Lord, have mercy. In the times of that Emperor Lukianos, there was a great persecution against Christians. And all who were saved by good service to Christ also paid tribute to that judge Agrikolas, for he was a defiled and perverted man, and he hastened to fulfill the will of the devil. And the Christians who were among that people, he compelled them to sacrifice.
