Life
For Christ's sake she would not marry, but gave herself to the ascetic life in her mother's house. She took only a little food, and that every other day, and spent her time in prayer and contemplation. She had the gift of clairvoyance. She reposed peacefully, having betrothed her soul to the Lord, around the year 377.
