Historical martyrology witness · Martyrologium Romanum (Latin historical edition)
Aretii, in Tuscia, natalis sancti Donati, Episcopi et Martyris; qui, inter cetera virtutis opera (ut scribit beatus Gregorius Papa), calicem sanctum, a Paganis fractum, orando instauravit. Is, in persecutione Juliani Apostatae, a Quadratiano Augustali comprehensus, et, cum sacrificare idolis renuisset, gladio percussus, martyrium consummavit. Passus est etiam cum eo beatus Hilarinus Monachus; cujus memoria decimo septimo Kalendas Augusti recolitur, quo die sacrum ipsius corpus ad Ostia Tiberina translatum fuit.
