general information | In AH 18, the heading is In revelacione. There seems to be little reason for this description, although it may of course derive from the sources used by the editor: the first antiphon of lauds, however, refers to the translation of the saint's relic. The description of the saint as bishop and martyr in AH 28 is erroneous, the manuscript giving presbyter. |
