St Bibiana

St. Bibiana was Virgin and Martyr. Other than the name, nothing is known for certain about this saint. However, according to a later tradition, She had christian parents, Flavian, a Roman knight, and Dafrosa, his wife.

In the year 363, Julian the Apostate made Apronianus Governor of Rome. St Bibiana suffered in the persecution started by him.

Flavian was tortured and sent into exile, where he died of his wounds. Dafrosa was beheaded, and their two daughters, Bibiana and Demetria, were stripped of their possessions and left to suffer poverty. They remained in their house, spending their time in fasting and prayer.

Apronianus, seeing that hunger and want had no effect upon them, summoned them. Demetria, after confessing her Faith, fell dead at the feet of the tyrant.

St Bibiana was reserved for greater sufferings. She was placed in the hands of a wicked woman called Rufina, who in vain endeavored to seduce her. She used blows as well as persuasion, but the Christian virgin remained faithful.

Enraged at the constancy of this saintly virgin, Apronianus ordered her to be tied to a pillar and beaten with scourges, laden with lead plummets, until she expired.

The saint endured the torments with joy, and died under the blows inflicted by the hands of the executioner. Her feast day is on 2nd December.
