The Holy Martyr Lucy.

Commemorated July 6 in the Orthodox Christian Menaion

From the Prologue

The barbarian King Austius made her a slave in Campania. He wanted to have her live with him, but she resisted. The king left her in peace, to live in asceticism. She brought the king to the Faith because, by her prayers, he was victorious in battle. Later, they both suffered for Christ in Rome, in about 300.
