Alexandriae sanctae Catharinae, Virginis et Martyris, quae, ob fidei Christianae confessionem, sub Maximino Imperatore, in carcerem trusa, et postmodum scorpionibus diutissime caesa, tandem capitis obtruncatione martyrium complevit. Ipsius corpus, in montem Sinai mirabiliter ab Angelis delatum, ibidem, frequenti Christianorum concursu, pia veneratione colitur.
