Martyres nostri, quorum natalitia celebramus, sanguinem suum propter haec credita et nondum uisa fuderunt; quanto fortiores nos esse debemus, uidendo quod illi crediderunt?
'Our martyrs, whose annual feast (natalitia) we are celebrating, shed their blood for that in which they had believed, but did not see. How much stronger should be, having seen in what they believed!'
Text: Dekkers & Fraipont 1956. Translation: Robert Wiśniewski.
