Cyzici, in Propóntide, natális sanctórum Mártyrum Faustæ Vírginis, et Evilásii, sub Maximiáno Imperatóre; e quibus Fausta, ab eódem Evilásio, idolórum sacerdóte, decalváta et ad turpitúdinem rasa, suspénsa et torta est. Deínde, cum eam vellet médiam secáre, et carnífices lǽdere non valérent, stupens crédidit in Christum Evilásius; et, dum ipse quoque, Imperatóris jussu, fórtiter torquerétur, Fausta, cápite terebráta, clavis toto córpore confíxa et sartágine ignítæ impósita, tandem, cum eódem Evilásio, illam voce de cælis vocánte, transívit ad Dóminum.
At Cyzicum, on the sea of Marmora, the birthday of the holy martyrs Evilasius and the virgin Fausta, in the time of Emperor Maximian. Fausta’s head was shaved to shame her, and she was hung up and tortured by Evilasius, then a pagan priest. But when he wished to have her body cut in two, the executioners could not inflict any injury upon her. Amazed at this prodigy, Evilasius believed in Christ and was cruelly tortured by order of the emperor; at the same time Fausta had her head bored through and her whole body pierced with nails. She was then laid on a heated gridiron, and being called by a celestial voice, went in company with Evilasius to enjoy the blessedness of heaven.
