The Martyrology of Saint Jerome* lists the martyrs Victor, Lucian, Apollinaris, Hilary, Ammon, Boticus, Cyriacus and Eugenius, but apart from their names and feast day, nothing else is known about these holy men. (I. 47)

Grant, we beseech you, almighty God, that the venerable feast of Saints Victor, Lucian, Apollinaris, Hilary, Ammon, Boticus, Cyriacus and Eugenius may increase our devotion and promote our salvation. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God, for ever and ever. Amen.
