FROM THE MARTYROLOGY ( to be chanted )

..
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
of those saints we know the listing follows
 


saint orm married saint rain
gave birth to saint iff and saint ave

this is the oldest family
saint iff married saint rive
gave birth to saint reat
who married saint agnes
gave birth to saint rand
 
saint ave married saint raits
gave birth to saint ranglehold
who did not marry

of the other families
these we mention
saint ill married saint ove
gave birth to saint and & saint rike
saint and did not marry

saint rike married saint ain
gave birth to their son
the nameless one

saint aggers wife is now forgotten
gave birth to saint ump & saint rap
gave birth to noone
dying in the fire reat had set
