ON SS. MENGENES, GAJANUS, JOVINUS

MARTYRS AT EPHESUS IN ASIA.

[Commentary]

Mengenes, Martyr at Ephesus in Asia (S.)

Gajanus, Martyr at Ephesus in Asia (S.)

Iduinus, Martyr at Ephesus in Asia (S.)

G. H.

Three Martyrs of the city of Ephesus report four
apographs of the Martyrology of Jerome:
also Notker with MS. of Trier of S. Maximinus
& another of the Queen of Sweden by Holstenius
praised, with some variety however. For
for Ephesus is read in MS. Echternach Efera, & for
Mengenis, in the codex of the Queen of Sweden is Mingenis, in
Notker Miogenis. In place of Gajanus is in MSS. of Corbie
printed at Paris & Blume Gajoni, & in the Lucca
Guioni: in the same three is also Juvini, in others Jovini.
In another Corbie not yet printed is celebrated the memory,
in the city of Ephesus of Mengenes & Gajoni. In MSS.
of Reichenau & Rheinau Gajanus & Jovinus at Ephesus.
In MS. Augsburg of S. Vdalricus & Gellonensian is the name Mengenus
the Martyr, for which in MS. of Paris of Labbe is read
Megethus. In MS. of Tamlachta are the names of Gajanus, & Jovenus.
Again on XIV June are reported SS. Miggenes, Gallianus,
Juvinus Martyrs at Ephesus, as there will be said.
