Source heading; not independently verified

After the death of Eulalia an account is given
(from Prudentius) of another Christian maiden,
called Eucratis, who by her steadfastness in suffering,
and the violence with which she took the kingdom
of heaven, put to shame the spirit of this world,
at Cæsar Augusta. The ancients tell us in what
manner this heroine of Jesus Christ was martyred,
namely, that she was not only tormented on her
sides with rods and other iron instruments, but that
her breasts were cut off, so that her liver could be
seen; hence, having been put back into prison,
she very miserably died (yet with a glad hope), in
consequence of the putrefaction of the wounds,
which she had received for the name of Jesus
Christ. See Mell. as cited above, from Steph.
Hym. 4. Flos. Sanct. Hisp. Mart. Rom., 16 April.
