Pelagia the Virgin

__NOTOC__
Pelagia (), distinguished as Pelagia of Antioch and Pelagia the Virgin, was a Christian saint, virgin, and martyr who committed suicide during the Diocletian Persecution rather than be forced by Roman soldiers to offer a public sacrifice to the pagan gods. She was 15 years old. Originally, her feast day was celebrated on October 8,〔Wright's Syriac Martyrology.〕 in common with SS Pelagia the Harlot & Pelagia of Tarsus.〔Greek Synaxarion.〕 In the Roman Catholic Church, it came to be celebrated on June 9 and, at Naples in Italy, she is celebrated on October 5.
==Life==
Pelagia is mentioned by AmbroseAmbrose, (''De Virg.'', III, 7, 33 ).〕 and was the subject of two sermons by John Chrysostom.〔Chrysostom, (''Hom. in Matth.'' lxvii. ) 〕 She was home alone during the Diocletian Persecution when Roman soldiers arrived. She came out to meet them and, discovering they intended to compel her to participate in a pagan sacrifice, she received permission to change her clothes. She went to the roof of her house and threw herself into the sea. The patristic sources treat this as a sacred martyrdom rather than an ignoble suicide, usually with reference to the potential that she would have been dishonored by the soldiers.
