“The Longobards,” says Twisck, “apprehended
many Christians, and sought to compel them, to eat
meat which they had offered to their idols; and
when they refused, they put them to death. They
also put to death four hundred who would not worship
their gods.” Chron., page 216, col. 1.

As to what might be adduced concerning the
confession of faith of these slain persons, and how
far we accept them as martyrs, see the foregoing
notice.
