In Perside sancti Jacobi intercisi, Martyris conspicui, qui, tempore Theodosii junioris, cum in Isdegerdis Regis gratiam Christum negasset, et propterea mater ejus et uxor ab ipsius se consuetudine subtraxissent, hinc, in se reversus, intrepide coram Vararane, Isdegerdis filio ac successore, se Christianum esse confessus est; ideoque ab irato Rege, lata in eum mortis sententia, membratim jussus est concidi et capite obtruncari. Quo etiam tempore innumeri alii Martyres ibidem passi sunt.
