FORM ORDINARY
called and elected the glory of the Lord
From "Narrative of the martyrdom of the holy martyrs Carthaginians'
( Chapter 18. 20-21, Edo. van Beek, Nijmegen, 1936, pp. 42. 46-52)
Perpetua was first thrown up from the cow and fell on its side. So he got up and seeing Happiness thrown to the ground, he approached her, gave her hand and stood up. And both stood up together. Won the hardness of the crowd, were recalled to port Sanavivaria. There
Perpetua, welcomed by a catechumen called Cottage that stood by, and as awakened from sleep (and so was out of the senses ravished in ecstasy), began to look around and said to their surprise of all: When we are exposed there in that cow? ". And having heard what had already happened, he would not believe before you have noticed signs of abuse on his body and dress. So, did call his brother and then a catechumen, he urged them, saying, "Be strong in faith, love each other and do not take any occasion of scandal from our suffering."
turn Vivid at another door was Pudens exhorting the soldiers. He said in part: "So just like I understood and predicted, so far I have not experienced any fair. But now I believe with all my heart here I go down there and I'll be finished by a single bite of a leopard. "
And now, at the end of the show, thrown into the leopard, with a single bite was wet with blood so that the people gave testimony to his second Baptism shouting: 'It is safe unless the washed washed. " unless it was really the one who had washed in this way! Then the soldier said
Pudente: "Farewell, remember the faith and to me these things do not trouble you, but you confirm." At the same time he give the ring of his finger in his wound immersolo and gave it back as an inheritance, leaving the pawns and the memory of his blood. He was lying then, now lifeless, along with others in the usual place for the coup de grace.
And since the people claiming that these were brought into public view in the center of the amphitheater, to be able to fix his eyes on their limbs, with the complicity of the assassination, as the sword penetrated in their body, they rose spontaneously and went where the people wanted, after the first kiss to end with the martyrdom of this solemn rite of peace.
All others received the sword still and silent: so much more saturated, which in the vision of Perpetua had climbed to first, first gave up the ghost. In fact, he was waiting for Perpetua. It then enjoy a bit of pain, pierced to the bone, gave a shout, and she guided his hand to his throat of gladiator uncertain, yet rookie. Perhaps a woman of such magnitude, which was feared by the unclean spirit, could not have died otherwise, if he had not wanted her own.
O valiant and most blessed martyrs! Voi siete davvero i chiamati e gli eletti alla gloria del Signore nostro Gesù Cristo!
