. <br><br>And in the city of Tomis, [the feast of] Claudion, Eugenis, Rodus, three brothers, Argeus, Narcissus, and Marcellinus, the Christian boys, and Dioginus, Eugentus, Rodon, Prima. <br><br>In Africa, [the feast of] Marcialis, Statulianus, Constantus, Possesor, Hilarinus, Firmus, Candidus, Rogatianus, Eugenia, Lucida, Acuta, Paenica.<br><br>In Paris, [the feast of] virgin Genefeva. <br><br>In Vienne, the burial of Florentus."<br><br><br>Weissenburg 81: <br><br>"On the third day before the Nones of January, in Hellespont, in the city of Cyzicus, [the feast of] Ciricus, Primus, Theugenes. <br><br>And in the city of Thomis, [the feast of] Claudion, Eugenus, Rodus, and three brothers, Argeus, Narcissus, and Marcellinus, the Christian boys, bishop Felus, who suffered under Licinius, and Digoiunus, Eugentus, Rodon, Prima. <br><br>In Africa, [the feast of] Lucideus, Marcialis, Statulianus, Constantus, Possessor, Hilarinus, Pennica, Firmus, Candedus, Rogatianus, Eugenia, Aguta. <br><br>In Paris, the burial of virgin Genoueua.<br><br>In Vienne, the burial of blessed bishop Florentus.<br><br>And the death of bishop Ermbertus."<br><br><br>MS Bern 289:<br><br>"On the third day before the Nones of January, in Hellespont, in the city of Cyzicus, [the feast of] Cyricus, Primus, Theugenis. <br><br>And in the city of Tomis, [the feast of] Claudion, Eugenus, Rodus, and three brothers, Argetus, Narcissus, and Marcellinus, the Christian boys, bishop Anifilius, and Digoiunus, Eugentus, Codon, Prima. <br><br>In Africa, [the feast of] Lucideus, Marcialis, Statulianus, Constantus, Possesor, Hilarinus, Penniceus, Firmus, Candedus, Rogatianus, Eugenia, Acuta. <br><br>In Rome, [the feast of] Pope Antherus.<br><br>In Paris, the burial of the virgin saint Genoueua. <br><br>In Vienne, the burial of the blessed bishop Florentus."<br><br><br>BAV 238 contains the extended text attached to the commemorations in Tomis, related to Filus bishop.
