Eulalia, a Virgin of Noble Parentage in Eremita, a City in Portugal, of twelve years of age, refusing great Marriages and Dowries, being a Christian, joined her self with Gods Children under the 10th. Persecution; and being kept close by her Parents, lest she should hasten her own death, she by Night stole out and ran to the Judgment Seat, and cried out, I am a Christian, an Enemy to your devilish Sacrifices; I spurn your Idols all under my Feet, I confess God Omnipotent with heart and mouth: Isis, Apollo, Venus, what are they? Maximinus himself, what is he? The one a thing of nought, because the work of Mens hands; and the other a cast-away, because he worshippeth the same work. Whereat the ⟨p. 56⟩Judge incensed, threatened torments, but first persuades her to return and offer Incense; whereat she spits in his Face, spurns abroad with her Feet the Incense; and then was miserably tormented, scratched and cut to the Bones, she singing and praising God, saying, O Lord I will not forget thee! what a pleasure is it, O Christ, for them that remember thy triumphant Victory, to attain to these high dignities? and so she was burned. Vol. 1. p. 120.
