PARASCEVA OF IKONIUM CRUCIFIED AND TORTURED WITH TORCHES
In 300 A.D., during the reign of emperor Diocletianus, an emissary of the emperor came to Ikonium and organized the persecution of the Christians. Parasceva was among those who refused to make a sacrifice to the pagan gods. She was arrested and cruelly tortured. The executioners suspended her from a tree and raked her with iron nails (or iron combs); they tore her flesh to the bones. Then they cast her into a prison cell to let her die. But her wounds healed miraculously overnight. On the next day she was nailed to a cross and tortured with torches, but she remained steadfast and refused to make the required sacrifice. In the end she was beheaded.

NADEZHA SEVERELY SCOURGED DURING HER EXECUTION
“Nadezhda (Hope) was a young Christian living in Italy. She had two sisters: Vera (Faith) and Liubov' (Love). Their mother, Saint Sophia (Wisdom), was a pious Christian widow. Having named her daughters with the names of the three Christian virtues, Saint Sophia raised them up in love for the Lord Jesus Christ. Saint Sophia and her daughters did not hide their faith in Christ and they openly confessed it before everyone. The official Antiochus denounced them to the emperor Adrian (117-138), who ordered that they be brought to Rome. Realising that they would be taken before the emperor, the holy virgins prayed fervently to the Lord Jesus Christ, asking that He should send them the strength not to fear impending torture and death. When the holy virgins with their mother came before the emperor, everyone present was amazed at their composture: it seemed that they had been called out to some happy festivity, rather than to torture. Summoning the sisters in turn, Adrian urged them to offer sacrifice to the goddess Artemis. The young girls remained unyielding. Then the emperor gave orders to torture them fiercely. Nadezhda was savagely scourged until her body was covered all over with bloody welts; then she was put into a cauldron filled with boiling tar. Her sisters received equally cruel treatment. Undergoing these torments, the holy virgins glorified their Heavenly Bridegroom and remained steadfast in the faith. The mother was forced to look upon the suffering of her daughters. But she displayed adamant courage and during this whole while she urged the girls to endure the torments in the Name of the Heavenly Bridegroom. All three maidens with joy met their martyr's end. They were finally beheaded.”

EULALIA OF MERIDA/BARCELONA TORTURED TO DEATH AS A CHRISTIAN REBEL
Filled with an ardor for martyrdom, Eulalia was a very young woman when she refused to sacrifice to the pagan gods, rebuking the local magistrate for his iniquity. Even when the instruments of torture were placed before her, which she would be spared if only she were to offer a bit of salt and incense, Eulalia was defiant. Cruelly tortured, her breasts and body torn to the bone with iron hooks and then burned with torches, she died when her hair caught fire, suffocated by the smoke and flames. From her mouth, a white dove was seen to come forth and ascend into heaven.
Eulalia was martyred in AD 304, the year Diocletian promulgated his fourth edict against the Christians, requiring sacrifice to the gods, although it may have been the year before, when the first of these edicts was issued.

WILGEFORTIS OF PORTUGAL CRUCIFIED
Wilgefortis was, the legend tells us, a young Christian woman, the daughter of the pagan king of Portugal, and devoted to her faith. But her ambitious father promised her in marriage to the pagan king of Sicily. Wilgefortis was distraught and prayed all night that God would find a way to release her from this obligation. When she awoke in the morning, she told her father she renounced the marriage. But this was not the end of Wilgefortis’ trials. Her father, apoplectic with rage at the thwarting of his plans, had her crucified.

EUPHEMIA OF CHALCEDON CONDEMNED TO DIE AD BESTIAS
Euphemia (Chalcedon, 285 - Chalcedon 303) was a young martyr near Chalcedon, in Bithynia. Being the daughter of nobles (according to tradition, her parents were Philophron and Theodosia), she received a good upbringing, always according to the Christian rules of life to which the family referred. During Diocletian's persecution, at the age of only eighteen, she was arrested along with forty-nine other Christians who had refused to immolate a victim to a pagan deity. Like the others, she was tortured, but always remained faithful to her spiritual ideals by refusing to perform the holocaust. On 16 September 303, she was thrown into the arena of Chalcedon among the ferocious beasts. According to tradition, they (in particular a bear) killed her but, having eaten only her right hand, refused to devour the rest of her body, which was recovered by the other Christians and buried according to custom.

DOROTHEA OF CAESAREA TORTURED WITH TORCHES
The Martyr Dorothea suffered under the emperor Diocletian in either the year 288 or 300. Dorotea was a pious Christian maiden, distinguished by her great beauty, humility, prudence, and God-given wisdom, which astonished many. Arrested upon orders of the governor Sapricius, she steadfastly confessed her faith in Christ and was subjected to tortures. What exactly was done to her is not quite clear; some reports mention whipping and breast torture, others burning with torches, and others dipping into boiling water.

BEATA OF SENS CONDEMNED AD CRUCEM AS A CHRISTIAN REBELLittle seems to be known about a Christian martyr whose name was Beata. She lived and died for her faith in “ager Senonicus” in Gallia (today: region of Sens, France), most likely crucified.
According to the Benedictines' of Ramsgate very copious 'Book of Saints', Beata, with Augustine and Sanctian, were three Spanish Christians who fled to Gaul in time of persecution and were martyred near Sens, where they are still venerated', d. 273, feast day Sept 6th. A more fanciful Catholic online source tells of a 'young Spanish princess' who ran away from her pagan parents, but seems confused whether she was Beata, or Beata was her companion. Others say either or both of the men was her brother.
