Romae natalis sanctorum Martyrum Marcellini Presbyteri, et Petri Exorcistae, qui, sub Diocletiano, cum multos in carcere ad fidem erudirent, ideo, post dira vincula et plurima tormenta, a Sereno Judice decollati sunt in loco qui dicebatur Silva Nigra; quae deinde, in honorem Sanctorum, commutato nomine, Silva Candida appellata est. Horum corpora in crypta, juxta sanctum Tiburtium, sepulta sunt; eorumque sepulcrum sanctus Damasus Papa versibus postea exornavit.
